 Featured TODAY: 
Paper Doll Frances
Bundle Up and Her Majesty

I made this for my oldest daughter. She is 8 and this is her first paper doll. Needless to say, Mom has lost these stamp sets, lol.  She has her own craft box, and I keep finding them in there.


For Frances, I decided to make a box card to keep her and all her clothes in.
 And when it is closed, it lays flat.


I used Prismacolor Pencils and Odorless Mineral Spirits

Here are a couple of closeups. I used Stickles to give the outfits some bling.




I hope you like my Frances in a Box Card project.

My Favorite Craft Tools and Giveaway!!!

Hi everyone, Today's video is a fun one for me. Since getting back into crafting I have noticed that I am pulling certain items over and over again and thought it would be fun to share with you. Two years ago, I took a step back from crafty and downsized 75% of my craft room.  However with just these awesome tools, I have been able to get back into the swing of things and I don't miss having a larger craft room.

Building Block Graduation Card

Hello, everyone! Melissa here on to share a "building block" style card with you. I made this one graduation themed, since there are a ton of graduations going on right now. Hope you enjoy this card, and are inspired to try it out yourself. Here is the tutorial I followed from Split Coast Stampers. To make it easier, I will give you all the measurements, here. It looks harder than it is, I promise. Start with a piece of cardstock in your desired color that is 5.5 x 10.5. Put the 10.5 inch side along the top of your score board or paper trimmer, and score at 3.5 inches and 7 inches. Fold the first score line in a mountain fold, and the second in a valley fold. You should end up with a "z" fold card. The next part can get a bit tricky, so make sure you watch the video to fully understand what I am about to explain. On the back side of the "valley" fold, take a ruler and pencil and mark these measurements: 3/8 1 3/8 1 5/8 2 5/8 2 7/8 3 7/8
