What's On My Desk
























Sorry gang! I wish I had a finished project for you today, but I'm off to work today and couldn't finish this one in time. BUT at least you all get a list of the Copics I used on this BEYOND ADORABLE C.C. Designs Pumpkin Pixie. She is SOOOOOOO great! I'm trying to decide what to do with her, and I'm thinking about putting her on the top of a treat box. As soon as I finish this project, I will post it. This one is going to take a little thought, but I know that as soon as the project is done, it's going to be great!

  • I also wanted to post a little reminder of the Challenge that is running until Halloween. Create an original project with the theme of "Crazy Halloween" and post it to the InLinkz at the bottom of the challenge post.... CLICK HERE... and receive these AWESOME Tickled Pink Lil Lolita stamps! Good luck to everyone who enters.
  • And don't forget that I'm also giving away the October 31st Seasonal Cricut cartridge.... check out the deets HERE. Speaking of which, I haven't heard from the winner of my blog candy from the Little Hop of Horrors. If anyone knows Chris (the winner of the random drawing), please have her email me. Thanx everyone!

Welp, that's about all for today. Have a great one gang! 23 DAYS TILL HALLOWEEN!!!

Past 7 Days....

So Lame

So over at Paper Vineyard, the challenge was to create a birthday project and it COULDN'T be a card.  I've personally been creating WAY too many cards lately so I was happy to try my hand at something new..... only I didn't. :(  Instead, I was busy preparing for last week's Cricut Swarm.  Now, while I missed creating a project specifically for our Birthday Non-Card challenge, I figured the cupcake box that I made would fit the bill PERFECTLY for a birthday-themed project.  The box also has an insert for a cupcake to fit inside.  I made it with my Cricut (cuz of the whole Cricut Swarm bit) and while I ADORE this box, I sort of had a little melt down making it and I decided that this is the last Provo Craft product I will ever buy.... let me share why (read through to find out the cartridge I used for this project)! Most of you know that I DESPISE Provo Craft.  I hate that the Cricut is a one-of-kind product that I loved....

The BEST Copic Storage

**** HUGE HALLOWEEN GIVE AWAY... CLICK HERE !!!!**** Ok, so I've done posts in the past about various Copic storage solutions, but I was given THE MOTHER of all storage ideas by my friends Jennie Black and Krista Koenig!!!   Let me share with you the construction of the storage box and then I'll finish this off with the BRILLIANT solution my husband came up with.... cuz I married a GENIUS!!! What you'll need to create the AWESOME storage box pictured here is: 1 Double Deep Art Bin 1 plastic grid for ceiling lighting (found at your local home improvement store) 1 half inch thick wooden square dowel (also found at your local home improvement store) Dimensional adhesive squares Wire cutters or sheers Screws with corresponding drill bit Drill So I first cut the ceiling grid down to 19 squares by 19 squares using my wire cutters.   You will need two 19 x 19 sections of grid material.   The wire cutters went through the plastic material of the grid like b...

Evil Twin

*This is my second post of the day, for my inspiration project for Paper Vineyard, please scroll down.* Ok gang... are you ready for a fun one?!?  This time the challenge over at The Burtonesque Dolls is TWINS!!!  Flip an image to create TWINS!  Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum have NOTHIN on The Burtonesque Dolls BABY!!!  Check it out!  So I couldn't help myself!  I'm so in love with the Pipper new release over at Simply Betty Stamps , I had to reuse her again for this challenge.  I mean, come on.... she NEEDED an evil twin, didn't she?!?  hahahahahahaha!  It's hard to believe that she's the good one!!!  LOL!  I just wish this looked as good in the pic as it looks in real life.  For some reason I just couldn't get a good shot of this.  The row of black roses look perfect paired with that cute skullie.  That skullie is actually a button.  I removed the shank and filled the eyes with red stickles....
