Arrange a Wreath Freebie Friday Fun

 Okay... so last week during Freebie Friday we featured some really fun cards.  OF COURSE I slipped in a little Autumn "thankful" card.... (the link to the free PDF download is under the last pic)


One of the leaves and the acorn were LITERALLY punched right from one of the Gilded Autumn designer series paper pages.... the images punch out perfectly.  That made this project soooooo easy to complete!  And I think it's got quite a wow-factor for how simple it was.


Now the NEXT project was a Christmas card using this oh-so-versatile Arrange A Wreath Bundle:

Again... I kept it simple so for anyone getting started on their holiday card making, they can bust out 100 or so rather easily but with a seriously stunning design!  BUT THEN....


We made this super pretty Magnetic Wreaths using a 3" circle base and then attaching a square from a magnet sheet to the back making this a refrigerator magnet.  WELLLLLLL....

This girl just combined the two to make a SO-VERY-AWESOME gift/card or card/gift.... well, here:


I added another magnet square (simply cut from a magnet sheet... the same sheets I use to make my die holders that I glue to cardboard).... NOW the magnet becomes the sentiment to the inside of the card!



Isn't that just so fun?!?!  Here's the link to the free PDF to make this for yourself:  Click Here

Okay... that about does it!  Hope you guys enjoyed this one.  I'm so super proud of myself for getting started on my holiday cards early.  Like I MAY just not have to stand in the crazy lines at the post office this year.... maybe....

MY VERY FIRST CRICUT CARTRIDGE GIVE AWAY!

Ok ... so the time has come. I've got some BRAND NEW, NEVER BEEN USED, STILL IN THE PLASTIC Cricut Cartridges to give away over the next couple of months and it starts with one of my ALL-TIME FAVORITES...... Hannah Montana! YAY! I LOVE this cartridge! It's got the most beautiful guitar images along with musical notes and FIVE fonts! I used the regular font and the rock star font to create my Father's Day card this year (see above). I also used the Hannah Montana cart (see below) to create a beautiful butterfly (FREE Gypsy cut file HERE ), and am currently working on a project using the gorgeous solitaire diamond. There's a rose and lips and decorative hearts, even a Pegasus ! There's just so much on this cartridge.... I use it a lot! To call this a "font" cartridge is terribly misleading. It's been a long time favorite and now I'm THRILLED to be able to give it away to one of my awesome readers! So here's how to win: Become one of my follower

The Old Clunker

A few years back I received a Creative Zen Micro Photo for Christmas. It was wonderful! The fact that I could finally carry around all my music in a super small (or I thought at the time)2.25" x 3.5" music player was sheer freedom from carrying around that old, large, portable cd player and I won't even go into the tons of music cds that also had to go along for the ride. Ok... so I'll mention them briefly, hahahahaha! And I was also surprised by how much lighter this music player was. At 5.5 oz., wearing it fashionably on an armstrap to the gym put me in the leagues with the top fitness buffs. Then something shifted... I was no longer hip, or in, or cool anymore. Suddenly everything shrunk and my music player was now a gigantic dinosaur! What the heck?!? Now everyone was sporting music players that were as big as the face of a watch and were a million times lighter than mine. All of a sudden I was back in the 7th grade trying to convince my mom to buy me the latest

The Inventor Of the TV Dinner Should Be Slapped!

Close observation of my eating shows that I can scarf my tuna casserole at an alarming rate. I sit in front of the TV to eat my dinner and 5 minutes later I am pushing the plate away with little to no memory of ever have eaten. That is interesting to me because, you see, I LOVE FOOD! I also LOVE being thin. These facts SHOULD come to life by the knowledge that if I took smaller bites and chewed thoroughly , not only would I get to enjoy my food that much longer, but I would also be burning more calories (yes, the activity of chewing burns calories!!!!)! And on top of THAT amazing knowledge, my body would also be able to process the food I eat much better therefore more of the food I consume would be utilized to help build my lean mean body. So what the heck is up???? Why DON'T I slow down my eating knowing all these amazing benefits? What's causing this little glitch? Those are the very questions I asked myself at the start of this year. I knew the answer before I ever wrote th
