What's Coming....

I'M SO EXCITED!!! Later this month I will be giving away a brand new Cricut cartridge!!! I've always wanted to give away Cricut cartridges and, in fact, tried to line up some cartridges to give away during my birthday give-away this year, but couldn't line any up to give. Well things have changed!!! I recently had the opportunity to pick up some BRAND NEW, AND UNOPENED Disney cartridges and I'm so excited to give them away. Stay tuned for more info, but the first one will be given away during the month of September.

AND THEN....
Everyone knows that I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Halloween, so for this year's fun festivities I bought the Cricut Seasonal Pumpkin Carvings cartridge to give away during the month of October. And if I get a huge response, I might run out and buy the Cricut Seasonal October 31st companion cartridge to give away too. I bought these two for myself about a month ago and I LOVE THEM! These two cartridges probably should be saved for next year's "Favorite Things" birthday give away.... but who can wait!?! I'm too excited! I mean, it IS Halloween!!!

And who knows, maybe next year I'll have a generous Cricut/craft sponsor to add to all of my other wonderful sponsors that made this past "Favorite Things" birthday give away ROCK!!! You can check out all of my wonderful sponsors HERE! Wouldn't I LOVE for that list to include crafting and scrapbooking!!!
Anyway, I hope all of my readers are as excited about the upcoming give aways as I am! I'll be sure to keep everyone posted, so check back often! :)

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....
