Halloween Wreath

Happy Halloween Wreath!

Here's the wreath I promised. It might not look like much, but I hand tied each little piece of tulle onto it and it took a whole roll! I LOVE tulle! Actually, the more I look at it, the cuter I think it is! Enjoy!

Have a great week-end!

EDITED TO ADD:

I used a brass metal circle thing used for sewing to tie the tulle around. You can get them at any craft store, but I think I got mine on sale at JoAnns for like a quarter or something. :) Hope this helps!

This crazy life of mine

Hello to those of you who are still connected to and reading my greatly lacking blog! I apologize that it's been so long since I've done anything and that my posts are so far apart! I've been dealing with a lot of things lately, from a teenager who doesn't seem motivated to even brush his teeth to the brutal death of one of my favorite cousins to the surgery to break up my ever loving kidney stones (I like to tell people that "my rock band is getting liposuction" lol <--That's happening on Thursday!). I have made a few cards lately, but photographing them hasn't happened. I've been doing it more as a requested job rather than a fun hobby. My mind has just been elsewhere. With that being said, I've made a decision about my blog. No, I'm not going to quit it! I'm just going to change it up! I've been wanting to make things other than cards, so I'm going to start posting all my crafting and baking and computer generated works and other things about my life here. I hope that sounds ok to all of you!

So let me tell you what you'll be seeing next:

I'm working on a Halloween wreath right now and it's soooo cute! I'm hoping to get it finished later this week, since I'll be sitting around for a couple of days healing. I can't wait to post the photographs of the finished product! It's going to be awesome!

Thank you for stopping in today! May the rest of your week be blessed!

Blessings!

Blessings!

With a Cherry On Top

Here's a card I made using a Meljen's image. They have adorable images and they also have a challenge blog! This week they want you to submit the first card you ever made using one of their images and since I never published this one on my blog, I thought now might be a good time. I'm going to enter it in their contest where someone will win a free image! Enjoy the simplicity!
Blessings!

Question about Cricut

Hey everyone out there in blogger land! I have a question! I have a cricut, just a small one, but I want to be able to use cutting files from other places. Can someone tell me how this can be done? I've heard of "Sure-Cuts-A-Lot" but according to their website, they do not support Cricut machines. What does this mean? Can I still use SCAL with my cricut or can I not use it? HELP! I want to do so much more with my Cricut and I don't want my husband to think he made a mistake in purchasing it because I'm so limited on what I  can do with it! Thanks for any and all comments/help you can give me!
Have a wonderful week-end!
Blessings!

Happy Birthday Marci & Luka!

"Bee-lated" Birthday Card

Good morning! I apologize for not having posted in so long! Life has gotten really busy this summer and being sick and not wanting to do anything didn't help! It's really bad when you don't even want to go into your favorite place in the house, you craft room! But, I'm feeling tons better and was able to make 3 cards in one hour the other night! Woo Hoo! Anyway, here's a simple "Bee-lated" birthday card I made for a girl at work who's birthday we celebrated a little late. I thought the bees on this paper were perfect for this card!

Enjoy and have a blessed day!
