My Christmas Cards









Hello Paper Crafters!
I told you I have been busy making Christmas cards, well here is the Christmas card that I designed and sent out. I know it is simple but when your sending out 50+ cards you don't want a card that takes you 15-20 minutes to make. I got these knocked out over the course of a few nights. I helped my mom make hers and that took some time, she isn't a card maker or scrapbooker, really she isn't very crafty at all. She had a lot of fun, mostly watching me but I really enjoyed the time with her. I think I overwhelmed her but I came up with an even simpler card for her with less layering for her to do. I picked up almost all of the items from Hobby Lobby, I had so much fun with he glitter! All of it. ;)
Well ladies I hope you enjoyed my card! If I'm not back on here before Christmas, I hope it is a merry one for you! If I don't get on here before Christmas I hope everyone has a beautiful Christmas filled with more love than you ever imagined!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!~

Sorry I've been MIA

Hi Awesome Papercrafters!
I have been neglectful of my perty blog. I've visited it, I just haven't posted anything. I have a few reasons.
1. I could not find my cable to hook up to my camera so I could upload pretty pictures of my cool paper stuff!
2. I've been making Christmas cards, Christmas party paper stuffs and lot's of candy and stuff in the kitchen. My kids love it, I do too!
3. I'M PREGNANT! Yep, hubby, Austin, Cody and I are expecting a new addition to the family. We're still not out of the woods yet and we had a big scare but I'm giving it to God. Whatever happens he will get us through it! I'm thinking PINK!

Well I still have a few cards I need to make for neighbors and some gifts, plus I'm watching the UK v Austin Peay game. GO UK! I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday season and Christmas if I do not post anything. I have some things to post so I should be soon!

Merry Christmas and Happy paper crafting!

Halloween Treat Boxes







Hello fellow paper and stamp lovers! Today I have something to share with you and I am so happy with them! I made treat boxes for my sons 3rd grade class today and they were such a hit! Even the boys wanted to know how to make them. :) I had little girls come up to me after they ate the candy and want me to fix them back so they could take them home. I'm happy mommy and crafter! The paper was awesome because I used one side of it for the boys (black skull side) and the purple side I used for the gilrs. Perfect! I got the idea here. It is Splitcoaststampers on youtube, Beate. It is an awesome video and I got to use my new Scor Pal! LOVE IT! :O) Anyways I hope you enjoy :O)

Hugs,

My Scor Pal is on the way!




How lucky am I? I joined YouTube in hopes of making some videos (still working on that one) and I came across a great youtube channel called Custom Crops. Each week they pick someone for a $20 off coupon on their site, the catch, all you have to do is leave a comment! How awesome! Plus their site has some really great stuff, I asked them about copics and they got some! Their customer service is incredible! I am definitely looking forward to ordering from them again.

So with that $20 off I got a Scor Pal! They have it for $39.95 with free shipping, my total: $19.95 on my Scor Pal! SCOR!!! I'm so silly. Anyways I have purchased some great spooky paper to make some treat holders for my sons 3rd grade class, they will love it and I just cannot wait to get my hands on it! I've been wanting one for sooo long!

Well I hope you all have a wonderful Wednesday!

Happy Paper Crafting!~

I am a bad blogger!







It isn't just that I am a bad blogger. I just haven't really been feeling "crafty". My craft table has been a mess and I've been unmotivated to do anything about that. Well I finally picked it up and tossed a bunch of stuff. Here are a few things that I have been working on.

The card is for a Barnabas Pal at my church. She is a senior in college away at school and we send letters, cards and packages to them to support them being away at college. When I heard about this program I said "sign me up!" I can send them cards, I immediately thought, I want a girl so I can make my cards girly. :)

The mini album I made for my mom out of toilet paper rolls. I loved this! It was so much fun. She absolutely loved the album. She didn't believe me when I told her what it was made of. My boys thought it was so funny when they saw me making it but thought their Mamaw would love it.

Anyways I hope to be a better crafter and blogger. Wish me luck with that! lol
