My tote

Today instead of paper crafting, I decided to work on my tote for my Cameo.  I wanted something that matches the dust covers I've already made.  I absolutely love this fabric.  So here it is =)

It has straps to hold it nicely in place while in transit.  You can see my reversible dust cover over my machine.  I am taking orders for these but have not yet priced them!  Pricing will be added to my Facebook page.

Thank you all!

I would just like to thank everyone for hopping along with us yesterday and for all your kind words!  I truly enjoyed reading every comment =)  I had so much fun and look forward to the next hop!


Thanks and have a great day =)

For my project, I have created this fun 3d floral arrangement that is decorating my kitchen island. Everything is made from paper, including the crate!

Files used:
SVG Cuts ~ Caramel Apple Pie
Silhouette Store ~ Forest Fox & 3d Tulip
Scraptastical Kreations ~ Elegant Floral Flower #2 & KISS Spring (Butterfly)

Paper is Recollections, Core 'dinations, and the Paper Studio

Other miscellaneous items used:
Brads, Tim Holtz Distress Ink, Homemade Glimmer Mist, Buttons

I decorated the crate with the cute little fox. This little guy is just adorable! I love how he turned out. Using a floral block, I covered it with a dark green paper, then hot glued some moss to the top. All the flowers were misted with homemade glimmer mist and layered to give them dimension. Now I don't have to worry about them dyeing ~ they will always be there to brighten my day =)
















Now for some extra fun, I will be giving one lucky hopper this custom made Cameo dust cover!! In order to win my blog candy, you must follow my blog and LIKE my Facebook page (click here!). I will use random.org to choose the winner ~ which will be posted on my Facebook page Wednesday, March 28th after I verify both requirements have been met.


We would like to thank you all for hopping along with us, and we hope that you were inspired in some way, shape or form to create some of the fun projects shared with you today. Your next stop is Rebekah!

Easter Layout

I want to share a little project I was working on. I had intended for this to be on a card, but my pieces were too big... so I turned it into a cute layout. I changed up the 'Delivering Some Love' set and made it perfect for Easter. I added bunny ears to the bears, filled the wagon with jelly beans, peeps, and a chocolate bunny. All the files I used are located in the Scraptastical Kreations store (www.scraptasticalkreations.com).

Great Outdoors ~ Great Mini =)

Today I am sharing this adorable mini album.  These are quickly becoming a huge favorite of mine to make.  The papers were perfect for the image I had in my head and that cute little critter was the cherry on top.


The papers used for the base and striped background are from Recollections.  The mats are from the DCWV's Green Stack.
Mini Album file is from Scraptastical Kreations.
Adorable raccoon is from Scraptastical Kreations Campfire Tales set.
Added a cute owl button and a 3d butterfly brad, topped with matching ribbons and eyelets.

St. Patty's Door Hanger

Today I created this cute little door hanger for St. Patty's Day.  I used the shamrocks from Scraptastical Kreations 'Beary Lucky' set.  I added the title 'May the LUCK be with you' to wish all those that passed through the door a bit of good luck.




I am entering my kreation in Monica's Creative Madness Cameo Creations Challenge #3

This is my 'Scrap-Lift This' project for Scraptastical Kreations. I used 'My First Easter' set found at www.scraptasticalkreations.com to decorate this frame. The egg was finished with some embossing powder to make it shiny and slick, like a real egg =)

You can enter the weekly 'Scrap-Lift This' challenges on the fan page each week for a chance to win $15 in free files =)

Dust Covers

Today was not a scrappy paper day ~ rather a sewing day!  Been very busy making dust covers for all the fab machines out there.  Cameo ones are very popular right now =)  You can find out more about these and see all the ones I have made on my Facebook page.
