Stay Tuned!

Sorry that it's been such a long time since I've updated my blog. I just wanted to stop in and say "hi" and let you know that I will post more updates, product reviews and craft projects soon!

Purple Lady and some coffee filter flowers

I have been working on some coffee filter flowers that turned out pretty cool. I am sorry that the quality of these are so bad, I took them with my cell phone camera. I will definitely get some better photos with my Cannon. They were so much fun to make and I used a little acrylic paint, mod podge, glimmer mists and added to a small amount of water. Soaked them and formed them into shape. They are stiff and hold their shape nicely. They will be great for some upcoming projects and cost next to nothing to make.
I finished this tag a few months ago but haven't published until now. The tag is about 4 inches while by 7.5 inches tall. I used seam binding for the tie at the top and made a homemade charm.


Merry Christmas




I would like to wish you and yours a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays. I hope everyone has been spending time doing what they enjoy and getting those last minute craft projects done as well. I have a lot do yet but have completed a couple of small projects. These two are faux snowman hats, both primitive or country in style. Both were painted black and the tall one was composed of an old oatmeal can and the other used a coffee can as part of the hat. I added some embellishments and wah-lah. The tall hat is more primitive than the shorter hat and has more country-inspired Christmas items. I hope you like them.

My BZZAgent review for COVERGIRL

Hey Readers!
I wanted to share a review of a recent BzzAgent campaign I participated in with COVERGIRL. I was amazed at the positive changes I have had in my skin since I started using the COVERGIRL Olay products. Most of the time when I would use foundation I could see my fine wrinkles and the foundation would expose every line and crevice on my face. With this foundation as well as the powder, the makeup covered up every blemish but left a natural look behind. There was no powder texture residue left behind and my skin felt renewed and rejuvenated. I recommend everyone to switch over to this product and try it for yourself!

Here is a Birthday card I made for my daughter. Sorry about the crinkled edges--I took the photos after she opened the card. Just wanted to share.

Happy Father's Day readers! I hope you are enjoying your day and celebrating with the special dad in your life. I wanted to share a couple of cards I recently completed. The first one is this Father's Day card with a western theme. The front says Happy Father's Day and includes a western printable on a denim paper background that is torn and distressed. I also added a few embellishments including a metal brad and burlap. The back is very simple--I used online printable ephemera and distressed it with ink and then sealed with modge podge. I hope you got a chance to get creative today and make something special for someone.
