Goals!

A dear friend of mine has been sending goals every week, and I have been sending mine to her. It's awesome because it's accountability for me, and it motivates me as I think it does her. Here are 3 of my goals: Random order
1. To do at least 6 hours on the Wii Fit this week
2. To keep reading in Revelations
3. To be more productive in my craft room and actually make something

So far I have been reading in Revelations, and I put 1:40 minutes on the Wii Fit! Now I need to kick my own butt and get in my craft room and make something!
I was reading in Revelations, and it's cool because in Rev 1:3 a blessing comes to those who read it, hear it, and keeps it, but it also said the time is near! I'm thinking if it was near then, how much more so is the time near now! Quite exciting!
I did make some cards recently, I will post later, I need to take pictures!
May God bless your day! :-)

Bringing Blog Back To Life Again!

I can't believe it has been so long since I have posted on here. I just added some new gadgets to my blog. I also have many crafts and things I have made, so please check back and see what I do!
So much has been going on in my life. I have been trying to lose weight starting at the beginning of January. I just found out yesterday I have lost 16 pounds! WOOHOO! I'm wearing a smaller size jeans for the first time today! Thank God for the Wii Fit!
About Crafts, lately I have have been getting major into stamping. I just love ink and any kind of stamps! Especially Stampin up!
May God bless your day!

New Cards!

I have made some pretty cards! I learned how to use the cricut design studio! So just wait, I will be making even more things now!
Here is one that I made my Niece for her birthday. I used the CDS (cricut design studio) and the cuttlebug for tinkerbell and some stickles for the glittering letters.
Here is a picture of the card when it is open so you can see the lettering on the edge of the card:


Here is a picture of the card as it is closed:


Here is a Belle Card from a Custom Order: (These are $6 and up) I love Belle and making it a girly pink card, it was fun to make! I used my cricut for two cuts, the Belle and for the background frame (Frame was from Storybook)


Here is a card from a Custom Order: I had fun with this, She wanted a Tea theme, and so I tried to make a table scene. She loves pansies so I hand cut out some stamps of the pansies, and colored them. I hand cut the vase. I used storybook to make the scallop table and the lettering. I used sizzix for the leaf in the vase, and the tag. I thought the lettering should be a tea tag which I stamped from a studio G stamp and attached crochet thread from the tag to the tea cup. The Tea cup was from Beyond Birthdays Cricut Cartridge. I embellished it to match and hand-drew the flowers on the saucer. The doily on the table was a fiskars round punch. The recipient's name was Katie so it just fit perfectly! She loves tea!
Here is the card:

My Latest Creations!!

Hello everyone, hope you are having a great October! Here are my latest card and Christmas tag creations! Thanks for looking!

Here is a card I made for a card swap I'm in. I used a small amount of coral colored cardstock and embossed some flowers on there and highlighted with copper ink. Then I added a flower to match. On the brown paper, I sewed around the edge with coral embroidery thread, and highlighted the edges with copper ink again. I I used a flourish stamp and gold powder and I heat embossed the background. I used my cricut and cut out the Sentiment.



Here below is just a simple sympathy card I made for a dear family. I used the cricut for the sentiment. I inked with olive green the edges and the flourish stamp. I added the paper flower.



Here is a new card idea I thought would hold a friend's gift-card. I used fancy embellished paper, and pearl paper for the background and stamped it with some stamps to decorate and tied it off with a silver ribbon.





Here are some tags I made for a Christmas tag swap:



This tag below opens inside like a card, and I used pearlized paper, it is stunning in person!
