~♥A Very Merry & Yummy Saturday To You♥~

*Don't forget tomorrow is the Scrap N' Tote WINNER and

Monday is the Imaginisce Blog with GIVEAWAY*

♥Good morning my amazingly delicious crafty friends♥

This week my friend Jan was making cupcake ornaments

and I had never felt the need to make them before...but she got me

curious about them. So I decided to start checking out sites and

I loved what I saw. BUT I wanted to tweek them and make

them my own instead of just following directions.

This is what I came up with.

They still look handmade, they are light and pretty,

but they are not as messy and some recipes I found, and not

as simple as others...I sort of made a happy medium.

Now hubby is not to happy with the incredible amount of PINK

glitter all over my house right now LOL

But I do love the results! :)

What do you think?? Is a video tutorial in order?

I am not really sure yet...I want to know what you all think.

If you all want one I will make it...but if you think

the cupcake idea is overdone I will just pass it and move on LOL

I do have a video coming up Wednesday with hand made garland

and a Christmas Card holder, also a new video for another Christmas

ornament, my annual one.

As I type I think I might have to do another one for these too LOL

Well it is cold and I have to finish prepping for tonight's party.

I made the fudge last night and so much food this week.

~Happy Saturday everyone~

~Once again THANK YOU for popping by~

~Hello Cricut Crazy Monday + New Video for the i-rock!~

I was just going to post a video today.

I made a video yesterday of little tips for the i-rock

that I have picked up along the way.

But then last night my boys came into my craft

room and they discovered mommy's toy...LOL

the CRICUT! hahaha

It was so funny!!!!

So I thought first today I would share what they asked me

to make them and what happened.

This is the Hello Kitty card I made yesterday.

I did not share the information yesterday because

I was throwing a SURPRISE Hello kitty party for a gf.

It was great and the Hello Kitty cartridge was awesome for it!

Ok on to the boys...

So Justice comes in and he says "Momma when are you going

to make me something to go into my binder to make it special?"

I said "Right now, what do you want?"

"I want you to use your Cricut and make this Robot mom!"

hehehe, this is what he chose.

I know it is a basic Cricut cut but he was TICKLED!

I made it 8.5" so it covered the whole binder area.

They are only allowed white binders so this is so cool for him.

Not to be outdone my other son came in and said

"MOM what about me???" I said "Whatcha want hunny?"

"A BIG Beautiful BUTTERFLY Mom"

And that is what I made him LOL

I used my Core'dinations cardstock, my Helmar 450 quick dry,

and my Cricut Expression machine. The Give a Hoot cartridge

and the Robotz Cartridge for the Robot.

We had so much fun. What a great way to get the kids involved

in being creative, they were in awe of the machine!

Ok on to the video.

It's been a while since I made one and

I have 4 ready to go, I just need to finish them!

This one is for anyone who wants small quick tips for the

using the i-rock and the gems.

OKy doky that is it for me today!

I am off to craft, I have a special guest design spot

coming up!

~Happy Monday y'all~

~Thank you for stopping by, I do appreciate ya!~

~Witchy Wednesday Babay *Video & Rak*~

Morning to all, I am a day early in my reveal with these,

but I simply could not wait a second longer!
I wanted to show that you could make these
in fall colors and patterned paper,
and they would make a fun decoration too!
I think the word FALL would be fun as well
and even stringing them on some tulle as a banner!
I used the OCTOBER KIT from Treasured on these,
and Leslie is the best at coordinating the papers to
make any project fun. I have like 7 sheets of paper left
and so far I have made 2 cards,
3 Layouts,
and these 3 witch hats! I am sure I will get at least
3 more Layouts and 4 more cards.

So, am I a dork or what? I think I am obsessed with witch hats LOL
Off to my wet and witchy Wednesday.

Ohhh OHHH wait one second!
I have one more announcement!
PURPLE COWS contacted me yesterday...
guess what?
They are gearing up to host a HUGE contest!!!!!!
I hear the Prize will be HUGE!
and they are being so secretive that I am getting a packet in the mail about it!
I promise to share as soon as I know!
And to celebrate their BIG CONTEST,

I made this quick video...
you can tell I am tired because my mind was very jumbled this morning LOL


and am sharing this RAK
If you watch the video you will know why I am giving away some rub-ons
And it all ties into Purple Cows!
So if you are not a follower become one, and leave a comment.
If you are a follower, bless you I love ya! Leave me a comment.
You keep me making these silly videos and having fun with crafting!
When I began crafting I was with a group of ladies who never shared
how to or anything, they were so mean!
As a result, I LOVE to share projects and ideas! I mean why not
be crafty, creative AND help others to enjoy the same art?

OK off to make a sympathy card and finish a Purple Cows Dt Project!
Have a great day fellow crafters!
~Thank YOU for popping by~
