Recycle and reuse




I've discovered that many of my other crafty friends are much like me in saving things because you never know when you might use it which leads to hoarding things. I think my hubby tolerates it because on more than one occassion I've bailed him out last minute on a needed birthday gift for a co-worker. I've had these journals for a year that I knew I wanted to do something with, but I wasn't sure how or what because they had this 3-d chipboard thing on them. Well, I discovered that if I was careful the chipboard design came off completely and evenly not damaging the journal at all. Now of course I couldn't just throw these cute chipboards away, right? So, I made these cards out of them. The tag is a flower with a circle in the center and it says "I love your style" which is from a SU! set now long retired. I think it's a cute care for a girlfriend just to say "I'm thinking of you" or something. What do you think?

Crafty Goodiness




I wanted to post these cute notebooks I made for a craft fair, but never got around to it. I had a few left that I took some pics of to share. I think the honey do's ones are so cute.

Christmas Card


This was another card I made while back. I really like the way it came out. It's a 5 x 5 gatefold card, all are Amuse stamps, the white bow in the middle is holding it tied together.

Thinking of You Card


I made this card for a contest awhile back and since it looks like I didn't win : ( I figured I should post it. Most of my cards have at least one stamped image, so this was slightly different since it has no stamping. Most of the die cuts are Quikutz, except for the flower which is Stampin' Up.
