Decorated clip!

So, so simple! Took some scrap paper, glue, and ribbon and that's it! I think its cute for a quick gift idea, maybe as part of a set, maybe a bow on a package, make them kitchen themed for a recipe card holder, etc!

Cocoa Mugs! Yummy!

I made these Cocoa mugs for our local craft mall too! I hope they are good sellers -priced at $2.50 ea. I cut each mug out by hand, ran them through the cuttlebug, some stickles, deco., ribbons and done! Each spoon I dipped in melted chocolated and sprinkled with bits of peppermint! Add a packet of cocoa and there you have it! I love the way they turned out!

Hershey Bar sliders

I've been making these Hershey bar sliders to sell at the local craft mall this holiday season! VERY easy to make and I think they will sell; but what is the right price???

Trick or Treat card


Halloween card I did last night with a stamp my mom had purchased from an ebay seller, trick or treat from a Studio G clear set, nestabilities, paper from an older fall paper stack and a couple of adhesive tabs to finish it off! I love the simple way it came out! Now, what to do with it :)

Goldilocks!


Sleeping at 18 months in my Grandpa's favorite rocking chair! We would been up on vacation and no doubt, I must have been worn out! I could not think of a title for this one, so I had a little help from some wonderful ladies on the cricut messageboard...I hope it makes sense to you!
I used My Community, Lyrical Letters and Calligraphy cartridges, stickles and patterned paper from the Boy's Nursery Stack!

Happy Fall!

Quick card using the Peachy Keen scarecrow stamp (so cute!) Colored and blended with gamsol, inked the edges, layered some papers, added some ribbon and viola! On the inside there is also a small round pumpkin stamp punched, layered and popped!

Splish-Splash!

I remember my mom saying, we were taking a walk and I just sat down in the puddle! Her reaction was to say, Oh, Melissa! LOL, Don't know who exactly snapped the picture, but the caught it at just the right moment!

Stroller Rides!

So, apparently when I was little, I thought it was fun to give our puppy, Missy, stroller rides, LOL! For this layout I used Bazzil Bling and patterned papers from the Boys Nursery Stack. The cut and font are from A Child's Year cartridge and I used a MS Bunny punch along the purple strips (hard to tell in the pics though). I added a few extra buttons and bows to finish it up!

Backyard Beauty!


I think I got my groove back, LOL! This, of course, is me as a toddler in our backyard! I always love pictures of kiddos this age in overalls - so cute! Instead of using the letters I cut out using A Child's Year, I used the background of the glimmer spray paper! Also used a MS punch along the paper, cricut cuts for the flowers, making memories clips and some gemstones for the last added touch. Simple, yet cute :)

Finally created again!


So I've been in quite the crafting slump that past couple of weeks and just never felt like doing a thing! DH and I are trying to find property to build a house, work is crazy busy and trying to clean sweep through our current home and declutter some things! So, to get back in the groove, I sat down tonight and created this layout. Very simple; may still add a few things to the red layout, like a Santa or Christmas tree, not sure yet.
