WOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOO!!!

I am SOOOO excited to announce that I have made the May Arts Ribbon DT!! 

THANK YOU SO MUCH for all of your support! I cannot wait to inspire you with more ribbon-centric creations!!! 

A HUGE thank you to May Arts for the opportunity to create with these uber inspiring ladies!

Xyron DT call, MCT challenge and Shop Pumpkin Spice challenge

Don't forget about the Xyron DT call HERE! You do not have to make new projects for it, so it doesn't take very long to throw your name in the hat! When I applied, I waffled thinking I was not good enough to apply until the last day and I thought, "what the heck - I'll just give it a try". I could not believe I made it! So, you never know. Go for it! (I reapplied!!!) 

Also, there is a challenge still going on over at My Creative Time HERE (summer themed). 

And one at Shop Pumpkin Spice (beach themed) HERE!

Wish me luck! May Arts Ribbon announces their DT today! I am on pins and needles!

Emmaline's 1st Birthday Invitation

Emmaline's party will be vintage bunny themed so I wanted to do something that matched the theme. I ended up sending an evite (shhh!!! I just got low on time) but I wanted to make at least one for her baby book.

Check out the other projects over at My Creative Time! The theme is summer and as she is having a summer birthday, I thought this would be perfect! :)

Shop Pumpkin Spice - feel better Grampy

My grandfather has been in the hospital for a few weeks and just made it into rehab and yesterday got to come home! He is doing very well! I wanted to make a card for him which will be going off in the mail today - sometimes it's nice when you feel like people are still thinking about you after you get home. :) 

I wanted to use Christmas papers for a non-Christmas card and I still LOVE this My Mind's Eye 6x6 Pad: Winter Wonderland. They had me at polka dots, tiny snowmen, and enchanting houses.

Okay, so this was my first time busting out the Magnet Cartridge from Xyron for my 5" Creative Station. I LOVED IT!!!! Sorry the pics are bad - night project! 

So, here's the deal-e-o. It laminates one side at the same time that it magnetizes (is that a verb?!?) the other. I want to magnetize everything!!! 

I made this little calendar with the 4x6 die from My Creative Time and then sent it through my little machine. Perfect laminating and now it is happily sitting on my fridge. I wish the pics were better, but people have been asking me to make them as gifts! They're really quite darling!

Since I have a stainless steel fridge, it can only go on the side so this size was perfect for me!

Here is a better close-up of the calendar. See the hexy background stamp!?! It's on the clouds!
