Tuesday's Helpful Tips:

Several years ago, card making became a craft for me. Although life took me other directions for a while. I'm 3years back in a place I love to create again. Pretty much learned through experimentation and sometimes struggled with some of the basics many die hard crafters have understood for years. 

I remember that "lightbulb" moment when I learned how to get better control  of cutting a clean edge by letting the Stampin' Up! Paper Snips Scissors do the work vs. my very primitive method of chopping away like Edward Scissorhands. 

For better control, pull gently with left hand while cutting with right, gently pulling with left hand while cutting allowing the scissors to do the work for you. Your end result will give you cleaner edges. With a neat result to your project. 

Do you have a tip or different method to improve you cutting skills?

 

Relaxing in the waves!

Our little group of ladies set out to Crystal Beach, TX for a fun filled weekend away.

Relaxing in the waves, sun, and memories to last a lifetime. 

Sometimes the best medicine is quiet time away with friends!

 

Beach Day Vibes Only

My favorite time spent is creating with friends. Each month is a new theme, new creations, and sometimes even new friends. It has been SO busy the last couple of months on everyones schedule.

That getting everyone together has been all most impossible. 😜

This particular class had some of my OG peeps come and create with me. 

And what a laughing sensation we had. 🏖

 Whether your a beginner or seasoned stamping crafter, join us. 

Lets create together.

DSP: 1" X 4" ((banner thats between base and circle))

Ribbon/ Twin: Optional approx. 24''

Basic White Cardstock: 1" X 1" ((scrap pieces for sentiment)) 

Instructions: 

To start using your bonefolder fold all the score lines, make them good and flexible. At the bottom of the 1/4" fold. Snip the corner piece off, and then snip each flap. Then use Tear & Tape or Multipurpose glue to run down side of the flap. To assemble fold box over connecting the flap to the inner side. Creating your box. Flip over and assemble bottom of box. 

To create the banner. Take your 1" X 4" DSP piece, at bottom using your snips, Snip upward about 1/2", Then from bottom corner snip upward to the center snip, repeat on other side. 

Whether you create using Designer Series Paper or Cardstock stamped to create your own look. Either way it's cuteness overload.

DIY 5Below Curtain

I call this the perfect curtain for my craft room decor. I recently went and got my hair done and my hairstylist has a shop out of her home. She's always doing and changing up her studio, this time I was in love with her curtains. How did she do it?!   

Well let me share...If you have a local 5Below store you can purchase in store, I ordered mine and had it in a couple of days. That's right! A $5 rug, took it apart to collect all the bright and colorful strips of material. Then began wrapping them around my current rod. It turned out SO stinking cute. Of course I had a little help from my little Pete kitty. 

Heartfelt Hexagon

I have returned to crafting after a brief absence with sickness, and I am now concentrating on creating project that showcasing the Heartfelt Hexagon stamp and it's matching punch.
