Mod Podge

I made a frame and a door hanger for one of my sorority sisters using paper, tissue paper, and mod podge. I have never used mod podge and it was one of the easiest things to use. I usually always paint my wood, but since I always saw my sister using mod podge on paper, I figured that it would work on wood.

Calling Card

I had such a fun weekend at my 2nd circle swarm here in Houston. Michael Wigton came and talked to a group of 50 ladies about the circle and provo craft. I learned so much and enjoyed crafting that day and collecting so many creative calling cards.  I can’t wait to go to the Cricut Swarm in Dallas!

30 minute challenge

Robyn from my pink stamper asked us to make something in under 30 minutes using the colors pink, purple, and green. I worked on my challenge while she worked on hers during her live u-stream. I finished right on time and I was excited to use my Happy Hauntings cartridge because I had just gotten it in the mail Friday morning. I am barely posting my card because I had a very busy week and weekend.

Hello Friend

Today I had some time and I decided to make some cards for some friends in my class. We have something like Secret Santa in there, and whenever we want, we leave a note, candy or whatever we wish in our person’s bucket just to make them feel good, etc…
Well some of my friends have never gotten anything so I told them that I would make them something since they always see me giving my person things.
I got the idea for my cards from Create with Expression
She did such a beautiful zebra card and I had to make one just like hers and I did the other 3 around the same design as hers.
I also did a birthday card for my boss' son.
