I have been taking a bunch of different classes at some of the many art studios in my area. Having a blast with all of them! And I love that I'm learning new things, and can't wait to do more! I'm sharing with you my resin art wall that I have started. I made 2 of them at the art studio, and 3 of them were done at a friends house with all the kids! I added some vinyl to the wall, after a failed attempt at painting with stencils. The paint bled right thru the contact paper, so I started over! I have a few images from Chalk Couture that I may throw on the wall as well that are beach themed, but haven't decided yet. I hope you love it as much as i do! 

The seahorse and flamingo were made at the art class. I did the mermaid, my 13 year old did the one with the octopus and starfishes, and my 11 year old did the sharks. Its a very high wall, so I'm thinking of adding a few more!

Miss Kate Cuttables Guest Designer

Hi Everyone! 

Today I get to be a guest designer for Miss Kate Cuttables! Just love her files! 

I created a fun Valentine's Day card using the "cute valentine hippo" file.




I used a black card base I had on hand, and every single piece of cardstock was from my scrap stash. I love polka dots and stripes together, and thought these worked great together! Added some bling to the corners of the hippo as well. Inside, I added a white background to make writing on easier, and I stamped my sentiment using Jaded Blossoms "Valentine Luggage Tag"

Thanks for taking a peek and Happy Valentines Day!

For my card, I used a lot of scrap papers....I cut the SN W and my tag and christmas tree out with my Silhouette. I added Ranger liquid pearls to the tree, and Tim Holtz clear rock candy to the bottom of the card (looks like snow! its so cool in person). I wrote out LET IT since I didn't want to waste a big piece of paper printing lol

In his wonderful reindeer sleigh,
Santa would whisk us all away;
Flying merrily,

Non stop to the NORTH POLE!!


I created this fun card using a digital image from Craftin Desert Divas called Grumpy Christmas. Of course I had to add some sparkle to both of them so I used some stickles for that. Al the card stock is from my stash, and I used Artify markers to color everything in. The stamp and tag its on is from Jaded Blossom. Then I inked it with some CTMH color.  


Next head on over to Santa's workshop to visit with Kim

Connie Can Crop Monthly Challenge ~ 65

This is Connie's last challenge for 2017!!! EEK! This year totally blew by me! Lets kick off the month with something fancy. 


You must create either a 3D project or a card with a fancy fold. 

I went with the 3D project this month! I found a great exploding ornament box in the Silhouette store to use. The pattern paper is all Echo Park "Holly Jolly Christmas" and the solid paper is ll from DCWV Mariposa stack. Lots of glue, lots of pop dots and some burnt fingertips from the hot glue for the ribbon! But, I absolutely love this set!

Thanks for stopping by!

Miss Kate Cuttables Guest Designer

Hey everyone! 
I had the great pleasure of guest designing for Miss Kate Cuttables again! I created this great little holiday decor using their Reindeer Names file. 


I had some wood boards I bought from Michaels a while back on clearance. Painted it all white and then used vinyl for the design. I just have to put a little hook on the back side and it will be ready to hang up! 

Hope you enjoyed my project!
