Today’s video is how to make shrinky dinks work with rubber stamping . These cute little charms can be added to your cards or scrapbook pages.

I found shrink film at AcMoore and thought why not. Lot’s of fun.

Enjoy today’s video and stay tuned for a card made with one of these cute charms.


Also remember to watch in high quality, it really makes a difference

Video-Sizzix Birds in Bloom


I’ve been having such trouble with video the past few days. Tried HD sent it back, tried another HD, returned that. Last night my husband said, “why don’t you try the regular camcorder” and it worked great. Check out my latest video. Make sure to click on watch in high quality it is so much better. Like I said I got the video to look good, but now the volume isn’t loud enough. Need a new Microphone.
This card would be great as a wedding, birthday, or a shower card.

I used the Birds in Bloom Sizzix die, whisper white cardstock. blush blossom cardstock, designer paper from the sale-a-bration catalog, whisper white organza ribbon and the scallop edge punch.

Oh Boy!


Well yesterday I posted about how I love my new Flip Mino HD. Guess What? it’s going back. My first video which is on You Tube but not on my blog. I hate the quality. I always include at the beginning of my videos a picture of my finished project and you can see how nice and red the color of the pattern paper is. Once the video starts the color are faded. I worked all night last night trying to make the Flip work and the colors are just too washed out. I tried.

It might be a few days until I post another video. I have another camcorder in mind and will see if I can get it locally. If so another video should be up before the end of the weekend. If I have to order online it might be a little while.

Well anyway here is today’s project and as always you can order 24/7 on my website. (Posted on the left hand side). If you are interested in becoming a Demonstrator please feel free to contact me. I may have a little surprise for you if you do.

Ribbon Storage

I had a few people ask me how I store my ribbon on the clothes pins. I can’t take credit for this idea, I found it on another website and thought it was genius. I did this a few months back and just keep up with them as I buy new ribbons.

Here’s a video on how to store your ribbon. Enjoy.
