This is an idea I found in a local scrapbooking store and thought "I can finally use this!" Honestly, I miss birthdays more often than I like, but I'm really trying to make it better in 2011! <br />
<br />
I used a heart shape that I cut out using the cricut, inverted it and then cut off the pointy end...see? To make the bloomers (what am I? from the 1920's??) I traced the heart onto the paper, then went back and trimmed them to fit. I attached the lace using the ATG gun. The bloomers, or underwear, or whatever are paper from the Paper Studio (Hobby Lobby) and the lace I picked up a long time ago from a thrift store. The letters, of course, are from the cricut (Lyrical letters...it's the only letter cartridge I have!!). So...voila! Not too hard to make and I think it will get a good laugh :) Happy Crafting!Heatherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08389448805392713022noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7034089438853799763.post-37946127604822313742011-02-04T06:06:00.000-08:002011-02-04T06:06:41.019-08:00Valentine's Day Toilet Paper Mini<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/byVvd6BHwqc" title="YouTube video player" width="480"></iframe><br />

This was my first attempt at a TP mini album. I tried to try new things with this challenge...which was a little challenging, but that was the point! I liked how this turned out overall, but I really had a tough time with the "creative juices"! I guess I was just really tired!Heatherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08389448805392713022noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7034089438853799763.post-79695013769080207332011-02-04T05:58:00.000-08:002011-02-04T05:58:18.577-08:00Challenge complete! Phewww....It's been a while! I managed to get Marion Smith's 31 day - 31 goal challenge done! It wasn't easy, but I did have fun trying to keep up! Some of the gals were on the ball and posted every single day...that wasn't me though. I had a few days where I had to post several videos because of this or that going on. You know how life goes. I'm gonna post a few videos that I did, so you can see what I've been up to! Happy Crafting!!Heatherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08389448805392713022noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7034089438853799763.post-66809819130736928222011-01-28T06:28:00.000-08:002011-01-28T06:28:23.997-08:00My Funny Valentine<div style="text-align: left;">So, while I've been scrapbooking for awhile, I have yet to do a lot of "altered things". This year, I'm really going to try out a few different altered things and see what I like! The journal was so much fun, so I'm definitely going to be doing another, bigger one soon. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">I picked up one of the $1 frames for Valentines Day at Michael's and tried my hand at jazzing up a frame! Instead of red as the overall color, I chose shades of pink (of course!) and just had some fun. </div><br />

I try not to stress myself out too much over stuff like that, but it seems I can't do any project without griping a little about this or that. That's another goal of mine: don't sweat over the small stuff! I love this hobby, but it should be FUN, right? So, have fun and enjoy!! </div>Heatherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08389448805392713022noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7034089438853799763.post-90110739222394702652011-01-09T18:40:00.000-08:002011-01-09T18:41:38.152-08:00My first altered journal!Still keeping up (barely) with the 31 day / 31 goal challenge! So, I finally did an "altered journal". That said, it's the tiniest one I could find. Start small, I always say! I think it turned out alright...just some finishing touches and I think I'll be satisfied. I don't want it to be too "fussy" since I want to actually keep this one in my purse. Let me know what you think. Have YOU done an altered journal? Enjoy!<br />

Tucked away in a random aisle in the scrapbooking department, a small selection of cricut cartridges....for $9.99!! I was beside myself. Stunned! There was the "paisley", "old west", "sweet treats", "pooh and friends" and a couple alphabet ones. I picked up "lyrical letters"....but I may have to go back! If you have a store near you, run down there NOW!!!Heatherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08389448805392713022noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7034089438853799763.post-8218030226169115582011-01-04T11:37:00.000-08:002011-01-04T11:37:32.484-08:00The Challenge....dun, dun, DUNNNN!!!So, I've decided to join Marion Smith and some fellow youtube friends in a 31-day/31-goal challenge. The idea is that we make a small video every day and accomplish a goal. It could be crafty related or anything that we really need/want to get done. So, far...I'm keeping up okay! Here's the first video. If you want to join the challenge, go to youtube and go to Marion's (apieceofcraftdotcom) youtube page. I'll check in every so often and post the videos here during the challenge, as well as post some other stuff I'm working on. <br />

I succeeded for the most part and here is what I came up with:<br />
<br />
<span id="goog_1138183110"></span><span id="goog_1138183111"></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_SNX1eoXa52c/TMXnscCd8rI/AAAAAAAAABE/q-AQAc8EOhQ/s1600/IMG_0172.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_SNX1eoXa52c/TMXnscCd8rI/AAAAAAAAABE/q-AQAc8EOhQ/s320/IMG_0172.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">A very simple card using black and green cardstock. I got the stickers at WalMart and used some spider confetti I had and along with some ribbon I found at ACMoore. I made an envelope out of orange cardstock using the Martha Stewart score board (a very useful tool!!).</div><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_SNX1eoXa52c/TMXGvWWRdII/AAAAAAAAAAk/5grhpnOzAXo/s1600/IMG_0173.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_SNX1eoXa52c/TMXGvWWRdII/AAAAAAAAAAk/5grhpnOzAXo/s320/IMG_0173.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I made this little saying up.

Then, I free hand cut a hat out of black cardstock and some craps of silver paper I had. I followed the shape of the witches hat from the WalMart witch stickers I found (above).</div><br />

I'm not as creative when it comes to spooky and scary minis. My career is in forensics and I was having issues with this? I guess it's just a different when it's not work. LOL Hope you enjoy!<br />

Here's a tip: Michael's accepts competitors coupons. Being the largest craft store, their selection and prices are often far superior, so you can find items and get a great deal! Happy shopping!<br />

I found a whole bunch of scraps from a Christmas crop I did last year and decided to put them to good use!

It took me about an hour to put him together including the sewing. I chose parts from a few patterns and changed him a bit, but the result is one creepy looking little dude! Fun! <br />
<br />
I went on a shopping spree of sorts over the last few days and I picked up the paper that I'm using in the background for this picture. It's from the <a href="http://www.twopeasinabucket.com/shop/martha-stewart/98542-vampire-12x12-paper-pad/?source=NL20100803">Martha Stewart holiday paper collection in 'vampire'</a>. I might post a haul video on youtube so you'll be able to see all the goodies. This paper collection is probably my favorite find though! <a href="http://www.twopeasinabucket.com/shop/martha-stewart/98542-vampire-12x12-paper-pad/?source=NL20100803">Two Peas in a Bucket.com had it here</a>...but, Michaels had it on sale too, so if you're near one be sure to check them out. So many good sales going on right now...hard to resist!Heatherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08389448805392713022noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7034089438853799763.post-16492997610652452632010-09-26T13:54:00.000-07:002010-09-26T13:54:47.661-07:00Oooohhhh.....ZOMBIES!Zombies seem to be popular right now, for reasons I really don't fully understand. Movies like <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0365748/">Shawn of the Dead</a> and <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1156398/">Zombieland</a> are entertaining for sure (I can't lie, both those movies are hilarious--see 'em!), but I'm not running out to get a t-shirt or anything. That said, I found some zombies that I'm totally excited about: Zombie Felties!<br />

I'm thinking of trying to make the pirate zombie first...maybe the classic zombie. I'll post again when I get one done! The directions are simple and, and I really love this: you don't need to blow up any of the templates for the zombie parts. So, you can trace right from the book if you want. The beads are probably the most expensive and hardest parts to find, which are relatively easy to find and not really expensive. My husband wants me to make some of these and put santa hats on them for Christmas ornaments....yikes. We'll see!<br />

</div>I tried my hand with unmounted stamps and bought some from <a href="http://www.oxfordimpressions.com/">Oxford Impressions</a>. They have *amazing* high quality red rubber stamps. If you like stamping, you really should stop by. Here's a picture of their "Steampunk Works" collection:<br />

I bought the "Classic Alice" set of stamps and had a lot of fun playing with them yesterday. It's so economical and easy to do stamping this way! Mounting the stamps to EZ mount foam is ridiculously simple (step #1: peel, step #2: stick!) and then they're ready for use with any acrylic block. You can watch the youtube video for details:<br />

The holidays are coming up, so I'm eager to get some crafting projects done!<br />
<br />
I'm going to be making Christmas cards this year and I have two baby blankets to knit: one by December and the other by January. When I get those done, I'll post some pictures. I'm making the 'Big Bad Baby Blanket' out of <a href="http://www.knithappens.com/content/view/13/1/">Stitch and Bitch</a>...which is a relatively easy one to do. If you're new to knitting (or looking for a reference), this book is awesome! Do yourself a favor and get it!Heatherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08389448805392713022noreply@blogger.com0
