The Pink Cricut

A friend came over today--and coffee led to talking, which led to scrapbooking :).  We made a card, and then she left so I could film the instructions on the card--because it was too cute not to share!

No cutttlebug? No Sizzix Big Shot?  No problem!! In this very quick video- I'll show you a way to emboss for your cards and scrapbooking without a machine!! You still need an embossing folder or plate, but you can purchase those for as cheap as $3.

Our winner today was chosen with random.org.  All she had to do is become a follower, and tell us about it on the Facebook page!  Congratulations Jenn!  Hope you like the Close to my Heart stamps!

I am planning another giveaway in the very near future, so stay tuned :)

Today is another rainy day here--it seems like it will never stop raining.  Last  night I stayed up til 2 am cleaning the kids' bedrooms and doing laundry.  It seems I just can't keep up these days.  :)

Hopefully, with accomplishing so much housework in the wee hours of the morning, I can find some crafting time!! Maybe I will even initiate a challenge for all the crafters out there....

It is another cold, rainy, dreary day here :(.  But, since I took a little shopping trip to Hobby Lobby last night, I had something new to play with.  I picked up a tube of HOT PINK letterpress ink at 40% off- along with some watercolor paper.  I thought maybe watercolor paper would work the same as the pricier Letterpress paper...(no such luck.)

Anyway, I LOVE the pink ink though!  Can't wait to have a "Real" project to work on with my letterpress-instead of just "practicing," with it!! ( The letterpress paper is on the left, and the watercolor paper is on the right.)

Happy Tuesday--It is cold and wet here :(, so I've tried to brighten our day with some scrapping!
Here is the recipe:
