I finally updated my Pen Tool page with a button for the Silhouette Cameo™...no more having to email me! This Pen Tool will work in the Silhouette Cameo™, Silhouette SD™, Craft Robo™ and the Wishblade™. The HotPaws© Pen Tool is molded by me out of a lightweight plastic instead of a heavier aluminium. The Silhouette™ machines are a very detail oriented machine and the heavier the tool you put

 Did you know that a rubber stamp can be used in Polymer clay work? Well I did not until I made my first polymer clay creation. I was playing with some white polymer clay and decided to make a pumpkin, the the light bulb went on in my head and I found one of my retired Stampin' Up Halloween sets. The new set on pg. 26 of the SU catalog has a great new face that will work great for a this #122622

This cute little leaning house was created using my Pazzles Pro  machine. It was spray painted with orange & black spray paint with glitter sprinkled all over it. On the roof I glued a bunch of buttons like a gingerbread house would have. The "spider web" was created using  Beacon Advanced Craft Glue. I would slowly drizzle out the glue and pull on it to make a "string" across the front of the

Ok Lets get in the Halloween Spirit..Shall we!! Here is a Haunted House I did last year. Stampin' Up came up with this great house but did not release it time for my upline's meeting. So I just designed one myself with my Pazzles Pro in chipboard, almost identical to theirs so I could demonstrate the house to customers. For the shingles I did use the Sizzix Bigz Die #120893, with the Scallop

I have been using cutting machines for many years now. I now have quite a few of these electronic monsters...yes I am addicted. Certain machines will cut certain files differently, some with better accuracy than others. Software has to do with this also because software is what is giving the machine the commands to cut. I started with a version from Signmax and have used Funtime/

 Ok well I am back after 2 years of not posting. I have been crafting in many other areas as well as papercrafting, for example polymer clay, knitting, crocheting, digital arts. 2 years ago Stampin' Up made us sign this agreement not to promote/advertise other "Papercrafting" companies within our blogs. I do understand but.... I was not happy about this and neither were quite a few other

I have always learned things better by seeing it done, not by reading about it. Someone asked a question on one of the Yahoo groups the other day about the Funtime/Pazzles Software and changing the layer order for cutting. I bit the bullet and downloaded Camtasia 30 day free trial. Great program! A bit pricey for some but I will be buying it! I made my first video last night to show a simple way

Another "Cake Box" But this one is one of my favorite retired Stampin Up papers of last year. One thing about dark papers when you use a "kiss cut" fold line your paper will show through it's core color. I am not too keen on that but.....

Here is a photo of my most recent project that I did for myself. Using Stampin' Up's newest Specialty Paper Bride. You can get templates all over the internet for a "Cake Box" so I am not posting one here. I did create a WPC file for my Pazzles to cut the multiple "Cake Boxes" that fit into an octagon.The rhinestones are heat set using a heat setting tool. The ribbon (5/8 Whisper White Organza)

Well the new Stampin'Up digital software is finally out. It's called My Digital Studio®. If you have never used a digital scrapbooking program before, this will be a good beginning program for you. With a little help from the manual you will be producing your own printable scrapbook pieces in a matter of minutes with the included templates. Or put them together, upload and have a real book made

Here are 3 of my swaps for convention. The little gift bag is a 2-5-7-10 gift bag made on my Scor-Pal. The Haunted Step card has 3 steps and a tall one on the side (I used my Pazzles Inspiration to cut these out). The snowflake card is a Sizzix Bigz Die creation. All stamps and colors are Stampin' Up.

Well time does fly when your busy. The last six months has been a bit of a rollarcoaster for me. January was my birthday month and my sweet adopted Husky Doe became very sick. So at the beginning of February I had to say goodbye to her... She was about 14 years old. Then in March I received the news that my adopted poodle furbaby Muffin had kidney disease. So I started giving her an injection of

Last night my friend Deb and I made all her gift bags for her work people. Since she has such a stash of paper we used a lot of her papers adding my Stampin' Up Real Red to compliment the bags. In her bags were a coffee mug with some hot chocolate tins so the outside cello bag was filled with Ghirardelli Chocolate Chips and mini marshmallows and teeny tiny little peppermint pillows.

More of my glue gun magic! These large plastic ornaments were purchased from Michaels. A few craft picks and ribbon and glue! Viola!! Beautiful..... Originally I had bought a decorated ornament for $26.00 at the local holiday craft show (Sugar Plum Festival). Using that as my inspiration, I created these ornaments of my own for 1/4 of the price!You can see my reflection in one of them as I

I just fell in love with this little elephant when I saw him! I went to a Copic Marker make and take the other day. The stamp company is Our Craft Lounge. Personally I was not thrilled with the Copic Markers for the price that they command. I did purchase 2 sets; pastels and brights. I got better results with Prismacolor Pencils and Gamsol blending spirits. (Elephant colored with Prismacolors)

The beige and red baskets that are standing up in the back left are fold up for easier set up and take down storage.

This is a unique card...called a Secret Message card. You open it one way and figure out how to open it the other way and you have a whole different card. This was one of the many cards on the Pazzles Greeting Cards CD that we used for our Sep. Design Team projects. If I were to make another one I would use one less cut/fold, See the prple alternating with the black...there would only be 3

This was my Pazzles Design Team project for August. We were supposed to design something about "Guys". I used the "kiss cut" quite a bit for the detail in the truck. I took a generic picture off the web and hand vectorized the image. The windows are made out of vellum. The grill and rims were silver metalic paper. I used a Stampin'Up tire tread wheel on the tires. All the growth under the

This one was using the Swirls and Twirls CD that is available from Pazzles. We also had to make a matching little project to go along with the scrap page.

Take your White Signo Pen and mark corner marks to line up the place to put your fold line. If your eyes have a hard time seeing the edges this will help speed things up and straighten out the cuts.

Using the Sizzix again.....This a cute banner I made to match my all Sizzix Fall Scrapbook page. This time using the exclusive "Shelli" Bigz XL Pennant die. The letters are just as glittery as the Scrapbook page. I used Pumpkin Pie, Chocolate Chip and Autumn Vine DSP. Tied it up with Pumpkin Pie and Chocolate Chip grosgrain ribbon. In between are the large SU brads to hold it all together. The

Whooo Hoooo I figured out how to do my own .GIF Blinky today! Also how to add it to my sidebar linking it to my Stampin' Up site. not as easy as I would have liked it to be. I am not savvy in HTML but muddled my way through. Making the Blinky was easy...It was the rest that took time. Even adding it to this post was a bit complicated.

Fall is definitely here! So Cal is getting their hot spells with termites flying! Leaves are changing everywhere. And the best part is the kids are back in school!! Now I don't have any human kids but my neighbors do.....Parking is ugly in the summer with the teenagers who also speed into their prospective parking spots and the younger ones are well...just plain loud. Don't get me wrong, these

Aren't these great! Using the shiniest gold and silver cardstock I could find, I used the new SU 20 year Sizzix embosslet to make these cute little diecut stickers. After running them through the Xyron 250, I put them on all my catalogs I handed out. Next I took the scallop punch and punched out 3 chipboard "backs" and glued these on to one of the silver die cuts. I inked the edges with a silver

Don't you just love the name Audrey for a little girl! Here is the second Baby Book that my friend wanted to do with my "help". I think this one turned out much cuter then the first one. I guess I am much fonder of the SU Cherry DSP then Deb's original pick of papers for the first Baby Book. This time my "help" was much less, The choice of papers and matching goodies were much easier to match and

Isn't this just the cutest! It seems to be a very popular item for Candy Jars, Candle Holders, Windows & Walls! I put mine on a candle holder I purchased at Big Lot's a few months ago. The candy corn candles inside of the holder are from lluminations.... on sale 25% off right now too!! Much better than putting real candy corn in with a candle...

Monday morning left at 6:30am and landed in Filmore, Utah, another 6 hours lots of up hill too.....Ok today left Filmore to Salt Lake City, Only 3 hours this time.

This card was inspired by Dawn and her great video, If you have not checked out her site it really is fun. I love the Polka Dot Background Stamp ( yeah not retired!!), Other stamps: Everything Baby and Fun & Fast Notes. Inks: Pretty in Pink, Regal Rose, Black, Baja Breeze. Paper: Whisper White, Pink Pirouette, Regal Rose. 1/4 in hole punch, 1 in hole punch, Any Scallop punch will work. Ribbon:

Shrinky Dinks were such a fun part of my life growing up...Have I really grown up??? That's debatable. Well now I am really having fun with them. This is Swap #5 for Convention 08. Notice how big they are to begin with....Then how small they are after!! I stamped with Ruby Red and Certainly Celery Classic Ink. Then aquapainted in with Cameo Coral. For stamping I made myself an acetate mask for

This is a vinyl cut out that I layered on a window cling. This was done for the 4th of July but have not had time to post it. This will be a Free File when I get back from convention. I love cutting Vinyl. It has some many uses.

This is a design I did for the Pazzles Design Team. Whoo Hoo they liked it. So it will be coming out on one of their new CD's sometime in the future. So I thought I would give you a preview. Aren't they cute! They are little baby bib cards. Wouldn't these be adorable for a baby shower or baby announcement. I had to use those little tiny button brads and the teeny tiny white brads to finish it off

Here we go Swap share #3 and counting!! This card was fun but quite a bit of piecing together with the old 2 way glue. The original idea came from Sue Duffy a few weeks back. This new Bella Rose paper really lends itself quite nicely to a quilt design like this. The triangles are a 1 3/8 Sq. Punch cut diagonal. The circles are the 1 1/4 and 1 inch punches. The red background is 4 1/8 x 4 1/8.

This is my helper: Muffin! She is helping me aqua-paint some tile magnets I am making to swap. She really wanted in my lap....so there she is. I had the camara on the newly cleaned area and just used the remote to snap the picture. This is the cleanest this table has been in 2 weeks. What a mess making a bunch of swaps!

This elegant & simple card was originally done for a Demo meeting that was lacking in attendence so I made a few more and now it will be a Convention 08 swap. I stamped in Craft White and Craft Black and embossed with clear powder. The center is the stamp from the Kind Thoughts set BUT.......I used.....Shrinky Dinks . The inkjet kind. After we did our little swap, I was packing up my stuff and

This great Card holder was inspired by Patty of http://www.pattystamps.com/ . I changed it just a little bit. I personally do not like the BIA/ Bind It All for me, I have used comb and spiral binding for years. Spiral binding offers such fun colors (Yeah Yeah I used white for this one...Boring) from Pinks to Browns.......lots of colors. I also bind my catalogs with it too. Back to this great card

These glasses were created using my Pazzles cutting machine. I cut out a Vinyl reverse stencil and used Armour Etch to etch the glass. Since this was a project for Pazzles I decided to use their Logo on the glasses. I purchased the glasses at Big Lots so they are sturdier and not so delicate. They came out great! Good Idea for Christmas gifts. I started practicing with any jar I could find...

At the Stampmania V I was lucky enough to introduce 5 more people to the wonderful Scor-Pal. I had purchased 15 of them from Diana Crick with the intention of introducing this great tool to as many people as I could. Now I was not selling them at a profit, I did not make any money...I simply want people to have this handy tool!! Then I tell them to call Stampin' Up and ask them to carry this

These were the goodies in the Door Prize for Stampmania V. 4 3 x 3 mini cards and a pocket notebook and pen with a magnetic clasp. I hate Velcro on paper products. The magnets work so much better and you can hide them too! If anybody wants to try magnets go to www.amazingmagnets.com . I think they are a better deal than the Basic Grey pack.

Ok This time I put a body with the Bikini and added a Hula Skirt with the word punch and Raffia. This was my swap for the Stampmania V in Long Beach 2 week ago. I cut out the body with my Pazzles (easy to mass produce) And this time added the sunglasses that come with the set "Life's a Breeze" as the background on the Brilliant Blue. The other picture is all the parts before they went together

How about a pair of flip flops? Aren't they cute with the Summer Picnic DSP from Stampin'Up. I love the cherry paper the best. I stamped the inside with the Life's a Breeze set. Just love those dark glasses. Especially when you use Crystal Effects/Lacquer on them. The pattern for these actually came from a flip flop of mine that was under my desk.

Here is an adorable card I made for a Stampin' Up meeting when Kathy Thorn came out from Utah again to see her downline...us! I used the Scallop punch for the Bikini top with Summer Picnic DS Paper. I used my Scor-Pal to put a perfect score between 5 scallops. Then I used a hole punch on the fold over to make it "lacy". The straps are from the Word Window punch. Topping it off with a red Gingham

And here is the PDF file of her informative tutorial. Now I will add a little bit extra of how to get that image in WMF/Windows Meta file into your Pazzles software.

Take a look at the new bubbleshare on the right sidebar to see what I have been up to since I have not been crafting up a storm.

Daughtry opened for Bon Jovi tonight. Here he came out to sing with Bon Jovi...Not a bad looking trio of men.... Although I prefer hair on the head. Speaking of hair....The blond keyboard player is David Bryan....he looked & sounded pretty good too! Isn't he cute!!! Bon Jovi Rocks.....This was taken with my Panasonic Lumix 10x optical zoom.

Well she's back. This time Noel dressed up in a corset made of Stampin'Up Designer Paper. This was a birthday card for a very good friend..male of course. I drew the design with my Pazzles Software and cut it out from the two different papers. Then I inked the edges of the lighter paper so it would stand out! The eyelets were set with the new Crop-A-dile II Big bite. Which is a great tool for

This is another project for my Pazzles Design Team 2008 that I am now able to post. The theme for this project was Best Friend. Well the paper they sent me was called "Wanted"....and my best friend was my Best Fur Friend. This Word Book was really a labor of love dedicated to my poodle; Samantha. Everything was designed by me for this Word Book. The Font I used had a western flair to it. I used

This was a creation I made for the Pazzles Design Team that I can now publish. They send you paper and accessories with a theme. For this project we had to use Perfect Pearls and the pen tool. Well that did not work for me because the Perfect Pearls Pen tool tip smooshed and the lines became mushy. So I designed the swirls to match the paper, cut them out of thin chipboard and used a verigated

This is my version of Stampin'Up's "Show on the go". I bought 2 "Cork Boards" from Costco. ($ ~20.00 ea) Took them apart and threw the cork and cheap board away. Went to Home Depot and had 2 boards of masonite (~$10.00) cut to fit and then I took my chop saw and cut the corners off. Purchased some padded ©Velcro fabric (commercial wide) (~$50.00) and adhered (3M Super 77 adhesive) the fabric to

I have been seeing a lot of people asking for the color codes for printer ink match ups to Stampin' Up' Ink colors. I can not give credit to the original person who designed this with all the coding because the person who gave this to me did not know who did it originally either. I took the colors and put them into a Word Doc and then turned them into a PDF file. Click on this link and you will

This is the card I did for my first Hostess party away from the comfort of my own studio! This card and the cute Magnet Coaster Calendar contributed to a great party. This Two Step Stampin' set; "Blossoms Abound" was really a big winner. All but one person ordered the set. I apologize for the yellow appearing envelope. It really is more of a linen color.

Some used SU purchases that I scored from others that were kind enough to sell to me. The third one had Happy Birthday written on it.....Ummm that one puzzled me. WOW!

Took some Real Red and made little scallop edge with a corner rounder. Then used the "Love" roller with Real Red ink on the front and the edges of the tissue paper.

My upline showed me that if you cut the back off the catalog and put a spiral coil on the back of your catalog it is easier to open and view. She is paying $4.00 for every catalog she does this to at Staples. She also has a clear cover put on hers too for that price. Great Idea!! I have had a GBC combbind system for at least 20 years. So last year I purchased a RubiCoil from Bonnie's Best Craft

My fingers are sore...I made the mistake of designing a cute little Valentine card for the leadership swap with 4 brads...one on each corner.....that equals 200 brads for 50 cards. 10 cards took twenty minutes to put in 40 brads. That equals 1 hour and 40 minutes of poking my fingers and poking under my fingernail to split the brads. One brad per card did not look right so I opted for 200 brads.

Did everyone eat their Black Eyed Peas for good luck in the New Year? Yup! Good old southern tradition. Every year on New Years day I go to my old street where I grew up and go to a good friends family home for this wonderful tradition of good food and good old friends (They were like my second parents growing up and since my parents are long gone, I get a bit of "family" time) Enough chit-chat.

This is one of my Christmas Cards this year. I recently hunted down this stamp set. It was retired, but I had to have it because of the poodle. Plus none of my stamping friends had seen this set yet. I used the Simply Scrappin' set Winter Bright from Stampin' Up. I really love the colors and the textured paper. I wish we could get textured paper by the single colors. The base for the stamping is

One of my gift bags using rollers and Sassy & Seasonal. This set is new to me, but it is retired. If has a poodle in it I have to have it! Rolled the tissue paper and bag with So Swirly and Real Red. Cut out the Sassy stamped images and put them on dimensionals. The gift is for my upline Sharon Comer....psst don't tell her I bought her an ATG gun... Sssshhhh.....Hope she likes it!

This was made in a matter of minutes. Using what I had just cut for the 10 minute nugget box. Adding some Real Red to the Textured Wild Wasabi, I used a piece of snowflake paper on the red. With a quick stamp from the Warm Words set punched out with the large oval punch and gluing it to a metal window from my Hodgepodge hardware, I added a little red gingham ribbon to tie it together with some
