Giveaway! It’s been a while since I’ve done one…so here’s the giveaway. Leave me a post and just say hi. Let me know know what you would like to see more of. (Examples include, paper crafting projects, sewing, home decor, gift ideas, or anything else that fancies you) I’ll use the Random Generator to pick from among the comments. Leave a comment by Friday, November 7th. I’ll pick a winner on Saturday. Here’s what you win:

I’ll emboss your choice of colored paper with any of the embossing folders I have and send those to you. This is great if you don’t have a Cuttlebug and want some fun papers! I’ll emboss enough 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ sheets for you to do 25 Holiday cards. I’ll use any of the embossing folders I have and send those out to you. So, just leave me a comment, let me know what you’d like to see more of, and I’ll pick a winner that will get their choice of paper color and embossing! I’ll get the paper, emboss, and ship to the winner! How easy is that?!?

Happy Crafting! I’ll have some more sewing patterns again soon. I’m working out the final touches now! Don’t forget to leave a comment to enter the giveaway! See you soon!

This is a Birthday Card I made for a coworker of mine. It’s hard to tell but the brown petals have clear embossing powder on them to make it shiny and a little rhinestone center. As usual, it’s much better looking in person!

This one is for no one in particular…just a fun birthday card that fits inside a standard business sized envelope. There’s a little folder inside to hold money or a gift card. I scrunched up the ribbon to make the icing on the cake and then sewed it to hold in place. It turned out really nicely! -Erin

Well, I said I’d go to bed early tonight but my new stamp sets just came in and I just HAD to try them out. So I told myself I’d make one card and then go to bed….but then I made some more, and then Percy (one of two of our furry babies) decided to try to get inside the printer. It didn’t work to well but it was sure cute. So below are pictures of some more cards I made plus some of Percy trying to infiltrate the printer.

This is one of the first shaker cards I’ve done in a while. There are black and green beads that shake over the froggie picture.

This was a pretty easy card. I used a brown satin ribbon and pleated it. The background paper is actually a picture of a rug that I pulled off of www.rugs-direct.com. The contemporary rugs make great backgrounds!

This is a card using a new stamp set and paper colors that I just got. Fun, but simple…

And here’s one last picture of Percy trying to get inside the printer. Right before this picture was taken his paws were all the way up inside the printer. There’s a little red light in there that he’s always trying to get.
