Fashionista and Roxie Card

I love the Fashionista Stamp Set, but I had some problems figuring out how to add some color her dress.  I finally solved that problem by paper piecing the dress and shopping bag. You can make this card plus several others in my next All Occasion Card Class on May 31st at Scotty's Bar in Deer Lodge.  Click Here if you are interested in signing up for this class.

How to make the perfect bow with a fork

I found this video on My Craft Channel and thought I would share it with everyone.  The video shows how to tie the perfect bow using a kitchen fork.  I am so going to try this.

The Perfect Bow.

Have a great day

And the Winner is.....

Congratulations  Kailee B.  you have won a paper pack of your choice from the Spring/Summer Idea Book. Let me know which paper pack you would like.

As you may have noticed, I did not get next week's layout posted.  This was because my son had a slumber party at our house on Friday Night and I was scared to leave the boys upstairs alone while I was scrapbooking.

Hopefully, this will tie you over until I get the layout posted.

Welcome

I decided to try my hand at blogging... I am actually not sure what I am doing, but I guess I will learn along the way.  This blog is for my Close To My Heart customers to remind them about the latest events  and a place to post information I think they will find useful for scrapbooking and card making. If you have any questions or comments please let me know.
