Flat Stanley Adventure


Our family had the honor of hosting Flat Stanley in our home. Since he came to New Mexico, we dressed him up like an Indian (there are many tribes around here) and made his shirt match the NM state flag. We had a lot of fun with him and will be sending him back to our niece, soon, along with pictures of all our adventures. : )

Random Stuff

Well, I survived End of Fiscal Year at work. : ) Here's to another great year... I really am loving my job. :) I am looking forward to taking some time off soon so I can start crafting again. There just aren't enough hours in the day. lol. We thought when we moved we would have time to relax and I thought I would have more time to craft. Not!! There is something to do here just about every weekend and work keeps me pretty busy. Can't wait for the snow to start falling so we can learn how to ski. : ) Like the post says -- this is totally random stuff. hahaha.

No new projects to share, but thought I'd update my blog today. My project for today is to organize all my stamp sets and make a binder with the images of the ones I have. I think I may have to sell a few of the sets that I've had for over two years that have never been touched. It's so hard to let them go, but sometimes the reality is that I'm just not going to use them. :( lol. Hope you all have a wonderful week ahead of you!

Cricut Projects



I love doing shadowboxes!! It is so much fun! I'm not sure which of these is my favorite. I love them all for different reasons. I'm not an artist, but I do feel as though I am somewhat creative, but doing these projects makes me feel like an artist. Figuring out the layout of everything, the embellishments to use... I know it's the same thing as a scrapbook page, but I guess since these are hung on the wall for all to see it feels more like an art project than a craft project. lol.
These are two of my all-time favorite cards. My friend, Darlene, taught us how to make the spinner card at a SU! workshop. That is the friendship card. I then put my own 'spin' on it and did the birthday card. These are really fun to make!

Cards

I'm trying to export some of my card pictures from my other blog. I'll try not to put an overwhelming amount of pictures on here. If you'd like to see all of my creations, you can visit my website at http://www.myscrapbookfancy.com/. Have a great weekend!

Here We Go...

Well, I'm trying a new approach to my blog. I didn't like how the other one looked and the features were limited, so I am now on blogspot. Woohoo!
