Glass Blocks

Here are some pictures of some of the glass blocks that I created using vinyl. The nativity scene is from one of the newest cartridges by Cricut. I just love how this turned out. This was a lot of fun to do and I know I will be definately making some more soon.
I'm showing it two ways. The first one is showing with white lights and the other one is showing it with colored lights. I still have to finish decorating them with some ribbons.

Card Scentiments

I'm so excited that I have finally been able to list some of my fabulous scents for cards. These will be sure to add some pizazz to your cards. I will be listing new scents daily so be sure to stop over and check them out.

Other items will be listed soon as well. They will include cards, word/shape albums, embellishments and much more. Stop by www.craftyscentiments.etsy.com

Basic Cards

Here are a few cards that were made for my sister's birthday. I wanted to keep them very basic since I can a bit overboard when decorating.

I think that Every Day Paper Dolls cartridge is one of my favorites. It has so much on it and can be used in a variety of ways.

I'm Back

Wow, I know it's been such a long time since I last posted. I have been busy, but I know that't not much of an excuse for not posting.

I'm getting ready for the holidays like everyone else is. I know it will come faster than I think it will and I hope I will be prepared for it. It seems like no matter how much I prepare or how much I do, there is always something else that needs to be done. I'll be adding some more pictures of some of the projects I have been working on.

Gift Basket

Here is a cutomized gift basket made for a co-worker when she retired. It is filled with all of her favorite scents. Lime Supreme is an all around best seller. Most use it as an air freshener for the bathroom. It certainly does the job. Jungle Love is a great fruity concoction that combines fresh squeezed oranges, pineapples, bananas, coconut, and fresh kiwi. Tropical Delight is a blend of coconut, fresh sliced pineapple, with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Clementines are a hybrid between the tangerine and a bitter orange. I call it The Christmas Orange.

She is a great customer and a great friend. I'm still a little sad that she is not at the job with us, but she is really enjoying the retired life.

Halloween


Today I thought I would post some of my creations that I made for halloween in the past. I usually set these up at work or at home. Now that I have the Cricut I will be making some brand new decorations. I'm going to use my PDDU cartridge to make some characters. I want to make some little villages from the new cartridge Winter Woodlands when it becomes available.
Here is a tissue box that I stitched. I love the cute teddy bear. However this one is my favorite. The dracula with the coffin filled with candy is a big hit when I set it out at work.

Paper Cutz Challenge 4



Here is another card I made for my first try at a challenge. This is for the Paper Cutz Challenge 4. The challenge is to make a card without using the colors orange and black. Not as easy as you might think. I used lime green and purple cardstock along with a patterned paper, Martha Stewart punch and a mummy from the cricut cartridge Paper Doll Dress Up.

Halloween notecard


Here is a 3 x 3 note card i made. It was so much fun. The vampire is a brad that I found online.

Bakery Soy Melts

Since this is my first post to my blog, I thought I would start off by showcasing some of my candle creations. I make a variety of soy flameless candles and tarts. I just love the never ending possibilities it has.

Here is one of my favorite novelty soy melts that I create. These are mini donut shapes and they are very popular. These are scented Birthday Cake and are really mouth watering. My favorite scents to use are bakery, fruit & citrus.
