Hey All!!


Welcome to the Damask Divas April Blog Hop featuring ARIANA!!!

You should of arrived here via LISA,  but if you did not, please start at the beginning HERE!!! 

This month, the divas are showcasing the BEAUTIFUL Ariana Paper Pack! 


Isn't it BEAUTIFUL???? I LOVE all the colors in this pack!!! I went nuts over it, and I actually feel in LOVE with the Ariana Workshop On The Go!!! Here is what it looks like:


Isn't the stamp just AWESOME? I see this stamp set PERFECTLY fitting a Graduation page, or even a page showing a promotion!!!! 

Well, I went to my FIRST Crop on Friday night where I ACTUALLY worked on something instead of talking the whole time, lol! I always have to be a social butterfly, but this time, I MENT BUSINESS! LOL! My goal was honestly to just get my cutting done...I thought for SURE I would go off and be talking after that, so I didn't set my hopes up to high, lol! But the more I worked on the cutting and stamping, the more I was DETERMINDED to get it done before I left...and guess what? I DID!!! AND...Can I just say this workshop on the go is PERFECT for anyone because if you do not have a Cricut, NO PROBLEM! It was created using my paper cutter and fussy cutting!!! 

Here is what my layout looks like!

Hey All!!!

I had my card class that I teach the other night at my community center, and we did the One Sheet Wonder cards (Find original post HERE). We did Birthday, Easter, Thank You, Hello, and Sympathy. 

My favorite card I actually made was a Sympathy card that night. It's weird because I always find that Sympathy cards are the HARDEST to make. 

This one came naturally. And sadly, I have to use it already. One of my favorite customers from my day job passed away :( I will be sending it to her daughter to express my heartfelt sympathy. 





SUPPLIES:
Ivy Lane Paper Pack 
Silver Shimmer Trim
Hollyhock & Pear Ink
Words of Comfort Stamp Set
(All supplies are from Close To My Heart)



Here is the video showing HOW you get any of the Close To My Heart Cricut Collections FOR FREE!

Home Decor Sign Using Design Space and Close To My Heart Art Philosophy-Pic Heavy!

Hey All!!!

For today's post, I wanted to show you how I made a Home Decor piece for my entry way into my home. I really LOVE the Name signs that say Est. and the wedding date of the couple with their last name on it. I have seen them all over Etsy, as well as craft shows. Well, I CERTAINLY would not of bought one when I am VERY familar with vinyl and my cutting machines! I just have been...LAZY! Well, today was the day to get over being lazy! I wanted to make this sign... So I did!!! 

Here is the steps I took:

1. First I took the piece of wood that I purchased at Michael's and I sanded the rough edges down. Then, I took the color paint that I bought and I painted the whole piece. 


 2. Once the paint dried, I took my Glossy Mod Podge and using a foam brush (like $.25 in Michael's in the paint aisle) and wiped ALL over the top and side of the piece of wood. 

 3. I designed the letters and words that I wanted to use in Cricut Design Space. I used the Art Philosophy Cartridge letters to make my name. Here is the video of how I set it up so I knew it would work. 



4.  Then, after I set it up, I cut them out and weeded the letters (pulled out the offsets that you will not use when you transfer them to your project).

 5. After I weeded the letters, I used Contact paper to attach my letters all in one piece to transfer onto the wood. 

6. I placed and adhered my letters onto the wood. I repeated with my other two sentences (our first names and the established by date).
7. After I got EVERYTHING down where I wanted them to go, I took out my Mod Podge again and sealed my letters to the wood. 

Here is the finished project pics!!! I LOVE how it turned out and cannot wait until I get some Command Strips to hang it up in my entry way! I think that will go on my Honey Do list for tomorrow!!!








SUPPLIES:
Wood Sign
Wood Paint
Mod Podge
Foam Brush
Vinyl (I use My Vinyl Direct-Link is above in sidebar)
Cricut Design Space
Cricut Explore 
Close To My Heart Art Philosophy


HOWEVER..
