K-Cup Holder SVG for sale, Stampin' Up , and other goodies!



 

 
 
Hey All!!
 
 
I am FINALLY back to being able to do routine posts and videos again!!! WHOOP WHOOP!!!
 
Mom finally is home and getting into a routine with her therapy at home, and she is starting to feel like her old self again! Big Brandon is up to the same stuff, and Bub is enjoying school and FINALLY into a routine where he knows what to do when he gets home! Something to eat, homework, reading, THEN playtime!
 
As for me, TONS of exciting things have been going on! Got a big craft show coming up Thursday night! Got TONS of great things made for it! I will be showing off some items over the next few days!
 
I rejoined Stampin' Up again. It was a VERY hard decision for me, because I LOVE Close To My Heart products and ESPECIALLY the Cricut Cartridges, but, for me it was more difficult to sell and unfortunately, I did not care for their paper. You ALL know I have a love affair with my paper! LOL! Also, it was VERY difficult to navigate through the online ordering and understanding where I stood for the month. It is a WONDERFUL company, but, just not for me! So, I rejoined my Stampin' Up clan again! I LOVE IT!!! I joined under the NUMBER ONE sales woman in the company, Tami White! I hope she is impressed with what I can do! I wanna make her proud!!! And FYI, the NEW STAMPIN' TRIMMER was just released and I have it!! It's a WONDERFUL little addition to any craft room! Click the picture below to go right to my Stampin' Up online store to purchase the new Stampin' Trimmer for $29.95!!!



 
 
Another thing that happened was that I am no longer affiliated with My Cricut Craft Room. As you all know, I am in customer service for my day job. I ADORE MY JOB! I may complain that I am tired and all, but, its my love! I thrive from helping my customers, and being there for them! I love learning about them and their families, and I enjoy being a part of their "family"if you will. With that being said, and with all the negative information I have been hearing and finding out on my own, I no longer am with My Cricut Craft Room. For me, if it was not for my customers, I would not have a job. Even with Stampin' Up, if I do not have customers, I can not afford my crafty lifestyle! I appreciate my customers each and every day! So, for the owner of My Cricut Craft Room to not appreciate and help out her customers when they need her, well, I just cannot be affiliated with that. I decided three weeks ago that it was time to step down. BUT, that was not the end of my Design Team friendships, nope, not at all! Stay tuned for the beginning of the year for more info on that!!!
 
The final new venture that I am taking is that I am now creating SVG files! I ADORE my Silhouette Cameo and my Silhouette Studio Designer Edition, so I decided to take that love affair and see what I can do with it!!! I will have a page to purchase my SVG's on my blog! They will be for the most part, $.99 as I start! So, would you like to see the first thing I created????
 

 
 
 
I created a K-Cup box which is PERFECT for gift giving, craft shows, teacher gifts, etc! This SVG set is for the Silhouette Cameo, and comes with:
 
Lid
Bottom of box
Box insert to hold 4 K-Cups
Patterned Piece cut outs for top of lid, sides of lid, and sides of box bottom
Belly band for the box
Tag for stamp
 
I hope you enjoy it! You can purchase it for $.99 by clicking below!
 


I will email you within the same business day of payment.


OK all! Thanks so much for listening to my info!! And I hope you will purchase my 1st ever SVG  for sale!!!

Hope to catch you all Craftin' and Stampin'!

Hiding In My Craft Room Super Scraps Saturday!!!

Hey All!!!


WHEW, what a week!!! I am EXHAUSTED!!! I am very much ready for my three day weekend to begin! I have a LOT of crafty time planned for this weekend because we have a big craft show coming up on Thursday! I CANT WAIT! Its in my town, so my friends get to see a little more of what I do when I am at home!!

As for today, its SUPER SCRAPS SATURDAY over at Hiding In My Craft Room! This is ALWAYS one of my favorite days, because as I have said time and time again, I love paper. I have a paper obsession, and I REFUSE to get rid of even the tinest scrap...especially if it can be used! Well, for super scraps Saturday, we use our scraps to create a project!

For my project today, I pulled out some design paper to use on my project. I had just made a bunch of items with this paper for my craft show and I loved the designs, so I made that scrap paper into a card!! Check it out:


Very basic card, But I love it! I love the colors, I love the placement I used, and I love that I saved a banner cut from the Silhouette Store to use for my sentiment! That was also a scrap from a project I made (that I still need to share with you all because it made it into Cutting Edge Magazine)!! I used my Martha Stewart leaf punch, Stampin' Up square punch, and my We R Memory Keepers corner rounder punch. Took me 5 minutes from start to finish. LOVE FAST CARDS!

OK all, make sure you check out my DT sisters projects as well, and then link YOUR project up over at Hiding In My Craft Room!!

Hope to catch you all Craftin' and Stampin'!!!

Hiding In My Craft Room-3 Favorite Colors!

Hey All!!!

It feels like its been FOREVER since my last post! So much has happened around here, its not even funny! We are THANKFULLY all safe and sound after Hurricane Sandy came through NJ. I wish I could say the same for the Jersey Shore :( Its SO HORRIBLE what has happened there! I just cannot get over the devastation! I really want to try to get out to show my support and help with getting the shore cleaned up!

I am thinking also about setting up a donation box on my blog. All the proceeds that I collect will go to the families at the shore to help with clean up. I am also thinking of setting up a gift fund. I know its probably the last thing on the families minds, but the holidays are coming up, and I am a FIRM believer that every child should wake up to at least 1 toy on Christmas morning. I will talk more about this idea at a later time though!

For today, we have a challenge over at HIDING IN MY CRAFT ROOM, and for today, our challenge is to use your 3 favorite colors, along with an image that was so kindly donated from Scrapbook Stamp Society!

As for my favorite colors, my favs change throughout the seasons! The ONLY color I love ALL the time is Purple! BUT, when I am putting 3 or more together for a season, I have my favs! For instance, for Autumn, I LOVE Browns, Reds, and Turquoise colors! Don't know why, but I ADORE them together! So, that's what I chose for this post!

Here is my card:


I know it seems rather simple, but I did not want to overpower the BEAUTIFUL image that I colored from the Scrapbook Stamp Society! I even found a page from my new DCWV Autumn Splendor DSP! Doesn't it go together so nicely? I even found Turquoise ribbon that I put in the middle of the card to pull out the color of her flower!

I hope you enjoyed my card! Please make sure you check out the rest of the girls projects over at Hiding In My Craft Room! Then be sure to link up your project!!!

OK All!! Hope to find you Craftin' and Stampin'!
