Author This is what I get for hanging out on YouTube watching all of your beautiful swivel charms. Now I’m addicted to making them! Lol. Visited M’s two days ago and bought a bunch of charms and glass beads on sale and then had to stop at the store today and buy some more. Yup, I’m addicted!
Here are my first two charms and a video.
I was honored to be selected by My Scrap Chick to make a project from their new birdhouse explosion box cut. This was my first explosion box and I thoroughly enjoyed making it! After watching my video, head on over to My Scrap Chick and check out all their awesome cuts!

I’m definitely putting in another order very soon and I know I’m going to be going thru these flowers like crazy. I just want to put them on everything. In fact, I just had to put them on my MTF WSC #70 submission. Here is the sketch we had to follow.

I’ve been wanting to make these sour cream candy containers for quite some time now. In fact, I bought the crimper over a year ago and have never used it until tonight. Can you believe it! Peachy Keen is having a challenge where you have to create a project using a toilet paper roll and a Peachy Keen stamp. The sour cream container immediately popped into my head. These are very easy to make. Just cut your paper to 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 then use some strong adhesive to secure the paper to your toilet paper roll. Use some more strong adhesive to close the ends shut — with the ends going opposite directions. Crimp the ends and you have yourself a nice, sturdy sour cream candy container. Easy peasy! While I was at M’s last week, I noticed that the Puffers were on clearance. So I picked up some heart shaped ones. I got mine for $1.49 each (normally $5.99). There was a gem on the front of the hearts. I carefully took the gem off and then stamped an adorable Peachy Keen face to the front of the heart using StazOn ink. Your Peachy Keen stamps are not just for stamping paper, you can stamp just about anything with them. Cool, huh.
I’m also entering this project into
