Tile Coaster

 
I needed a new coaster for my craft room so I made this one. I don't remember the name of the stamp but I picked this up last year at CKC.  It is one of my favorite stamps :-)  I used Staz On to stamp the image on my tile. I then sprayed a clear coat on it. While the clear coat was still wet I sprinkled very fine glitter on it.  I let it dry then sprayed it again. I covered the back with a piece of cork that I ran thru my Zyron sticker maker. I have made tile coasters before but never put the glitter on it. So we will see how it holds up.  It should be fine. Thanks for looking. Have a great day!!

Birthday Card

 
 


Ok I'm a scraplifter.  I admit it. But bugdiva from the cricut message board had the cutest idea I just had to try  making one.

Cricut challenge

I have been trying to do the challenges every night on the Cricut message board.  Some nights it is harder than others to get it done. Especially when I don't get off work until 6pm. Here is tonights challenge. It is a card for my second granddaughter that is due very soon.

I made this layout for tonights challenge on the Cricut message board.
My daughter has a band concert coming up and I thought I would get a head start on the layout.

I made this card using my new A Child's Year cart.  I made this one kind of simple thinking that I may send it to my Grandpa so I did not want it to be to girly looking.  It is very hard for me not to add and bling, stickles or flowers to anything I create.  I love this paper pack from K&Co.  It is very thick and double sided.  You can't tell from the picture but I did layer the sillouette on with pop dots with a shadow behind the image.

Altered ATG

Yay me!  I had bought an Atg last year and altered it purple as soon as I got it.  Well it turned out to be one of the defective ones so I sent it back and was sent a new one along with atg tape for my trouble :)
(Dummy me.  I fought with that first gun forever.  I guess I thought it was suppose to be hard to pull the tape on.  The new one is like butter! LOVE IT!!)
Anyway when I received my replacement I was feeling pink that day I guess cause this is how it ended up.  I could not find any rub ons that I really loved so I just cut the flourish from a cricut cart out of  white contact paper.  Added stickles and bling.  I bought my first bottle of Glimmer Mist and used it on the gun and the flowers.  Ok, I am now addicted to Glimmer Mist.  I may try and make my own though because I am going through that bottle very quick. 

Mailbox

Here is a one of the mailboxes I bought at Target.  I used a Valentine paper pack also from Target and some of my scraps to make this. This was the first mailbox I have altered.  It went together really fast!
