Have YOU stopped to have FUN today?

Hi Bloggers, it is Noelle posting today!  I did!  I highly suggest you do too! 

You can't really see the pink ink very well but it says "i had a fun time."  I ADORE the Filigree Rectangle Window A7 Card - Vertical from CC&M!  That shape makes me so happy!  It is so much fun to work with!

I embossed my Unity Kit-of-the-Month stamp and colored it with Stickles.   Quick and easy and a perfect thanks for my 14 year old who made sure today was fun!

The paper/ribbon is secure as can be with some Killer White Tear-able Tape!

Thank you so much for stopping by today!

Happy Shopping!



Happy Birthday Tuck & Close Bag

Hi! I'm sharing 'just a little something' that looks like you spent hours to make, but only took a short time!

My daughter-in-law's birthday is also Christmas day...so I always try to make her card or gift bag as far away from looking "Christmas" as possible. This time I chose a Tuck and Close Bag, XL, in Bazzill Criss Cross Forget-Me-Not from Creative Cuts and More!

It's so easy...every die cut comes pre-scored, all you have to do is assemble and decorate! This particular die cut has one seam to stick together, and that was easy with White Tear-able Tape!

I love the flaps on this box!

I'll tuck a check or giftcard inside, but it's plenty big enough to hold some large items!

Thanks for stopping!

I can't get enough of this banner album!

Hi Everyone!  It is Noelle posting today!

I ADORE The Banner #04 Album & Chipboard Set!

I apologize for the bad picture of Carlee.  It does not have a crazy film on it.  LOL

I decided for this one I am only punching one hole for a single ring.  You can see it in the corner there.  I want this one to turn just like a normal album.  The last Banner Album I did I put two rings on the top of the pennant.  One more thing I love about these shape albums.  I get to decide where to put the rings.  The possibilities are endless and I LOVE that!

I have not mentioned the Killer Tapes lately.  I also really love the red and the white tear-able.  The prices can not be beat!

There are 2 widths in the White Tear-able and 3 widths in the Red Tacky.  You can not beat the prices anywhere that I have ever seen.  Click HERE to see them all!

Thank you so much for coming by today!

Pop-Up Christmas

Hi, Dawn Lusk here, sharing this Pop-Up Christmas card.
It's not too early to start you know!

I used the Pop-Up A2 Insert with Card from Creative Cuts and More. The insert is Neenah Smooth Cream, the outside is Bazzill Canvas Wisteria. Having the pre-cut and scored cards makes designing a breeze! All I did was stamp my sentiment, add a little greenery and some color, and using White Tear-able Tape, attached it to the pop-up!

Here's the front

This is a new set being released tomorrow from Our Daily Bread designs.

Thanks for stopping!

Accordian Christmas

Hi! Dawn Lusk here,
sharing this
Accordian Insert with A6 Card from
Creative Cuts and More!

It's definitely not too early to start those Christmas cards, and what better way to speed up the process than with any of the pre-cut and scored cards from CC&M!

I chose the Accordian Card since I wanted to have my ornament hanging freely on the inside. The "accordian" insert is Pear Crush Bazzill Smoothies and the "card" is Perfectly Plum SU Smooth. It quickly goes together with the help of White Tear-able Tape along the edges!

I used Holly Ribbons embossing folder, running it through twice on my Grand Calibur, to get the entire insert. The ornament is a peek at a new set coming from Our Daily Bread designs, Holiday Ornaments.

Here is the front, with Christmas Door, also coming in Oct. from ODBD.

Stop by Creative Cuts and More, Terry has it jam-packed with great products!
There is also a Gallery to help you with ideas.

A Fun Little Birthday Bag!

Hi! Dawn Lusk here with a quick simple gift bag.



You know, when I'm pressed for time and need something easy, I love reaching into my stash of Creative Cuts and More. Everything comes pre-cut and scored, ready to assemble and embellish! You can't get much easier!!

I needed something to tuck a birthday check into for my son-in-law that was turning 40! I chose this Mini Bag Purse in Bazzill Beetle Black! A gift card could also fit nicely.

Goodness...40 seems young when you're past mid-50's! I colored this Sassy Cheryl's digi in some colors that I didn't think my SIL would wear! Fun colors to go with the fun image!

Using White Tear-able Tape made putting this Mini Purse Bag together even easier!

Check out CC&M,
I know you'll find all sorts of things to make your crafting easier!

A Sliding Pop-up

Hello! I've got a Sliding Pop-up Card from Creative Cuts and More to share with you today!

Here's the front or "outside" of the card.

I used Neenah Smooth White and Bazzill Canvas Leapfrog. After stamping my image on the Neenah white I sponged with Distress inks.
I love these Sliding Pop-ups as they're different from your "normal folded" card and being cut and scored already makes it a cinch to put together! Just add a little Killer White Tape!

And the inside....



I added a piece of white to the inside and left it blank to write a note to the receiver.



Be sure to check out CC and M, Terry has added lots of new items, lots of fun!!

Fashionable Purse For Any Lady

Anyone that knows me- knows I love my purses!

I seen this die cut at Creative Cuts and More and knew I needed to make for a friend as a gift and decorations.

I know she will save it!

Coin Purse Card with Clasps & Ball Chain Handle

So sorry for the bad picture

I used this patterned  design from my stash and cut it in half and attached to the front and back.

I then decided it needed some glitter!!!

Used a favorite glue of mine and added a clear iridescent kind.

I loved the ball chain handle- how realistic does this look?

After using  Tearable Killer White Tape to attach the lining and clasps.

I decided to only close the bottom a little so I can put maybe a small gift: a gift certificate,a favorite lipstick or lip gloss. Is there anything else you would think would work in this cutie?

Dawn Lusk here sharing this Waterfall graduation card from Creative Cuts and More. I don't know about you, but there seems to be quite a few graduating and I'm busy making lots of cards!

Having pre-cut and scored cardstock is such a help when I'm mass producing or in a hurry!! This is Bazzill and Neenah cardstock from Creative Cuts and More in Huckleberry Pie, Pear Crush, Loganberry Pie and White... makes you hungry doesn't it!!

It's so easy to put together too! I used Killer White Tear-able Tape to adhere the mechanism to the base and the squares to the mechanism. I dry embossed the edges with Cuttlebug border, Frills.

A fun graduation card! All images are from Mark's Finest Papers, Here Comes The Grad, and colored with Copics.

Made For A Princess

Don't we all have some days when we want to be a princess?

This fun, adorable,and totally alterable Castle Mini Album & Chipboard Set
from Creative Cuts and More Store is just so so fun to play with.
I chose a very soft pink in Bazzill papers and it worked perfectly with the supplies I used.
You know you can pick any type paper, texture or color for your favorite die cut.

Hope you enjoy my album.

Here is a view from the front while it is closed

Here is the front page with a sample picture of a couple princesses.

I embossed the side columns so they looked like brick.

A little fur and pearls and fun ribbon.

The second page with some fun patterned paper to go with the fun theme .

I distressed the edges and inked them

That pink gathered pink and ric rac just seemed to work.

Now I know I needed to have a page where I could write a story - ONCE UPON A TIME.
I embossed this coordinating paper and added the ric rac and ribbon.

The last page was just fun as can be- no princess is complete with out a magic wands that can be detached.

So what do you think of my album fit for a princess?

From Me to You!

Dawn Lusk here sharing these
two items from Creative Cuts and More, Butterfly Box and a Pop-Up Card.

Coming pre-cut and scored takes all the fretting out of creating! Just add some embossing, bling, designer paper and some sentiments or images and you're ready to go!  I used White Tear-able Tape which also makes the job much faster!

This is actually the "insert" for the Pop-Up card, all I did was cover the pop-up part on the outside with paper from Bo Bunny with colors that matched my image on the inside pop-up!

I love the Bazzill cardstock! The Butterfly Box is Pear Crush (smoothie), the Pop-Up card is Sprout Green (canvas texture).

All sentiments, image and embossing plate from Our Daily Bread designs.

Color Block...Fun!

Hi, Dawn LUSK here! LOL, did you know there are two
"Dawn L's" on the team?!! Funny!

I'm sharing this Color Block A2 Mat card, Bazzill Blue Jean Criss Cross cardstock, from Creative Cuts and More ... the work is done for you, all you have to do is create!! How cool is that!


I lightly traced the blocks with pencil, then put some sticky notes down to mask the blocks before stamping.

I used 2 stamp sets and a total of 6 stamps for this card! I have a tutorial on my blog how to do clouds.
Also, see how to do different colors on a silhouette stamp on my blog.

Killer White Tear-able Tape makes it so easy to adhere the mat to the base!

I hope I've inspired you to try one of these fun Color Blocks!

Appetizers & Drinks!

Hello everyone!  It's Noelle posting today!  It's finally fall in the Denver area!  Beautiful leaves every where and the kids are going to get to go Trick-Or-Treat without the snow falling!

Have you tried this Apron Pocket A7 Card yet?  It is one of my FAVORITES!  It's not just a card!  You can make it into an album of your choice or try our Holiday Treats Apron Recipe Kit!  I am making another mini album using the Unity Homemade By stamps.  The ribbon is from my stash.  I am pretty sure the polka dot is from Creative Impressions and the lace is from JoAnn's.  It was super easy to attach using the Killer White Tear-able Tacky Tape!   Honestly, the whole thing took me less than 30 minutes!  You can't really tell but on the stamp I used a gelly roll pen and some glossy accents!  Super fun and easy, that's how I like it!  Thanks for stopping by today!
