I'll Never Forget

I was visiting some other pages today and ran across this video that we all are probably familiar with. Ten years later I still cannot wrap my mind around this. It still seems impossible that something like this could have happened to us. It's amazing how people have united. My prayers go out to all those who lost a loved one that day. And my deepest respect and prayers to all those that survived.

This video is still hard to watch.

Cricut Imagine Basics

Yeah... I made another video. I hope you all enjoy it. In this video I just go over the buttons and functions of the Imagine. I hope to start making some videos of some actual projects. I'm also interested in what kind of videos you may want to see. So leave a comment with your requests and suggestions.
Thanks again for watching :)


I've decided that this video will be the first in a series. While I quickly went over the basics of the Imagine in this video, I will be going a little more in depth on my next videos. I really look forward to making and sharing these videos with you. I also hope that you will leave me suggestions on things you may want to know about.

My FIRST video! Cricut Craft Room and the Imagine

Hello ladies! Today I made my first video. I'm not super happy with how it turned out but I do like the simple page layout that I was able to make using Cricut Craft Room and my Imagine. When I was editing the video the quality seemed so much better than when I played it back on Youtube. But I worked really hard on making this video and doing all the editing that I am just going to go ahead and work with this one. I will have to figure out a better way to get the quality I want for the next video. AND... I'll work on my narration. Feels a little dry to me... well... ALOT dry to me. LOL!
However... for now... here is my video. I used Winter Woodland, Christmas and Mr. Frosty Imagine cartridges. I only used white cardstock.


Hope you enjoy it. And don't forget to leave comments. I always welcome a little constructive criticism so please feel free to say what you think. It will only help make my next videos better.  Thanks!

Stampin Up!'s newest demonstrator.... ME!!!

Hello Ladies! I'm so excited that I am now an Independent Demonstrator with Stampin Up!. I was with Stampin Up! several years ago but had to step away. Now I'M BACK! And I can't wait to share all the new projects, stamp sets, ideas and embellishments with you. Stampin Up (SU) has added so many new things since I had last seen a catalog. They have so many new wonderful stamp sets, new colors, new projects, new embellishments and some awesome new tools. They have even added some digital software for those that like to create digitally. They've really expanded their scrapbooking items as well. I love all the new tools, especially all the punches and Big Shot items.

I'm just getting started so I have lots of things to get in place. Right now I'd like to invite anyone that is local to come to my Open House on Sept 1 @ 7:00pm. You can also check out my website to order on line. Soon I will be posting my upcoming events, specials and clubs. One of the things that I'm really excited about is my Virtual Stamp Club... more details on that later.

For now... I'm off to create some new projects with my new stuff. I will post pictures as I get some things complete. Until then... feel free to log onto the website and browse our online catalog. Online ordering is so easy. Let me know if you have any questions and enjoy!

I used Hoot N Holler Cricut Lite Cartridge. My mom LOVE LOVE LOVES owls. I showed it to her and she bought it for me immediately... as an early birthday present. I don't have her love for owls but this cartridge is adorable.
Here's the card......
