I can only Imagine

This is a wooden box I bought from Michael's and covered with cardstock using modpodge. I sanded the edges, and then I cut the word imagine by welding the letters together on my Gypsy. I used the Songbird cartridge for that, and the swirl was from the Cindy Loo cartridge. I then used some Basic Grey pearls to dress up the box. I adhered a few flowers that were clasped with a brad to finish it off. I put one word ideas in the middle so my partner that received this could use her imagination, or get her mojo going to get creative! I think I might need one of these for myself!

 Please let me know what you think! Thanks for looking!

M address book page

I was in an address book page swap a few years back and some of the pages got mangled in transit or were falling apart, so I had to redo them. Here is the first page I redid- the letter M. I participated in the collectors cut challenge and pulled Songbird font Cartridge and Cindy Loo cartridge. I had fun with this page. I used Viva Decor Pearl pen to add the black pearly accents. I had some Basic Grey sticker cardstock pages in my stash, so I peeled a few that I thought would match. I cut the M at shift shadow in 4 inches, and the green M shift at 4 inches. I used a filligree cut from Cindy Loo and did Shadow and 2 layers cut at 3 inches. Cardstock used was Stampin Up, DCWV, Basic Grey and Bazzil. I used a SU punch to make the tab. I had some extra stickers in my stash to put the M label on the tab. I hope you like how it turned out, like I do!

Tags made for tag swap

Happy Hump Day to all! I hope everyones week is going fantastic! I know mine isn't going fast enough! As of today, I leave in ONE WEEK to go to Branson to meet some wonderful women and do some crafting for 4 days!!!! I'm looking forward to the relaxation, but I know it will be a lack of rest, as most of us are night owls!


On to the tags I made for my yahoo group. I really like the simplicity and vintage look of this!

 I cut the tag using Design Studio, and cut it with my Cricut Expression. I chalked the edges with Dark Brown Cat's Eye Chalk ink, I stamped the cute musical image with Timber Brown StazOn Ink (it's starting to dry up, time to buy a new pad!). I cut the swirl using Songbird, and used my Xyron to adhere it to the tag. Before I put the swirl on the tag, I spritzed it with my homemade glimmer mist (Tim Holtz style of course!) I made a paper flower using scallop circles from my nestabilities. I used some rhinestones to dress up and add a bit of bling. I hope you like it! I really wanted to keep it simple and make itso someone were able to put a name on or whatever for a gift.





Have a fabulous Wednesday! Thanks for looking!

P.S.- I seem to be having issues with the code copying for the entire picture of the tag. I will do my best to fix later, but this is the one photo that is my absolute favorite!!!
