Hey all!
I'm back! Sorry I haven't been here in a while. My family has been through a lot since May. My Mom found out she had colon cancer and had to have surgery. Thank the Lord it was contained and they were able to get it all!!!!.She still is having pain from the surgery. Her right hand is really giving her a fit too. Arthritis. So I have stayed pretty busy . My parents can't get around any more so I have to take them to their appointments and other errands. I have problems too with arthritis in my hands, knees and lower back. Sometimes I think I may have to give up crafting. My hands hurt pretty bad sometimes. Well I hope everyone is doing well. Thought I would post some videos I have made for You Tube. I spend most of my time just posting there.
So here are some videos of what I have been making lately:
Hope you enjoy the videos. I had fun making all these projects. Take care everyone.

New cards 05/03/13
I got the idea for this card from Vickypgr on You Tube. She used the May card kit from SimonSaysStamp to create her card. Of course I did my own thing and made one similar to hers since I don't have the card kit. I really love the way mine turned out using materials I had on hand.
This is a video of the card I made for my Mom for Mother's Day. Hope you like it. Below are
pictures of each page except the front page. Thanks for watching.

New cards 4-27-13
Hi All!
I'm back again with some new cards and a video. Please excuse the ink on my fingers in the video. I had been stamping .
I got the idea for this card on You Tube. I used digital papers that I purchased from Stampin' Up, all except for the little flag. I used a navy blue shimmer card stock for the base card and cream color card stock for the greeting and one of the borders.. I printed out a picture of a sailboat and paper pieced the sailboat putting each section on mounting tape. Turned out cute.
This card I made using Fred,She Said Designs. The butterfly and marigolds are their designs. I punched out the small butterflies with my Martha Stewart punch using Specialty papers. The happy birthday is a PaperTrey Ink stamp.I used Stickles on the flowers and big butterfly to glitter them up.
The inside of the card is background paper that goes with the digital kit. Birthday greeting is from Hero Arts. And I used two of the punched butterflies. I also used small pearl embellishments on the butterflies.
This is a Tri-Shutter card. I have made these before but I saw this one on Cardz TV and had to make one similar to Mary's. The black and white papers are a free download from Gina K. I also found the papers for the dress on the internet. I used Cardz TV stamps. The girl is a Cricut cut out from Forever Young pg.42. and the sentiment designs are from Elegant Edges page 21.
This is an album style card I made for a friend of mine to give to a very special girl who has DS. She loves horses and cowgirls. Hope she likes this.
This is my video showing this card. Enjoy!

Another cute card to share
Hey everyone!!!
I have really been busy this past month. My Mom and Dad have had Dr appointments and I have been busy making cards for a friend. I sent her 41 and she bought them all!!!! WOW!!! I am so thankful for her. I have another friend who will be celebrating her 5th wedding anniversary so I have been busy making her some cute note cards. She has two Scotties, one black and one wheat. I purchased some cute graphic art from Fred, She Said Designs and made her some cards. I thought I would share one with you.
Aren't they adorable!!!!! And here's the inside all ready for a message.Check out the cute paw print paper I already had and the cute paw print brad. The front papers are papers I bought from an online digital store which I can't remember the name right now. I used a Fiskars 3 in one corner punch for the black polk a dot layer and for the inside layer. I will have another card soon.Thanks for stopping by. Carol
