Tag, Tag, Tag, and Tag...

...here are pics of the 4 tags I made for a tag swap over at Cricut MB. We were to make a Christmas, Snowman, Angel, and New Years tag for our partner. I am also posting the beautiful tags I received from my partner Gwynne.

Ones I made:

bottlecap swap October 2011.wmv

Here's a video our hostess Teresa made of all the bottle caps from the swap. They're all so beautiful. I can't wait to get them back. Thanks Teresa!

Bottle caps....

...who knew bottle caps were so versatile? I didn't--that is until I joined a Circut MB bottle cap swap.  I joined 2 groups, Graphic45 and Vintage Christmas.  These are my very first bottle caps ever so I hope the other ladies in the swap aren't disappointed....

Thanks for stopping by!

Mini Album Swap...

....here's the mini album I made for my swap sis Tia. Her favorite color is purple so I tried to incorporate that into the mini as much as possible.

Here are a few pics of the front:

I received a beautiful album from Tia as well. I haven't taken pics of it yet but will add it to this post when I do.  Thanks for looking!

Been busy...

...working on a mini album for my swap sister (Hi, Tia).  I hope she likes it. Once completed and Tia has received it, I'll be posting pics. Stayed tuned...

A simple card...

....that took awhile to make because I am forever changing my mind on the color scheme. Oh well, it's all part of the joy of paper crafting! :-)  I did forget to take a picture of the inside...maybe next time...

I made this card for a pretty little, teeny-tiny girl, all the way in the Netherlands.

Poking around...

....spent a small bit of time tonight poking at the "stash". As I told a friend, I believe I've become an embellishment hoarder. Some are so pretty- how can I bear to use it on a project (i.e. card) and then give it away? lol. Such is life...

The Beginning....

....so here I am at my attempt of a blog. I hope to share a bit of my creations with paper crafting. We'll see where we end up....
