My Hobby Room

It is finally finished...well accept for the organizing and a couple of hooks...but close enough.  Mark and I worked on shelves all day today, but now I have 3 16"x68" shelves and 3 8"x38" shelves that tie together in the corner.  Oh, I forgot to mention, this is just the closet.  The rest of the room has been done for some time, but I was just kind of stacking my paper (and a few other things).

I also have room under the shelves for additional storage...and it's all purple...cause, well, I love me some purple.  I'm hoping to get everything organized tomorrow night and then once our user conference is over at work, my plan is to come home every night and make cards for a couple of hours. 


Chances are no one will see this, but if you do...thanks for stopping by.  I will post pictures once everything's nice and neat and put away...you know, the moment right before it's a huge mess again. :)

Criss Cross Card

I created my first .scut2 file today.  It's a criss cross card.  I created it using the shapes library in SCAL from the directions by Beate Johns at http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/resources/tutorials/criss_cross_card

Instead of the 1.5 x 12 inch band I used ribbon, so you would have to cut it separately. 

I'll attach a file in SCALHints in case anyone is interested.  Thanks for looking!

Have a blessed week!

Finally another post

I got the file to cut these from PennyDuncanCreations.com.  Her creations are awesome!  Now, let's see if I can figure out how to attach my pictures. :)  My husband has a big family (4 bros and 1 sis) and we get together almost monthly for a birthday celebration for anyone in the family who has a birthday that month.  We tied it in with Mother's Day this month.  I made a hat box from Penny's svg file for each of the girls and filled them all with Ferrero Rocher chocolates (yum...but I forgot to keep a couple of chocolates for me).

My first blog

So...I have been a little interested in scrapbooking for a few years, but in December my first grandson was born so now I have hundreds of pictures to start scrapbooking with and only more as he gets older. You'll see lots and lots of pictures of him here...and on Facebook...and on Picasa...and on my computers...and on my phone, well you get the idea. I bought a used Cricut (the small one) the first of the year and have been using SCAL (Sure Cuts a Lot) primarily as I don't really have the finances to invest in cartridges, and honestly prefer to be able to have a little more flexibility than the cartridges provide.

We are empty nesters, so we are in the process of turning our son's old bedroom, which has most recently been an office, into a dedicated crafting room. I am using My Pink Stamper's Pink Loft as my inspiration, though I don't have near as much cool stuff as she does yet (yet, being the operative word).
