I'm Back!!

Wow! I can't believe that it has been so long since I last posted. I meant to post the after video of my scraproom a week later, but...

I lost all motivation to do anything crafty related. I don't know where I lost it, but it couldn't be found until only a few days ago. :) I have depression along with a few health issues and when one of these health issues act up then the depression kicks in big time. And when my depression kicks in then all motivation goes bye-bye. What has helped the most is I have started selling my cards at a local shop. And now with the holidays coming I need to get some of my card sets into the store for sale. This has helped somewhat with getting my motivation going in the right direction. I have a few ideas that I can't wait to get going on and should start as early as tomorrow. I have been working on Thanksgiving cards that are almost done. I'm waiting on some clear bags and boxes that I ordered online to get here so I can place them in the store.

Well, that is enough for now. I really needed to get this out so that I can get going on one of the few things that make me happy...crafting! I will have some new pics up tomorrow/Saturday. Thanks for reading this. :)

Scraproom Before Tour Video

Here is a video of my scraproom that I posted on YouTube. It's just a before tour of the room before I started doing some cleaning. I have been working all week on it and will have an After Tour of my scraproom sometime at the beginning of next week. Enjoy and please leave me comments about what you think. Thanks!

More Layouts


Here are 2 more layouts I have completed the last couple days. Suprisingly I didn't use any Cricut cuts on them. Hmmm I must be losing it. Lol. The top is of my Savannah cat Keyka and the bottom is of me and my friend's newborn baby girl Brittany.

Please enjoy my submission and have a great day.

Christmas in July card

Alright I know it has been almost a month with no posting what so ever. Shame on me! Lol. I have been so unmotivated to do any scrapping. I think the motivation bug needs to come and bite me in the butt! I have made a couple cards but nothing else. I need to do some serious scrapping here. Maybe I will work on a lo.
Well, here is my newest card. I made it for My Craft Spot's Christmas in July post. I cut Hello Kitty at 5" with the card being 4 1/4 x 5 1/2. Here are the details:

  • Cricut cart: Hello Kitty Greetings
  • Paper: Bazzill
  • Ribbon: Really Reasonable Ribbon
  • Thread: Coats & Clark
  • Sewing machine: Janome
  • Adhesive: ATG, Zig 2 way glue pen
Well, enjoy the card and I hope to be back on here real soon. A lot sooner! Lol.

Pineapple card

I can't believe it has been a bit since my last post. I don't like going that long but motivation has been real slow coming to me. I often need a kick start to get going. When your days are filled with nothing but scrapping or anything else I want to do, it gets kind of boring after a while (I'm disabled so I don't work). My Craft Spot is having a challenge to create an item with bright summer colors. Also Fantabulous Cricut is having a challenge to create an item too with a BBQ or picnic food. My creation included both. Here are the details:


  • Cricut cart: Life Is A Beach
  • Cardstock: Bazzill
  • Pattern paper: Kaiser Craft
  • Ink: Cat's Eye-Dark Brown
  • Adhesive: ATG, Zig 2 way glue
Enjoy and thanks for looking!:)
