Happy Wednesday !

So today I will be sharing a little bit of everything. News, cards from past classes, and see where I go from here.

News: Well, some of you already follow me on FB and might have seen that I am going back to work... That's right, I was offered a front end position at Costco! I have been self employed for the last 2 and a half years and loved it... but I miss having a 'steady income', having co-workers, pension plans, lol! And now that we have a plan and support in place for the kid, I feel that I can go back to work (Part time for now) and see how things go.

I am still keeping my bookkeeping business going (cause I love it), just not growing it and will only keep a few customers.

I have only heard good things about Costco.  I am nervous and excited at the same time.  Tomorrow is Orientation for me :)  Wish me luck!

So with that being said, I will be posting ONCE a week for the next little while but will try to share more than one project every time ;)

First PROJECT, totally copied from Pinterest (My go to for the last couple of months!)
This was such a fun card to do and I really enjoy how all these colours come so well together.

This next one is one of the most EASY card to do!!!! Just pick you sentiment, a Piece of DSP, adhesive and you are off to one amazingly simple great looking card! To step it up, you could use ribbon instead of a paper bow, add jewels such as Rhinestones or pearls and if you feel like it... Embossing (dry or heat!) ... Sky is the limit!

Yesterday's class was so fun! I loved it and even though I ended up with lots of ink on my fingers, the cards were lovely! But you'll get to see those next month :)

The designer paper is retired but I need to stop hoarding beautiful things and use them, lol!

So Sorry... to see these sets go ;)

I saw a card a loooong time ago that made the flowers 'pop up' and I just knew I had to give it a try with this set :) Although it is fairly clean and simple, took a bit of time to stamp, colour, cut, colour some more, sponge it, glue dot it and finally leave it alone, lol! Hope you like it :)

Happy Monday! Or should I say Yay for March Break...

Even though I don't get any time off, I am happy because I don't have to supervise my son doing homework and that means; no arguing this week, Woohoo!!!!
Ok, so I was able to quickly go downstairs this past week end and did one heck of a clean up ;) So I discovered lots of unfinished  (no to say unopened) projects and crafted away... cleaning got put on hold, once again, lol!!!
THis is one of the cards from last month's class and I had extra pieces left over... made a quick video to inspire you:)

And the video...

I need your feedback...

So I made another video last week (while my family was visiting) and tried to re-record words that would make sense ... I finally gave up and decided to try something new... that's where you come in.  I decided to use music AND insert the name of the products as I am showing them before I start assembling the card... LMK what you think and I'll go from there :)  It takes a bit more time to do but it is a lot less stressful, lol!!!
