I just finished uploading a new video. I went to Scrapyland and bought the Zutter Disrezz-it-All and DreamKuts. I am SOOOOOOOOO excited!! I have been wanting these for a while. The Distrezz-it-All is going to make distressing sooooo much faster and cleaner. I can't wait use it. The DreamKuts is going to come in handy for the cards I am going to make so I can sell.
The video also talks about Sizzix's customer service. Although they are not able to replace or repair my Onesie die, they gave me another die free of charge. I can still use the Onesie die without the preforation on the sleeve so it isn't that bad.
I am FINALLY able to upload a vid with music that does not get tagged for copyright infringement!! I made the card a while ago for a friend's birthday. I recorded myself coloring the card because the card came out sooooooo stinking cute. Once I tried to add music (so you wouldn't be bored) YT flagged it as a copyright. I went online to a royalty free site (suggested by a scrappy friend) but I still got tagged. I finally decided to try out Garage Band on my Mac. I have never been able to play with that program and get something out of it but today was the exception!! It is not a composition by Bach but it is quite relaxing.
My hubby has turned 40!!! :( The poor thing kept asking what I was going to do special for his birthday. I kept telling him that I wasn't going to do anything since it was only my family and his 1 friend that was coming down from CT. I told him that I was going to cut him a cake on Monday for his birthday and take him out to a nice restaurant as his present...Ruth Chris's or something like that. He wasn't really happy with my suggestion. He thought that since it was his 40th birthday, I should do something a little more elaborate. Little did he know that I already had everything planned.
First thing I did was make the invitations. My hubby LOVES to play poker so I decided on a poker theme. That was easy enough until it came to the invitations. I wasn't sure what to do until I remembered that I had the Tim Holtz Texture Fades Poker Face. I got them out and immediately knew what to do. Here is the video that I made explaining the process.
I think they came out adorable. The one thing that I wish was the the embossing folders were bigger. They are "card sized" but I wanted them to be more "invitation size". Any who, they were cute.
I also went all out decorating the house for the occasion. It REALLY came out BEAUTIFUL!! Here are a few pictures.
We had a blast and he was TOTALLY surprised. Thanks to everyone that came in and helped :)
Yup, that's right!! Someone ordered another card from me. They needed a baby shower for one of their co-workers and remembered to give me a call. I asked a couple of questions and this is what I cam up with.
I used the Build-A-Onesie Girl stamps from The Greeting Farm. I LOVE TGF stamps!! They are sooo adorable. It was really fun to choose which design to put on the onesie. Then I fussy cute them out and added pop dots. I think it came it AdorABle!!
