My Recorded Ustream AND a project~!

Happy FRIDAY my Creative Friends!! WOW, what an EXCITED FUN FILLED week I've had! I'm looking forward to my weekend to just relax & celebrate my son Anthony's "Real" birthday on Saturday! lol.... Yeah between my two boys, we've been celebrating both of their birthdays for 2 months straight now!;) They deserve, I have GREAT little men! Now, here is the link for my recorded version of my 1st Ustream I had on Wednesday night! So if you missed it, I hope you enjoy it!;) I also announced my 2nd DVD called "Gypsy Magic & More!"  The reason why I chose that title is because I wanted it to be for EVERYBODY & NOT just Gypsy users! There are a few "Non-Cricut" projects, a few "Cricut" projects AND a few "Gypsy" projects! I do also show you how to create the projects I made in my Gypsy

without it also! I hope that makes sense! lol..... Now "MY" Favorite part of this DVD, is that I came up w/10 different digital "FREE" Downloadable sentiments to go w/each project featured in my DVD!! YEP, FREE DIGITAL HOLIDAY SENTIMENTS!!! HOW EXCITED is that??  They are ADORABLE! I used 7 out of the 10 sentiments in my projects, so you have 3 extra "Bonus" sentiments to work with! For my project below was one of the sentiments that I did NOT make a project for in my DVD! I just wanted to make something on my Livestream for you using one of them so you can get an idea for a gift AND to see what they look like! These sentiments print out @ 4 inches and you can ONLY shrink them to be "Smaller" and NOT bigger! So you can resize them w/any of your punches & they look AWESOME! For my project below, I used the "Have a Berry Merry Christmas" & used my punch from EK Success to punch it out! I resized the sentiment to be 2.25 inches wide & it fit the punch PERFECTLY! I thought that this would be a CUTE & SUPER SIMPLE gift to give someone for the holidays!

Leave me a comment & let me know what you think!;)

For my jelly jar, I used my brand new "Double Loop" Martha Stewart punch for my band around the jelly jar! The pattern paper is from "My Mind's Eye" called "I Believe", Button & candy cane twine is from Papertrey Ink, Raffia is from local craft store! AND that BEAUTIFUL digital sentiment is from my latest DVD! I used a "Ticket" punch from EK Sucess to punch it out! A CUTE & easy gift for anyone in your life who LOVES jelly or jams!;)

My DVD is available HERE for pre-order right now & is expected to ship out in 2 weeks on the 29th! Thank you SOOO much for stopping by & enjoy your Friday my sweet friends!;)
