Anthony & I are 100% well, Baby Aaron is toward the end of his flu & now my hubby just started!!! I think it's safe to say that Angel & Scrappy (my furry babies) are going to be just fine!;) Well, I couldn't go on w/this day w/o at least posting something! Of course I haven't been able to make anything much this year for Valentine's day, but I'd thought I would show you a couple of cute item's I've made in the past "A Blast From the Past"! Okay, this 1st picture is a little treat purse I had made & wrapped chocolate nuggets to go on the inside! I don't have a link to a video of this because I made this BEFORE I started to make videos! This is one of my FAVORITE Valentine projects!

This next one is a simple one that I just wrapped some pattern paper around a box of sweethearts candy! SUPER SIMPLE for my son's classroom a few years back!

Here are a set of 6 3x3 cards I had made for the teachers also, a few years back!

I hope you enjoyed my "Blast from the Past" Valentine projects! Now, on to my winner from my "Stamptastic Blog Hop"! Random.org chose the lucky winner of the copy of this 'Exclusive" Cricut Magazine....... Drum Roll Please..........................

My Scrapbook Class & WINNER!!!!

Hello My Creative Time Friends! I hope everybody had a GREAT Saturday! Well, I sure had a FUN day! This morning I had my "Bi-Monthly" scrapbook class & we had a BLAST! This was our "3" year Anniversary of me having these classes~! I usually have coffee & donuts for my classes BUT being that this was a "Special" day, it's tradition that on our anniversary I make my ladies breakfast! I made us homemade blueberry pancakes & to celebrate we enjoyed Mimosas all around!! My ladies were so sweet, they surprised me w/gift cards to one of my FAVORITE stores "Joann's"!! THANK YOU LADIES!! LOVE YOU ALL!;) After, I had to take a nap since I landed up going to bed after 3am:(  I'm not sure about all of you, but I always seem to have my "Creative" ideas in the middle of the night! lol...... To top off our day, my hubby, my boys & I  spent the rest of the day w/my parents & we took them Pizza & had a FUN time! Enough about my day, I wanted to share pictures of what we made for my class today! Of course, it was a Halloween theme, hehehehehe~ are you surprised?? lol..... Now for the 1st project:

We created this CUTSIE Bookmark OR it could be used as a Gift tag! The tag is from Tags, Bags, Boxes, & More Cartridge, Ghost & fence are from the Paperdoll Dress Up Cartridge (My Favorite) Ribbon is from Stampin up & my FAVORITE twine is from Papertrey Inc. The Face stamp is "Cutie Pie Face Asst." from Peachy Keen Stamps & the pattern paper is from DCWV "Midnight Spell stack".

The Next one is a "Monster" 12x12 layout! The black window background is from "October 31st" cartridge. I used my gypsy to make the windows @ the bottom big enough to fit pictures. All the monsters & the phrase is from "Mini Monsters" cartridge! I just LOVE these ADORABLE monsters ESPECIALLY w/the face stamps used: "Make a Monster Face" and "Monster Mash Faces" from Peachy Keen Stamps!

This next one, you actually seen already! I just CAN'T get enough of this ADORABLE ghost from "Paper Doll Dress Up" Pattern paper is from DCWV "The Midnight Spell" and that CUTE face is from the set called: "Simple Sallies Face Asst" from PKS and the "BOO" stamp is from My Pink Stamper's new set called "Spooky Puns"!

This next one is a 12x12 layout also using "Mini Monsters" cartridge! I just left it plain so my class can choose how they want to layout their pictures! Pattern Paper is from a K& Company 12x12 Halloween Paper stack & the face stamp is from Peachy Keen stamps, "Cutie Pie Face Asst." package! This concludes all the projects we had FUN making today!

For fun, I wanted to post a couple of pics of a few projects my ladies made! BUT, one of my guest's "Apryl" is the BEST @ doodling! She ALWAYS kicks up her projects a bit more! She is SOOO CUTE! Look how she drew outfits on these CUTE ghosts! Don't you just LOVE THEM!!;)

I had asked Apryl to draw on my ghost for me too! Here is what she came up w/for mine! Isn't he the BEST dressed ghost you've EVER SEEN!!!  GREAT JOB APRYL!  The stamp is from My Pink Stamper's new set called "Spooky Puns"! The paper is ALSO from DCWV "Midnight Spell stack"!

NOW, onto the Winner of this ADORABLE "Dress Me Ghost" set is:

Winner of Crikit Pens & another Pen Tutorial - Episode~82

Hello My Creative Friends! I hope everybody had a GREAT weekend! I've had several questions on what else can be done w/these AMAZING pens! Well, I decided to show you in my video just how you can ALSO make your own background paper w/them! For my CUTE ghosts, I cut them out using my Mini Monsters cart AND the background was ALSO drawn w/the same cart! I used 3 different face stamps for my ghosts and they were:

"Monster Mash Face Asst.",  "Make a Monster Face Asst." and "Pumpkin Faces"!

ALSO, if you were one of the many people who tried to order these pens last week, the "ADDITON" coupon code was not working properly! So I recieved an email from Crikits.com letting me know for You to use the link below and that will take you to a page where you can add the free pens to your cart! Then you can click on the "products" link and add whatever other pen sets you want into your cart. They will not send any orders that only contain the free pens. Here is the link:   http://www.asecurecart.net/server/orderform.aspx/cri-kits?ID=additon

I hope you enjoy my video & CONGRATS to the winner!;)

I FIXED my page!! LOL...... I had it say "Trick or Trick" at first until my friend Julie let me know! lol......

See you back here tomorrow for the BEST PEACHY KEEN BLOG HOP EVER!;) Have a GREAT night everyone!;)
