New Cricut Cart - Once Upon A Princess

This is a brand new release cart from Provo Craft. It is called Once Upon A Princess. This picture has been very hard to find because it isn't released yet.

This has got to be the cutest cart ever. I only have boys but the little girl in me knows I will be buying this for sure. It is adorable and I can't wait to get my hands on it.

I hope they come up with a boy cart just like this. That would be fantastic.

Do you have a product you would like me to review?

Hello,


I love to review products on my blog. If you are interested in sending me an item to review, then please send me an email at scrapbookingdreams@nc.rr.com



Thank you,

Shannon

Video #21 Beaded Id Badge Lanyard

I love to make jewelry as well as scrapbook. I figured since I was making some lanyards as a gift I might as well make a video too. These are so much fun to make. This video showed me making my first. I couldn't stop at just one. :-) I ended up making 3 tonight. I hope you enjoy the video.

Video #20 Am I Addicted?

Hi guys.... no I didn't forget video #19. That will be posted on my blog soon.

For now I wanted to put a fun video that shows my paper addiction. What do you think? Do I have a problem. If I do, it's a problem I don't want help with :-)

Enjoy!

This is fun and quick technique idea. You can make any color ribbon that you have an inkpad for. All I used was the inexpensive white ribbon from Michaels. This ribbon is from the spools that they put on sale for 3/$1.00 and sometimes you can even find them for 4/$1.00. I hope you enjoy.

Just a quick video for today though.

See ya soon,

Video #13 Making Your Own Skittles Embellishments

I wanted to try out this project for awhile now. This video is showing how you can make your own Skittles embellishments using hot glue.

I said in my video that I would let you know how they turned out.... I can report that they turned out great. This is a must try technique. They dry really well and the little glue strings that you saw in the video come right off once they are dry. Let me know how you like them if you try to make them yourself.

Video #12 Using Skittles or Dew Drops

A few people asked me how to use these so I made this video to show how I like to use Skittles on my projects. Enjoy!!
