Hello there.  First and foremost I need to apologize to any customers who were directed by me in my newsletter 2 days ago to shop for the Fast Fuse special.  I am really sorry that many of you were not able to get in on the special.  The Stampin’ Up! warehouse sold out in 8 hours.  I did not anticipate this as they had assured us Demonstrators that they would have enough product to go around.  It makes me feel really sorry that I encouraged you to get shopping and then it was a bum deal.  Honestly, I don’t know what happened.  I want to apologize to you all on behalf of Stampin’ Up!  It sucks.

Moving on from FuseGate, I have a really cute project for your Valentine needs.  Check out this super cute creation.

Hello there.  I have a little “functional” project for you today.  I know we all have been experimenting with the Brusho Crystal Colour powders and if you are like most of us, we have put push pins in the top of our Brusho pots.  Now the wee pots don’t fit nicely back into the box they came and because of that our crafty space looks unsightly with little pots everywhere.  Let’s make a box together to keep those Brusho’s all safe shall we?  That’s the project for today and I hope yours turns out as super cool as mine did.  Check it out.

Hello and welcome to today’s project.  I have a few really cute projects for you today and it’s not my usual style.  These are really specific projects to make for those people in your life that you want to share a crafty gift but not break the bank doing it.  I have 3 projects that I am sharing, and these are the treats that I am sharing with the girls at my post office who gather my mail and accept the big brown boxes from UPS for me…they deserve a treat.  I also have a few colouring teenagers that would appreciate a crafty gift that keeps on giving.  I also like having a few gifts handy just in case a need arises.

So here are the pictures to the projects I am sharing today.

Hello there my friends.  I was watching some videos a while back and came across this build from the lovely and talented Linda Parker (Papercraft with Crafty) and thought I would share a spin on it.  She used card stock in her version but I wanted to use my beautiful designer series paper to build it.  Hope you like the version I share.

Hello all.  I hope you are doing well.  As you may have heard I am a bit displaced at the moment.  I live in a basement suite and the shared laundry equipment (meaning the washer) decided to overflow into my apartment.  So, needless to say, I had to relocate while they dry the place up and replace the floors and carpets.  Before you ask, I am ok, the kitties are ok and nothing was damaged other than my apartment floors.  I have moved Molly and Quinn to a friend’s home who is quiet and loves pets but I myself have relocated to my sister’s house while she and her family are on vacation.  I was scheduled to look after her kitties anyway so it works out ok.  I miss my kitties but I go to see them every day and spend time (I have been editing my videos there and trying to let them know things are kinda the same only different).  They haven’t adjusted as well as I had hoped but they are getting better every day.  I wish they would eat a little more, they kinda have been off their food for a bit but they do eat the treats we give them so…they aren’t suffering too bad.  Kids and their junk food eh?  My sister has ample room for me to set up a make shift craft space so I will still be able to continue to product content for the blog here.  Would love if I had some shoppers to make it all worth while.  🙂  New Catalog is launched today!  You can shop 24/7 in the online store.

Anyway, just a bit of an update and while I am feeling a little sad with them not being around me I thought I would grab a tissue.  Hmmm, wonder if I can make a little box to hold my tissues to cheer me up!  Great segway there don’t you think?

Check out my project for today and I will show you how to do it.

So let me tell you a story.  I have a wonderful friend named Lee.  She is very helpful and she is very kind.  One day she came into get her hair done and was so proud to give me a box.  It was really unusual but looked amazing and she said it was from a Chocolate shoppe in Las Vegas.  I was totally impressed and was excited to open it and receive a Las Vegas Chocolate.  Alas, there was no chocolate…none.  She had eaten it but saved me a box so I can remake it for you.  I shall now console you for not having a chocolate as well.  I hope your disappointment will fade as mine did when I discovered how really cool this build is.  PS Lee, if you are reading this.  Please don’t bring a chubby girl a chocolate box without a chocolate…this diet is killing me.

On with the show…
