Upcoming Blog Candy and Video Launch

Category: Close To My Heart | Permalink

Published: Friday, January 29, 2010

Hi there.... I've been working away at preparing, writing, filming and editing my Clearly the Best My Acrylix Clear Stamp video for a few days now. Close To My Heart is having a contest and I couldn't pass up the chance of winning! With limited time it takes me a while. I can't wait to share it all with you. Lets just say it is HILARIOUS!!! Filming a video that is only 3 minutes shouldn't take a few hours but it sure did for us. We were cracking up nearly every take so editing this has been quite the challenge!

My brother comes up with some great ideas so when I heard about the contest I asked him to help me brain storm. He came up with a brilliant idea!!! I quickly got to writing the script and even purchasing a domain name to share the video. Once you see it you'll understand why. I was so thrilled with the idea so we ran with it. Considering I am nearly 7 months pregnant and knew I would get extremely winded if I had to talk throughout... I coached my brother on our amazing product (My Acrylix) and convinced him to star in my video along with a few other guests and myself.

To kick off the launch of my video I will be giving away some fabulous blog candy. Be sure and check back in a few days to get a good laugh and have a chance at winning the blog candy!!!! Oh and to top it off I'm currently having my blog redesigned. I figured since it's been a year you all would love a fresh new look, right? =) Can't wait for you all to watch my video and check out my new blog.

Double Card Challenge with CTMH Perfect Day

Category: My Crafty Projects | Permalink

Published: Monday, January 25, 2010

Tonight I decided to use one of my favorite paper packs from Close To My Heart. It is the Perfect Day Level 2 pack. LOVE IT! We'll I love a ton of them but this is definitely one of my top favs. I decided to make this card qualify for both the Mojo Monday 123 Card Challenge as well as Practical Scrappers. I've never participated in the Practical Scrappers but my good friend Jayma applied and was just welcomed to the design team. I'm so excited for her! I decided to give their challenge a try this week since I was feeling super crafty. If you're a regular visitor to my blog you'll already know this but since I'm close to 7 months pregnant now these late night crafting days have been few and far between. Tonight I managed to watch the bachelor, create a card and now I'm still up blogging about it. Wahoooo.. go me! =)

For this card I followed the Mojo Monday sketch and made sure that I used at least 2 pieces of patterned paper to also qualify for the Practical Scrappers Challenge. Ohhhh check it out.. I even brought out my paper crimper and distressing tools. I hope you enjoy my card I had a lot of fun making it.
