To pocket cam or not to pocket cam??

Hello everyone, I hope your doing well tonight! I don't have a craft post tonight :( Instead, I have a question for all of you. I have been debating on whether or not to start making video tutorials of some of my crafts. What do you think? If I do decide to give it a try, I am going to have to look into purchasing a pocket cam and was wondering if anyone had any suggestions as to what I should get/look into? I am on a fairly tight budget but am open to any suggestions or if anyone is selling one, please let me know! I would really really appreciate it! I hope you all have a wonderful night!

I'm back!!

Hello everyone, I am so sorry that I have been absent for so long, life has certainly had its ups and downs lately. But good news...I'M BACK!! Some announcements to be made is that 1) I'm ENGAGED!! I am so happy! My fiance asked me to marry him on August 5th which was our 3 year anniversary. The wedding is planned for Oct. 12, 2012. I can't believe that in a little less than a year I will be marrying my best friend! I am so lucky and blessed to have him in my life and I love him with all my heart!! (Speaking of planning for a wedding, no surprise I will be making my own wedding invitations and other things for my wedding, so I will make sure to post pictures!) 2) I have opened an ETSY shop, so please please go visit my shop and like it on Facebook! Right now there isn't much in my shop, but should be growing in the near future!
I think that should do it for now. I also just wanted to say thank you to the followers that I currently have for hanging in there with me during this stretch of time off and I would also like to invite people to become followers if you aren't already. Not only did I create a blog to share my handmade creations, but I also created it to meet new people and gain new friendships, so please become a follower and introduce yourself, I look forward to meeting you!! :)

Birthday cards for a man!

So this was the original card I made to give to my dad for his birthday, however I bought the new Cuttlebug today and I was so excited to use it that I had to make a new card for my dad!! What do you think?

My dad's original birthday card

The cuttlebug-ed birthday card

For the metal looking diamond plating I actually just used aluminum foil that was folded up several time so that  it would hold its embossing a bit better. for the label I used the playtime cartridge and the black lines is black twine. I think it came out pretty good! I hope he will like it :)

My Dad's Birthday Gift!

Hey everyone, I know I have posted quite a bit today, but I just wanted to share with you something that I just finished making for my dad's birthday that is on Thursday (yep a St. Patty's baby!) Well here it is...

Isn't it absolutely ADORABLE???!!!

These are little cookies I made to give as gifts to guests at his birthday dinner.

I absolutely love, love, love these little cookies and I can't wait to see the look on his face when I bring them to dinner on Thursday!!

**I'm also considering selling these as well, what do you think?

Fabric "magic wallets"

Hey everybody, just wanted to take a minute to share with you my fabric "magic wallets". This isn't the first time I have made these, but these are just a couple I made the other day. These make great birthday, Christmas or anytime gifts. They really are fun and will leave you wondering just how they work. I love watching people try to figure out how they are made or how they work.

**On a side note, I have decided to sell some of my homemade products, including these adorable "magic wallets", and to celebrate this new business venture I'm considering doing a giveaway of one of these cute little wallets, but I would like to see if anyone would be interested in winning one? So leave me a comment, and please please please become a follower!! :)
