Sad News.....

Well, I have had a few days to deal with it & we are still very sad...My daughter had a miscarriage over the weekend. What she found out is she is Rh-negative in her blood type & that is what caused it. She was given a shot that will correct that now & they are going to try again soon....so please keep her in your prayers! I know God knows best & that it will all work out for the best in the end. Thanks for stopping by.

FREEBIES #2

Just had to add a couple more for ya! Just follow the directions from my last post below! Hope you enjoy them!



FREEBIE from Me!


After talking with my good friend, Lori, at By Lori Designs, I thought I'd jump on the digital bandwagon & offer up some FREE digital phrases! She is starting her own digital stamp company (go see her FREEBIE---it's adorable!!) & since I love doing personalization with my candy bar wrappers she suggested I do some digital words & phrases! SO.... here's a cute, popular phrase you might be able to use & I made them up in several font designs for added flexibility in your card & page designs! Hope you like them! I am thinking of offering them for sale at a SUPER low price later on, so let me know what you think! Just right click on the image & save to your computer, print, cut out & craft away! I have them in 300 dpi so they should print up nice & clear! Thanks for stopping by!

This year is flying by!

Is it just me or does it seem this year is flying by?? It's so hard to believe it's Sept. already! I love Fall, it's my favorite time of year, but it came around again super fast! We had a really mild summer...very few really hot days...and lots of rain, which should make for a gorgeous fall! For we crafters, Christmas is upon us!! LOL Time to be planning all the Christmas crafts. Just thought I'd post my observation on time....more later! Thanks for stopping by....

2 Adorable Wrappers to share!


As you know, I love to design candy bar wrappers using clipart from my favorite artists, but I also love it when I find them already designed...all I do is add the text!! These are from my friend, Trina Clark, at www.digiscrapkits.com! I absolutely LOVE her work! I actually got to meet her once at a craft show & she placed an order from me! She & her hubby were so fun to talk with! Anyway...just thought I'd give you some more ideas on just how many ways you can use candy wrappers in your everyday life! I've said it before & I'll say it again...not many people are gonna turn down a candy bar, especially when it's personalized just for them! They are a fun, inexpensive way to say....anything! Thanks for stoppin' by!

A Fun Pool Party Wrapper!

Who wouldn't love being invited to a pool party? And it's even more inviting when it's wrapped around chocolate! LOL I made this cute "invitation" wrapper using Laurie Furnell's "Penguins in Paradise set which can be seen HERE! As I have said many times...she is my favorite artist at PCCrafter.com! I think it's a great idea to give out your invitations on a candy bar! They can eat the candy & tape the wrapper to the fridge for a great little reminder! Thanks for stopping by...more later!

A party favor wrapper!


I love to design candy bar wrappers & this is the first one so far for me this year! I missed it! This is for a regular size Hershey's bar & is perfect for handing out at parties for a favor, don't you think?? I really love how easy & fun they are to personalize, right down to color choices & names! It's all about detail, after all! ;0) I love Laurie Furnell & used her Monkeyin' Around set to design this...you can see that set HERE! The background I used was from another favorite artist, Shelly Comiskey! See her adorable Little Buddies set HERE! Both are artists at www.pccrafter.com. A favorite hangout for me! More wrappers to come...Thanks for stoppin' by!
