Cutting FLANNEL with my Cuttlebug!

I have made TONS of Cut & Tie Flannel Blankets and I have lots of squares left over from cutting the corners of each one out.
Cool eh?

 I tried using my Sizzix Originals Die's to cut out shapes. I figured I could use them in card making or scrap booking some how. :)

 I'm just wondering what kind of glue would be best. Anyone know?

They all cut great. Next I'm going to try felt. :)

New card: Looks like a little kid did it. LOL!

It's hard to see but their are snow/winter words embossed on the blue.
I had fun and that is what counts.

My entry for the JustRite Friday Challenge! (3 photos)

Here is my entry for the JustRite Friday Challenge 

049 - Technique: Direct to Rubber


CLICK TO ENLARGE

 For this challenge I used one of the JustRite Stamp JB-09710 Beautiful Blossoms Borders & Centers!

I stamped the outside oval in Memento Tuxedo Black ink and the flower with Memento Cottage Ivy ink.

I love using Copic Markers but this image was so beautiful I didn't want to touch it.
I cut the stamped image with the largest Spellbinders Die in the Dahlia set. I inked the outside with the Memento Cottage Ivy ink.
I then added a strip of yellow ribbon down each side and a square of striped card stock behind it and put squares in each corner. I then added the smile face and the 'thinking of you.


Thanks for looking,
Susie

Did 5th and 6th scrapbook pages!

I've decided being 55 years old I just don't want to have the bother of DOING all the photos I have. It would take me a million years.
I'm going to do a 3 albums. They will be MONTHLY, CHRISTMAS, and WEDDING.
The monthly one will have what happened in the month and some crafts I did. The Christmas I'm going to do every year and try to do a few past ones and the wedding will be ours first (we don't have many photos) and highlights of our youngest son that got married 7 years ago and our oldest son that has been married 3 years.

 Here is the outside cover. My husband and I back in 1973. 

 I looked like a scared little rabbit. LOL. I was a week over 18.

My wedding was shared with my twin sister. :o)
COOL eh?

New nails: Wet 'N' Wild "Blaze and Konading. :)

This Wet 'N' Wild "Blaze nail polish was a gift for Christmas from my son Ron, daughter in law Erica and grandson Drew.

This is called "Blaze" and it was two coats.
Pretty eh?
My skin is SO very dry and my nails split so much I can't grow them out. 

I did the Konading with Konad Plate M57 and the Konad White Polish.
Cool eh?
Susie
Took this one early this morning after my workout. :) LOL!
See? You can wear nail polish and WORKOUT. :)

I just made Valentine cards for my grandsons!

 This is for my almost 20 month old grandson Mason. 
I colored the image with my Copic Markers. :)

 See the little Kitty Cat and Mouse on the envelope?

 This was so much fun to make. :)

 This one is for my 8 year old grandson Drew. 
I also colored the image here with my Copic Markers. I didn't have
the right blue shade though to make the cupcake wrapper look right. :)

 See the little smiling Kitty on the envelope?

I so enjoyed making this one to.
Happy Valentines Day early everyone,
Susie
