Please bear with me while I get this blogging stuff straight.  Trying to figure out how to add a follow me button and blogs I follow button...any help out there?

A few things I have recently made.  A simple friendship card is on top.  And the middle photo is a framed Shadow Box with a French Theme.  I am moving on to altering dominoes   Bought glass Dominoes from Ocean Side Crafts on Etsy and used Alcohol ink to color them blue with silver accents. Inside I pasted Brazen Broads pictures from Jewelry Foolery, a store on Etsy.
Wishing all a pleasant Sunday!

Just completed another swap on the Cricut Message Board, and although they are fun, I tend to over think them. I will post pictures of what I made when I learn how to :-).
The dog is happily snoring and the husband just got up for work.  Ugh...it is 3:00 AM.  I just started using alcohol inks and am enjoying them, although they are messy and should not be used, by me anyway, without gloves.  One of the swaps I am doing, an altered spool swap has me a bit puzzled actually. I have searched Pinterest, You Tube and any other tutorials I can find. Hope you all have a great weekend.

My first post!

This is my first time blogging anything, so please bear with me.  I am attempting to force myself to craft more and think if I post about it, it will force me to create. I am a crocheter, a beginner knitter, and avid paper crafter. I use a Cricut E 2, Expression, and mini.  I also use a Silhouette Cameo.  I am beginning to stamp a little bit and am now getting in to Magnolia Tilda Stamps.  During this journey I will share my crafting triumphs and mistakes, so that I can learn from them.  All criticism is gratefully accepted and I will respect your opinions.
