I recently went to a Clam Festival and they had all different kinds of arts and craft booths too. I came across a Scrapbooking booth and the lady had all these stickers for sale. I starting looking through the huge pile and my pile in my hand was getting pretty big, so I asked her how much it would cost for the entire table. She was selling them 2 for $1, so that alone was a great deal. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">She ended up selling me them all for only $90.00!!!! When I got home we sorted and counted them all and there was a total of 765 stickers in all. That's only $.08 a piece for Jolees, Recollections, heidi grace, Soft Spoken, Martha Stewart, American Girls, DCWV and many more. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

It was my first attempt using my xyron sticker maker to adhere flock. If you look really close you can see the brown flock that I used on the deer, I really like how they turned out it gives the card some great texture.Sallyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15452590698363217624noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8830779828768242105.post-3523610440638128622011-01-11T22:09:00.000-08:002011-01-11T22:09:12.749-08:00Create a Critter "So Dear Card"<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgM7T-aZF5tHX3VO-ITL_tLV9QmygRsKdmAZnn3WyCbGbogXyeWTYIkneRiXOVEKi7WR-i5E5gEZXtZ1NGrW0d0LR3ZVxX9ZO2NBkdhoQOz1GNhd6EnFpJCDo-yAU7q1X4x_9hTsihxUQPu/s1600/So+Dear.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" n4="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgM7T-aZF5tHX3VO-ITL_tLV9QmygRsKdmAZnn3WyCbGbogXyeWTYIkneRiXOVEKi7WR-i5E5gEZXtZ1NGrW0d0LR3ZVxX9ZO2NBkdhoQOz1GNhd6EnFpJCDo-yAU7q1X4x_9hTsihxUQPu/s320/So+Dear.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">These little deer have so much personality in their little faces.

She loves to Garden so I cut out garden tools from the Walk in my Garden Cricut cartridge. Her birthday's in October so I chose to use fall type colors.<br />
<br />
Supplies:<br />
White pre-made card base<br />
Garden tools cut using Walk in my garden Cricut cartridge<br />
Circles were cut using Create a Critter Cricut cartridge and they were just cut out with craft cardstock (dark brick red and dark olive green)<br />
Light pink textured cardstock DCWV<br />
Brown textured card stock from DCWV "Latte" Then I ran it through my Cuttlebug Swiss Dots embossing folder<br />
Polka Dot ribbon "American Crafts" from Michaels<br />
Some random buttons (cream, brick red and orange)<br />
"Best Wishes" sticker was from a sheet of stickers I received in the mail with some scrapbook kit offer, I beleive it was making memories<br />
And last but not least my white gel pen (which I couldn't live without :)Sallyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15452590698363217624noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8830779828768242105.post-76605132602143015612010-10-12T19:54:00.000-07:002010-10-12T19:54:18.597-07:00This way to the beach Crab card<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifdf1BDy8j-iC64uzXP92FesSdcQj0Cv_q8LsWaESDeOK3MKX8rAp2yqcO6Fn7EKYxjLbqX8hxy9cvDqF8JziqljHR_aUGuY1ypnBwTg0u4RaL8uVfKFx_Amwc7-W_xHJFcD2s3oNvBI7R/s1600/Crab+card+7-10.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" ex="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifdf1BDy8j-iC64uzXP92FesSdcQj0Cv_q8LsWaESDeOK3MKX8rAp2yqcO6Fn7EKYxjLbqX8hxy9cvDqF8JziqljHR_aUGuY1ypnBwTg0u4RaL8uVfKFx_Amwc7-W_xHJFcD2s3oNvBI7R/s1600/Crab+card+7-10.jpg" /></a></div>I made this card for some friends of ours that came down to the ocean to saty with us.
