<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">For Nina's card, my hearts were cut using my ScanNCut machine. Cuttlebug embossing folder was used. Very easy and quick card.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">For Ian's card, my heart shaped card was done using my ScanNCut machine with the online Canvas site. This allowed me to weld the two hearts. Though this can be done with just the machine, I like using the computer for designed work. My little robot guy is a pre-set design within the ScanNCut. I added the heart!</span></div>

For my stockings, I used a cut from someone's cricket cartridge. By scanning it into my ScanNCut, I was able to save the cut and cut out exactly how many I needed and the size I wanted. I wanted to leave plenty of room for photos, journaling and more embellishments.<br />

<br />
This challenge gave me a chance to dust off my Fiskar's crimper! I'm sure we all have those tools that we forget we have, but come in so handy when needed.<br />
<br />
For my card, I cut scallop circles using my Mother's Day Bouquet cartridge. For the vase (bowl) I used my Sizzix die and my Cuttlebug die for the leaves.<br />

I tried countless number of times to get the top part of the vase (that had the flowers), but the cut was to intricate and kept giving me a hard time. I decided to just use the base and from the same cartridge do a couple of flowers. So much easier! <br />
<br />

The fold of the napkin is quit simple. I put the 'right' side down and folded it in half and then half again. This gave me a square. Then taking the top point, bring it down half way. Last step is folding back the sides. I wanted to make a pocket to hold the chopsticks! For my paint I used Tulip (Matte) Soft Fabric Paint. The vase is a mix of blue and green; the flowers are pink and orange.<br />

Our very own Miss Betty has a brand new sweet smelling little granddaughter, Paisley. Since our challenge this week has to do with 'babies', I did a layout of this precious little girl. When I see Betty, I will give this layout to her.<br />
<br />
For my layout I used my new embossing rubber mat and embossing tip. I love how it worked on vellum; sorry I don't remember what cartridge I used for the frame. Paisley was done using Cursive 101. The border was done with my Fiskars border punch.<br />

It felt good getting into my scraproom and playing with my stash. I have been wanting to use my Imaginisce magnets that I purchased and never used. While visiting Target, I found the cutest journal on sale for under $3.00. The book is canvas and such a cool print that I didn't want to cover it up. I did a search and found the idea for the flower magnet book closure, but no matter how many times I looked at the YouTube video, I just wasn't getting it to work. So, I came up my own method and it works!..The flowers are glued to the magnet and then the magnet is glued to the book. It took a few tries with ribbon and found the lighter ribbon works best. I did a decorative cover inside to hide the ribbon and everything is secure. So, do the Ns look a little funky? They should. I didn't have any Ns, so I used a couple Ms and cut them..I think it works with the album..lol..<br />
<br />
<br />
Inside the journal I will help Nina set it up to be more than just a journal. When we were at the Mall, she found a journal that had comments for her to answer..Cool and very fun. So, I cut a few mats for photos. Example would be her photo on the first page. She can write 'me' and give the color of her hair,eyes, etc. There will be a page for anyone she wants listed and also questions like her favorite song, book, colors..whatever..This should be fun working with her to get it started. Hopefully, I can get a photo once the pages get filled in some.<br />

<br />
<br />
Today I will be showing you how to do Spirelli or 'string art'.<br />
<br />
For some of you this may be a new technique and for some, just a reminder of a technique we sometimes forget to use. This is such an easy technique allowing you to make various designs to work with your project. <br />
<br />
The first thing you need is your template. This can be cut with any cutting machine, manual or electric. What also works well too are Nestibilities. Don't forget to do a search online for free templates.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9yEDQCJqz73iYv66b6KCH0JM8KImcuFugLTk098ufJWaiz8OLGlbITa_diuQ1lgj3VS9wwC2pjTQLrd3G3FqP1NDSx5k03Ohz2laGQigHifrpfr2LLwIhujTxsWHerTfVpNNW_TUD1Qni/s1600/2009-10-06_3.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" l6="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9yEDQCJqz73iYv66b6KCH0JM8KImcuFugLTk098ufJWaiz8OLGlbITa_diuQ1lgj3VS9wwC2pjTQLrd3G3FqP1NDSx5k03Ohz2laGQigHifrpfr2LLwIhujTxsWHerTfVpNNW_TUD1Qni/s320/2009-10-06_3.JPG" width="239" /></a></div><br />
For my sample I used a pattern from one of my Nestibilities. <br />
<br />
Tape the end of your string to the back of the template. I keep the string on the spool since I have no idea how much I will need.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdDPDvqdZL4Q4MSEjwMkRxFQCYWbUON2SB4eG-3oKGeeioPbZRRgqzk0zM9dML7YSNr_fK3din5JDNblMCTfvSGqASei6GvZbCcVeiWdEgPdmaLAeXequyeoBodClK-WnrwbBpkrJUdhh4/s1600/2009-10-06_4.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" l6="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdDPDvqdZL4Q4MSEjwMkRxFQCYWbUON2SB4eG-3oKGeeioPbZRRgqzk0zM9dML7YSNr_fK3din5JDNblMCTfvSGqASei6GvZbCcVeiWdEgPdmaLAeXequyeoBodClK-WnrwbBpkrJUdhh4/s320/2009-10-06_4.JPG" width="270" /></a></div>As you can see from the photo, you start by bringing the string to the front and depending on your design, bring it down and then under the cardstock to your point B. Bring it up so you start again at the next groove to the starting point. Bring that down to your new 'B' and go under and keep going. You will notice the string crosses over.<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEieOQodGoIrVGSzM91SGQhOqk0ocKQASUl-OT4iqNufh6FlwJhCugjZN3okjhoXX6rSfBFPw9cjacZ2YMsz7GWdxvy0d45NWJbmD4ouKLQhlgCEFkouAQ8-_6iYGd7gt7hAUgyANtANU8uW/s1600/2009-10-06_5.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" l6="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEieOQodGoIrVGSzM91SGQhOqk0ocKQASUl-OT4iqNufh6FlwJhCugjZN3okjhoXX6rSfBFPw9cjacZ2YMsz7GWdxvy0d45NWJbmD4ouKLQhlgCEFkouAQ8-_6iYGd7gt7hAUgyANtANU8uW/s320/2009-10-06_5.JPG" width="308" /></a></div><br />
When I do my design, I keep going until there 'diamond' shapes for each groove. This also helps me keep track should I get distracted.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1S5rEkAgw2TgB24g6nJ1ukH0CyStPkE5RU-Wy_GY-MTg22v5g7FbG-TUjySq4zFBigw_s8YzCsvbA8x6sXG9zK_Y5DNPmUbqwEKXOAZI0XLyFx0Kki3m9pK6hMP3O-CM6OS4E3Cs2PIEd/s1600/2009-10-06_8.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="314" l6="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1S5rEkAgw2TgB24g6nJ1ukH0CyStPkE5RU-Wy_GY-MTg22v5g7FbG-TUjySq4zFBigw_s8YzCsvbA8x6sXG9zK_Y5DNPmUbqwEKXOAZI0XLyFx0Kki3m9pK6hMP3O-CM6OS4E3Cs2PIEd/s320/2009-10-06_8.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><br />
Depending where you bring your part A to meet part B will determine how much space you have in the middle. By bringing the string from A to B close, you will have more space in the middle to add whatever you would like.<br />
<br />
Here is a different edged shape.<br />
<br />
<br />

Here are two cards I made using a cut from my Lacy Labels cartridge. By changing the size on my Design Studio, I was able to get an oval shape.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj82kg90toma6HSSdlYJw6eso1CHU0n6FdSbA6fusayqUf3-FD8C4bThApTk8TkmDZUZuvvLxhnclOiJpPZjAsP9f8WxowYASfBKsKzSAo3yNR-3Us-Huvjl79-odgOV3iZl_j1SnGqUm-f/s1600/2011-03-06_09-10-45.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="308" l6="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj82kg90toma6HSSdlYJw6eso1CHU0n6FdSbA6fusayqUf3-FD8C4bThApTk8TkmDZUZuvvLxhnclOiJpPZjAsP9f8WxowYASfBKsKzSAo3yNR-3Us-Huvjl79-odgOV3iZl_j1SnGqUm-f/s400/2011-03-06_09-10-45.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><br />
The center for this one was just big enough to fit the flowers in. The center was done using my I-Top!<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAs3kZWCjrZHobE4zZfOdMwzXFCWX0H6WRiGE-Mcsi404DCi1EJpUBSWbHEj8GoayacypyKAbfuWVybREEdXmD_x8bQyraFHylnWVy2m-5HEoXYfAn5gCDUXxV1xl_Yk6seaf6-k9wSx0g/s1600/2011-03-06_09-11-17.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="308" l6="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAs3kZWCjrZHobE4zZfOdMwzXFCWX0H6WRiGE-Mcsi404DCi1EJpUBSWbHEj8GoayacypyKAbfuWVybREEdXmD_x8bQyraFHylnWVy2m-5HEoXYfAn5gCDUXxV1xl_Yk6seaf6-k9wSx0g/s400/2011-03-06_09-11-17.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>Using the original shape, a circle, I designed this to have a larger opening.<br />
<br />
I would like for you to notice that I cut little slits on this template to hold the string. This allowed me to used this super cool cut and not have my string move on me.<br />
<br />
I sure hope my instructions were easy enough to follow and please, if you have any questions let me know.

<br />
I use a glass 12 x 12 'mat' on my work table and this allowed me to tape the 3 ribbons for easy braiding.<br />

This is just what I needed after spending time in the hospital. Of course, it also gave me the motivation to get well and though I was not quite there, I was well enough to go, host and have a blast!!..<br />
On a previous SWARM, I had mentioned that the Chippndales were going to be at Rosie's Casino and guess what...the 'chipsndales' were there! I found clipart online of the Chip and Dale, printed them on 8 1/2 x 11 and cut. A little added Copic was used to highlight some of the features. I then saved some that had various hats and using my Paint Shop Pro, cropped the hat, sized it to fit my 'guys' and then glittered them up. Now, you know they needed clothes!!..I made templates of the bow ties and 'briefs', scanned them and then had my Make The Cut cut them for me. Taking a $10.00 bill from my husband, I scanned that and sized it for tucking in...lol..<br />

<br />
I took the heart and flipped it so now it became a circus tent!!..If you look at Valita's site, you notice that her hearts are cut and folded to make his and her clothing. Not sure why I pictured it upside down and tent, but here is my take on her project. Thank you Valita for the inspiration!!<br />
<br />
not sure if you can see inside the tent, but that's a gorilla (who got away) sticker..lol..<br />

I found a Christmas photo of Ian and mom puckering up to kiss. How perfect!! After cutting out the two heads, I pained them with Americana Deco Art acrylic paint. So easy!!! After it was dried, I then painted in the opposite direction. <br />

It all started when Jeff and Sam returned from NYC with two cute <country-region w:st="on"><place w:st="on">China</place></country-region> doll dresses for Nina to wear. We thought how fun it would be to bring Nina to Epcot and dress her themed for each country. I would like to mention that I do not sew, but was able to make her a kimono!! I just love iron on binding..lol This was a two day affair with Jeff joining us the second day. Nina was so good at allowing us to change her clothes and allowing cast members to hold and interact with her. The girl from <country-region w:st="on"><place w:st="on">Morocco</place></country-region> dressed Nina with clothing from their store and my heart melted when I saw her and swelled to see people standing around as if Nina were a celebrity. When we arrived at <place w:st="on"><country-region w:st="on">England</country-region></place>, the girl there dressed Nina in a dress that cost about $150.00!!..Wow, what a fun surprise since I couldn’t buy it to dress her in. Nina was just learning to stand so we were excited to get her standing up ‘holding’ the lion in <country-region w:st="on"><place w:st="on">China</place></country-region>. This album was also done before I knew off all the scrapbooking supplies out there and maybe that is why this is my favorite, because I created it. The first album I ever did was the baby shower; this was my second or third album.<br />
<br />

Except for when you make <strong><span style="color: #990000;">RUM BALLS</span></strong>!! No baking required and so simple to do. I haven't made these in a couple of years, but I promissed my husband I would make some for him to bring to work. Though these can be made anytime, I always chose Christmas as my time to do them. On Motivation Monday, HoneyBee Beth shared with us a yummy cookie recipe. So, today we are sharing our yummy treat with you!<br />

<br />
The other day a neighbor asked if I would put into a frame a prayer she wanted to give her daughter. She brought over a 4x6 frame and I suggested an 8 x 10 would be better. When I found out the daughter loves pink, I suggested a black frame; I love that color combo, don't you?<br />
<br />
I used my own design from my Creative Liberties wall plaque I made, to design this frame for my friend. Using WORD, I printed out the prayer to the size I wanted to display inside the frame. I had so much fun 'decorating' this and was pleased with the end result. My neighbor was so delighted and was very sweet with her compliments to me. <br />

I also used one of my 'new' toys!..Sew Easy and guess what? It is easy! I am not a sewer, but this tool did two things for me. First, it allowed me to stitch on my cardstock since I have no luck with my mini sewing machine. Second, because this is hand done and takes time, it made me sit down and relax!..I was surprised how relaxing it was and I was able to watch a Christmas movie on TV! For my tag, I used a Cuttlebug cut and emboss plate. Then, using my second 'new' toy, I made a brad with I-Top using a piece of the same paper that I stitched. Don't you just love easy placement stickers and new toys to make a quick card?<br />
