Come and shop with me.

I went to the Stamp & Scrapbook Expo in Mesa AZ!

I have been to the scrapbook expo quite a few times but I wanted to share my purchases with you.

I bought the following from Tall Mouse.  This is actually one of my favorite stores.  You can find them on facebook here:  https://www.facebook.com/tallmousecre8tiveartz

Below you will see some shaker bits I bought, aren't those little dog bones sooooo cute?  

The item in the shaker is foil bits for foiling, then they make a teflon bone folder so I had to get that too.  The pencil picks up tiny bits and places them exactly where you need it!  I just love their products and ingenuity.  Tall mouse is usually the first booth I go to.


Got some sparkly glittery paper for cards.



I also took a class called cool tools and in that class you also make 2 cards that can be made out of the tools you received.


The two cards are below:


The tools we received are below:

Box card die by Stephanie Barnard and stacking dies from Spellbinders.  Then we got the flower punches from We R Making Memories, and the powder brush from them as well. I had  lot of fun making these cards and I will have a lot more fun with the cool tools I received.


Of course it doesn't end here.  

I got these at the eyelet outlet and you can find them here:  https://www.facebook.com/eyeletoutletllc

I had to have this beer stamp set, it was just too cute and will be perfect for EVERYONE.



These Mickey heads were just so fun and will look great in my mickey cards or my scrapbook!



I got all these at Photo Play, you can find them here:  https://www.facebook.com/photoplaypaper

These paper packs come with paper and coordinating stickers. I didn't know really what this company was all about till this year.  I really like the fun designs.  I also got a free stamp set for spending over 30 bucks!











I got some really fun stuff and had a lot of fun crafting and shopping.  I didn't get to do any make n takes,  I felt like there was not a lot of them and they were always full with a lot of time to wait.  That was kind of a bummer and some of my favorite shops did not participate this year.  Oh and the buttons are all from 2020 so I thought that was odd but it was fun as usual.


If you ever get the chance to go, you should.  Its a really fun event.


Have a good day and please leave a comment with any suggestions you would like to see or with any feedback!

Come and make your own sublimation spray with me!

  Come make some sublimation spray with me! You are asking yourself what is sublimation spray and what is it used for? Well, as you may or may not know, you have to sublimate on polyester.  The higher the % of polyester the higher chance your image will stay on the item you are subbing on. Well, I found a way to make some spray that you can spray on cotton or any other fabric and it will sublimate.   For instance, I tried sublimating on this random patch I have.  I don't know what it is made of so i wanted to see if it would work.  It didn't.   Random Patch with no sub spray: Then I made the sublimation spray. Items you need: Polycrylic protective finish, I used clear satin but you can use clear matte as well. Spray Bottle Water Then your usual sublimation products: Sub paper Sub printer Heat press Fabric to sublimate on To make the spray, use 8 ounces of water and 2 tablespoons of Polycrylic.  Mix them together into a jar (I used a maso...

Foil With Me!

Come Craft With Me! I'm not sure why, but I LOVE foil and foiling.  I don't actually foil all that often but I love how it looks.  My husband bought me the Minc Foil machine for Valentines Day and I'm excited to play with it. I will go through each Foil tool below: (This is going to be a long blog post) Fun Foils by  Queen and Co. Nail Foil by Amazon Heatwave Pen by We R Memory Keepers Foil Quill for a cutting machine such as (Silhouette Cameo, Cricut) by We R Memory Keepers Foil Quill Freestyle which is a handheld foil writer by We R Memory Keepers Minc Foil Machine by Heidi Swapp Queen and Co. Fun Foils This foil sticks to sticky surfaces.  If you are not familiar with Queen & Co. they make super cute shaker card stuff.  The foil they came out with will stick to their shakers or really any sticky surface like tape or glue. you simply press the foil to the sticky surface and it is foiled.  Super simple, super easy.  Sometimes you do not get a good...
