Cartridges Used:

Paper Dolls for Everyday: Leaves

I embossed the flags & leaves and used some gold ink to make them pop!

Helloooo friends!!!! Okay so a couple weeks ago I did some decor for a Barbie Party. I made cupcake toppers, favor tags, and a door sign!! The colors were hot pink, black, and white! Pink is my most favorite color so I was pretty giddy while working on everything. I added some sparkle and bling to everything also. Here are some pics.

For the Barbie image I used my Cricut Mini and the Forever Young Cartridge.

Here are a few pics of the decor at the actual party.

I also spruced up her card envelope!

Well...thats all I have for you!! Let me know what you think!!

Until next time....

Flocking Powder

Okay so once upon a time I was in Wal-Mart and they had something called flocking powder on sale for 20 cents. Me being the crafter I am just had to have some. I had absolutely no clue what it was or how to use it. I think I purchased it like a year ago! Well today.... I was sitting here thinking of how I could add details to some cotton candy I cut out. Well first I thought of glitter bc I have tons and tons of glitter that I never use!! As girly I am and the mother of two girls you would think I'd glitter everything. So anyway.....i kept thinking to myself that I needed something soft and fuzzy!!! Then it hit me....the flocking powder!!! Lets just say I am in love. But now I have to go out and find some blue, for my blue cotton candy! Here is a pic....I think I did a pretty good job for my first time using it!! Tell me what you think!
