A post from a friend

We belong to the same forum at Blackcatus.com   It is all about our electronic die cutting system.  I love my Cougar and she has a Lynx.  To inspire, I issued a challenge to make Faux Postage Stamps.   This very talented lady made some amazing ones to send to her partner in the swap. 

Check it out here http://reflectionsandcreativity.blogspot.com/




Make sure you read other posts on her blog.  She has a very creative mind and shares wonderful ideas and tips.

Thanks for looking and send people over, as I'm going to be trying to inspire as others have inspired me!!!

My Niece's Wedding

Hi everyone!!!  We had so much fun at my Niece's wedding. It was fun and the people were participating and just enjoying themselves. My parents were the couple married the longest and they even danced. It was a great day!!  Knowing that my other Niece's little boy was okay and home from the hospital made it even better!!

 Everyone looked so nice!!  It was a beautiful and fun evening.

I made a gift for them with canvas's, my Black Cat cutter and some free and designed files.





Behind the canvas is a box with a travel pattern on it that is also part of the gift given to them.  These all fit into the box.   I love doing these as gifts at they make a great gift that is something that nobody else can give.    I used  wonderful shimmer paper, glitter paper, Graphix 45 paper, The best Glue, Tim Holtz embelishments and I had so much fun.  I hope you enjoy this and would love to see what you create.

Please check out my new store www.royalinspirationssvg.com for some of the designs that I make.  There are free files and also those to buy.  If you need something designed to make your own gift or even made for you, please contact me!!!  

Thank you for looking!  Blessings!!

A New Machine in Town!!

There is a new machine in town.   A machine that does even more than my Black Cat Cougar does.   I love my cutter and making files to make just what I want.   But, this machine is not only quiet but does so at a speed that makes yo want to just watch it work.  Check it out here;  Pheonix Silver Bullet by Louise  She does a great job explaining the differences on the machine and the service.   

I have to say that my service from Sherri and Dawn has been outstanding.   The forum has been a wonderful place to share what I do with others with the same passion.   

Hope your day has been wonderful!!!

Dana is a great one at creating fun and great projects.  So follow on her blog, friend her on facebook and pinterest if you love her stuff like I do.  Make sure she knows.   I know when I don't get a response, it makes you feel like you are talking to yourself!!  (Okay - laugh, I know I talk to myself and answer too!.) 

Have a great week.   Today was a great day as I am at work and to be honest - only started hurting just a little bit ago.  Blessings friends, and remember to do something for someone and give Jesus the glory!

Almost 2012

Hi. I know I haven't posted for a while. I was able to make a gift for my aunt's 80th birthday. I forgot to take pictures. Sorry everyone. I hope to be sharing more soon.

I hope you all have a very blessed Christmas. It was a good one here. Mom and dad were able to come home this year and we had a good time.

Anyway, I pray your New Year is especially a good one. That Jesus is the focus and that many come to know him.through your faithfulness. With all my heart, bless you all!!!
