Shamrock, Seed, Leaf, Heart, Butterfly, & Bow

Hello You Crafty People, Ever thought to yourself I can do that? Well, I had an “Ah-Ha” moment while I was looking at Silhouette online store. Sure everything is 50% off and 40 cents don’t mean much when you’re rummaging through hundreds of images. But some of the images I was like “I can totally make this myself” so I […]

Polaroid Card – Girly Girl

Hey Crafter, Well it’s now Saturday morning at 12:26 am to be accurate, and YouTube is taking forever to post my tutorials. This is super bad since my Friday Night Highlight is starting to become Saturday Morning.  Ah well at least I’m getting it done and with no kids trying to sabotage me or call me away because they have […]

Starting Friday Night

Hello Crafters, Monica here back in the pho limelight again. I feel like one of those no-name Hollywood actors that do a few shows here and there, then they disappear for a few years and out of nowhere pop up again. Like a gofer, prairie dog, or some other mammal that pokes its head out. However, no longer I say!!! […]

More Bookmarks and a Late Night Rant

How late was I doing this video? Way too late if you ask me, my son stayed over at his Mema’s (Grandma) while my 3-month-old had a party with mama (me) till 1 AM. Yeah, that’s right I was up with her because she just didn’t want to go to sleep. For whatever reason Sammy hasn’t found her sleeping stride, […]

Have you ever walked into a store after your friends tell you there was a big sale, and you may be able to still find something good if you go? One, you most likely go because you totally love the sale and two your friends just walked away with bags and bags of stuff. Well, when I heard on YouTube […]

Film Strip Bookmark

I wanted to give a shout-out to Doreen over at http://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5QnvO9lLttEXAhSot3VMKg for letting me know about http://www.screencast-o-matic.com. I have made tons of projects on the silhouette and I had no way of showing them on YouTube. But by using the Screencast-o-Matic free version I am able to show up to 15min for tutorials. If I do a lot this year […]

Michael’s & 99 Cent Mini Haul

I am sure many of you are wondering “really a haul video?” To which I will say YES people it’s a haul video if you don’t like them, you don’t need to watch. But I find watching haul videos very informative. I mean if it wasn’t for hauls videos I wouldn’t know what is worth buying when I can get […]

Kimbo Creations Challenge – Bookmark

Back in the Swing of Things!

Well, it has been a long time… I see from my last post I hadn’t done anything since July 24, 2013. Wow, I tell you, time flies when you have a baby. My little baby girl was born on October 23 and was a healthy 6 lb 6 oz. Now she is a chunky 12 lb 10 0z, it’s that […]
