I am MIA a bit this week because I have undertaken the HUGE task of moving my craft space back down to my craft room (from my bedroom.)
I moved it upstairs when my husband was deployed and now that he has been home a few months....he thinks it is best that it moves back to the cave :)
The good news---I will have TONS of good things to share soon. I NEED to purge in order to make room for the new!
In the meantime, how would you like to win the new issue (May/June) of Crafts 'n Things Magazine? I love this magazine for the variety of projects they offer. It is fun to see so many other craft ideas and figure out how i can relate them to paper:
Here is a card I have in the current issue:
And this card was in the March/April issue:

It turned out great!

Hey Cammie, since I am probably older then the majority of you, I have tried and enjoyed every craft that has come along. Macrame, tole painting, cross stitch, embroidery, flower arranging, cake decorating, crocheting. Right now I am working on a scrap book for my grand daughter who will be 21 on May 3rd. She is the daughter of my son, Scott that died in Feb. It is a very hard project to work on, but I believe one that she will hold close to her heart.
ReplyDeleteSince I am a subscriber here is my free chance. Thanks for brightening my days with your creative masterpieces.
ReplyDeleteYour cards are beautiful Cammie! I also like to crochet when I have time; but haven't made anything in a while now. Thanks for the chance to win!

ReplyDeleteI just moved my stuff too so I can feel your pain! Beautiful cards as always! I enjoy embrodery when not doing paper crafts - but I do very little of it.
ReplyDeleteI sometimes walk to the library on my lunch hour to check out Crafts 'n Things and can always pick out your cards. They just jump off the page at me. We are renovating our basement and I've been crafting out of boxes but next week the carpet will be installed and after I move everything back I'm hoping to be able to get down to some serious crafting. What do I do besides cards? At the moment I am making 60 notebooks for Girl Scout leader recognition night, a desk set for our membership services manager and boxes for Hershey kisses for troop organizers. But my real second love is cross stitching. I have several projects in the works. One is a Indianapolis Colts pillow for my son who is a huge Peyton Manning fan for Christmas. (I had to start early so I'd have plenty of time. I love to cross stitch but it's the sewing that will hang me up. LOL!) Thanks for the chance to win! Sorry I wrote a book!
ReplyDeleteIn addition to cards, I like making small chipboard albums and all things 3-D.
ReplyDeleteCammie..beautiful cards.. I would have to say my next best past time that is somewhat on the hobby/craft level is genealogy. I enjoying gathering info about my ancestors. Thnx for the chance to win..
ReplyDeleteGreat cards Cammie! I especially enjoy the handmade cards, but also do photography and use them to make cards. Scrapbook too...but not my favorite.
ReplyDeleteJan
Subscriber...second chance. Thank you Cammie!
ReplyDeleteJan

ReplyDeleteis scrapbooking, i am looking forward to starting a scrapbook for my new granddaughter! thanks for a chance to win
Great cards. I love this magazine also. Thanks for the chance to win.
ReplyDeleteoh I love to make mini albums! So exiting to see you published!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance to win! My favorite non-card item are mini albums.
ReplyDeleteBesides paper crafting, I love to sew, and needle felt....also have bought most of the "stuff" to try my hand at rug hooking...I have way too many interests which results in way too much stuff...but it makes me hjappy...can relate to the moving of the "room"...I have been renovating mine forever...it should be done soon...good luck!!
ReplyDeleteI am also a subscriber...thanks for the chance!!
ReplyDeleteomg - what besides cards. If you were to look in my craft room, you would swear it was a craft store! I've been really getting into boxes these days, just a short jump from cards. And I dabble in jewelry; paper beads, shrinky dink and lot and lots of beads.
ReplyDeleteCammie - my second entry (subscriber). What a patient hubby you have, sharing your bedroom with crafts all this time he's been home. Wow...you've got a keeper!
ReplyDeletegreat cards Cammie!

ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance to win this candy..
Good luck with the arranging stuff..my home is always in need of stamping and scrapping stuff!
Besides paper crafts, I love to knit and crochet. Thanks for offering the blog candy.
ReplyDeleteI suppose having your husband back makes it worth having to move your craft room :-) (We are glad he is back safe!!)
ReplyDeleteYour cards are lovely! Thanks for sharing!
I am a subscriber!! Wahooo.

ReplyDeleteWhat fun cards! Yours are always so neat and clean :) I enjoy sewing and making craft projects with my daughter when we are not making cards. Thanks for the fun!
ReplyDeleteJanet
Love your card. I just started card making I scrapbook. Thanks for a chance to win.
ReplyDeleteI am a subscriber.
ReplyDeleteI'm in the middle of a studio re-org and know the chaos. I always love your creations and find myself mostly working with paper based crafts, but do enjoy a bit of painting - usually on terra cotta pots for gifts.
ReplyDeleteNot sure if it counts, but I subscribe to your feed through Google Reader. I don't think that puts my in your cool Follower Group list on the blog though.
ReplyDeleteCammie, Love these cards your creations are always so inspiring. I am always torn between my two hobbies, paper crafting and quilting. It's like I have to set one aside to work on the other. I hope that when I retire someday that I will have enough hours in the day to do both all the time.
ReplyDeleteCan't really blame your husband, now can we??? I do needle work, right now I am doing a needlepoint.
ReplyDeleteHow fun to have your cards published
ReplyDeletein such a wonderful magazine! The card designs are delightful. I enjoy making my own embellishments for the cards that I make and I like making collages. Many thanks, Cindi

A pipe just burst in the ceiling of my little craft room (it's in the basement under the kitchen) so I am in the midst of tearing out the carpet and reorganizing. What a chore but the good news is that I have found a lot of goodies I have stashed away so when I do finally get it all back together, I will have my stuff out where I can find it to play with! Yea!!!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your room! :o)
Great cards....love the color blocking and color choices in the butterfly card.
ReplyDeleteYour cards are cute! I don't know that I've seen this particular magazine in my area. Besides cards and a little scrapbooking, I like to make little accordion books or triptychs for display.
ReplyDeleteI love to make and send cards after that I really think I am paper oriented and am planning on taking the time to scrapbook.
ReplyDeleteI'm a subscriber, too! Thanks again!
ReplyDeleteAm I tooo late? I'd love to win this :-) I haven't seen this issue of Crafts and Things yet on the newstand!
