T-Rex Shimmy Mob Dress Rehearsal

Thought you might enjoy another laugh this week :)  I crack up every time I watch this (and yes, I have watched it multiple times and have belly laughed every single time)!  Hope this gives you more smiles :)  And yes...that's me in the T-Rex costume :)  It's amazing how being in a costume can loosen me up ;)

Card Candy Flip Book by Regina Andari

Card Candy Flip Book!  – Regina Andari

Create a flip book, complete with elements that flip and open, with card candy that the recipient can remove and use to decorate note and greeting cards.  One of the “flip” elements is a glassine bag that holds twine and jewels to further decorate the cards.  The flip book includes a pocket to hold an instructional note for the recipient, and there’s another pocket to hold additional embellishments, punched or die-cut shapes, stamped sentiments, etc.  This tutorial includes eight assorted card candy decorative layers, including the one on the front of the flip book, which can be lifted from the book and adhered to a card.  This is a fabulous project to make for another stamper/card-maker, and it would also be a great stamp camp project.  Get the full step-by-step instructions by subscribing to the month of May at Craft Project Central!

T-Rex Tuesday!!!!

Thought you might enjoy seeing how I spent my Saturday afternoon this past weekend!  It was for a wonderful cause - Shimmy Mob!  We were raising awareness about domestic violence and raising money to donate to a local shelter for women.  In case you're wondering which one of the dancers I am...I am in the front row...and I'm over 7 feet tall ;)
