Old From Card to Crop Submission

Here is a Card and Scrapbook Duo I had entered awhile back. I love anything that glitters and I think this one takes the cake. I used the Pee Wee Art Glitters to fill in all of the Swirly Gig designs. I also love the picture I used in the scrapbook layout of my boyfriend's niece. She has a little bit of attitude and sass. While I was not able to go to seminar, while looking through fellow angel's pictures, I found a board with the layout on it! That was super exciting to see.

The Scrapbook Layout:

Starting fresh!

Due to the fact that I have neglected my blog, I have decided to start fresh. I cleared out all of my old posts and am going to start over. I will re-post all of the cards I had up previously. I am going to start off with my first item that made it on the website. It made it into the Terrific Touches and was pretty exciting.
The easiest way I have found to get the clock face off is by using a flat screwdriver with electrical or athetic tape wrapped around the end (won't scratch the clock.) Stick the screwdriver between the clear face and colored part of the clock and lightly push the screwdriver towards the center of the clock and pull up. There are three notches that hold the clear face into the clock and once one is out, you can slip the face off.
Here is what I used to make the clock that I purchased at Wal-Mart.
