Its been so long! I can't believe I've neglected this poor little blog for so many months! Its been an incredibly busy few months for me, so please excuse my long absence. I spent a lot of time with family, I moved into a new place with the husband, and I got a new job that I love. I'm finally starting to get back into crafting again. I'm still working on unpacking and organizing all of my stuff. But I do have a craft fair coming up so I'm on a time frame! I will be back (very soon!) to show off my craft fair goodies!<br />

I've had it for about 4 years so I guess it was bound to happen. My husband is working very hard to try to recover all our files but I don't know if he will be able to. Until then I won't really be able to post anything. Right now I'm on my nook color and its a little hard to post from here. I do have some prjects I was going to post, a card and some other suff. I will do my best to post again soon.

I just love that saying. Its so springy and happy! So I decided to use it for my card! Don't you love when you can do that? Creativity at its finest! The stamp and ink are from Studio G, glitter is Martha Stewart carnelian, the flower inside is Prima.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-x050RgelTSo/Tat3iWNldxI/AAAAAAAAAEY/IbwqyBizl50/s1600/DSC_0001-4.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="212" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-x050RgelTSo/Tat3iWNldxI/AAAAAAAAAEY/IbwqyBizl50/s320/DSC_0001-4.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I used a glue pen and glitter to do the sentiment. I'm not sure if I like how it came out but I do like the effect. I might try it on another card.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-NO072sGYnkc/TZkZF0xt4NI/AAAAAAAAAEM/yDW9FQ93gp8/s1600/DSC_0010-1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="135" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-NO072sGYnkc/TZkZF0xt4NI/AAAAAAAAAEM/yDW9FQ93gp8/s320/DSC_0010-1.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">My Easter cards! I had the patterned paper for the longest time and I finally decided to use it. It isn't really my style because I don't really like pastels. But since pastels and Easter go hand in hand, I figured I'd use it for all my Easter cards. Then it would be gone and I wouldn't have it sitting in my collection for the next 6 years. The card in the center actually has glitter on that stripe. It looks much better in person. The one on the left is a spinner card! My very first! I used the <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nXJPNJP2mB8&feature=feedwll&list=WL">tutorial</a> from Scrappin' with My Bug. Its actually really easy. I did it in one try!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Now on to my miss.</div><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-czeWL0V5K18/TZkZIVVM3nI/AAAAAAAAAEQ/1h3QbVnQmUs/s1600/DSC_0013-1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="212" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-czeWL0V5K18/TZkZIVVM3nI/AAAAAAAAAEQ/1h3QbVnQmUs/s320/DSC_0013-1.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I recently bought a bunch of tiles at the home improvement store for 39 cents a piece. I looked around on the internet until I saw <a href="http://thatlookslikecraft.blogspot.com/2010/06/etched-coasters.html">this</a>. Etched coasters! It seemed easy enough and I had all the supplies so I gave it a shot! It was so easy. The hardest part was waiting for the etching cream! I think my tile turned out okay but next time I do it I need to use more etching cream. You can't tell in the picture but theres some spots where the etching isn't as good. I do like the effect though and I can't wait to do it again!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Well thats all for now! I'm working on something else now but I can't post it until Wednesday since its a gift and the recipient reads this!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

For a few days I was sick with a little cold. But my good friend Zicam cleared that right up! No worries though, I did TONS of crafting today. But since I didn't finish until after dark, you'll have to wait until tomorrow for pictures! Trust me, it will be worth it!<br />

Its been a while! First, I want to thank all of my new followers! I know quite a few of you found me through Momo. Thank you for checking out my blog and becoming followers! My heart was happy when I saw all my new followers! For those who found me before Momo, thank you for being followers!<br />
<br />
Second, a number of you commented on my <a href="http://thecraftykaity.blogspot.com/2011/03/update.html">post</a> about my uncle. Unfortunaly he did not get better. Last Sunday, March the 20 my uncle passed away at only 50 years old. This past week has been very emotional with the funeral and various family gatherings. Thank you all for your kind thoughts though. They did make me feel better. Now that his funeral is over I'm hoping to have more time to craft. Crafting heals the heart :)<br />
<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">The card looks very turquoise in this picture but its lighter. The white part with the birds on it is fuzzy. I love that paper, I got it from Michael's for $.17! The duck and rattle are stickers and they are glittery but not so much that it screams girly. Looking at the picture I think my letters are crooked! Oops, thats what I get for doing this card late at night! Enjoy!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

My uncle was admitted to the hospital with liver failure and has steadily been declining since. I have been spending a lot of time there with my family hoping and praying for him to recover. He has started to improve a tiny but as of today, however we are still being very cautious.<br />
<br />
Also, my husband and I are currently in the middle of buying a home. So we are very busy with that as well. I hope to be able to craft again soon but I don't have a time frame.<br />
<br />
Thank you all for your support and understanding.<br />

His coworker is leaving to go to a new area. The Soarin' logo on the front is property of the Walt Disney Company and I used it for my own private use. The cartridge used for the font was Plantin Schoolbook. On the inside of the card I put a treeline, a sea cutout and an orange to represent the three scents on the ride.<br />

They are a great organization that sends cards to children in need. I haven't had the opportunity yet to work with them, however I do follow their <a href="http://www.cardcupids.org/blog/">blog.</a> Its always a joy to read and they have some really awesome posts. One of the weekly posts at Card Cupids is a weekly challenge. It changes every Sunday and the themes are always pretty general. This week its red, white and blue.<br />
I don't know about you but to me red, white and blue makes me think of the American flag. I didn't really want to do a patriotic card since I felt like that would be to easy. So instead I went through my paper stash to see what I had. I also realized that this would be a perfect opportunity to do something for my friends wedding since her colors are red and blue.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-r8dPD6jG4sU/TV8iH1zXvJI/AAAAAAAAAD4/T40F_HpO9kg/s1600/DSCF6725.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-r8dPD6jG4sU/TV8iH1zXvJI/AAAAAAAAAD4/T40F_HpO9kg/s320/DSCF6725.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Since my friend and her fiance haven't set a date yet I decided to just do a best wishes card. This way I can send it now and she will have some color inspiration for her wedding. The dark grey dots are actually medium grey crystals, the picture just doesn't do a good job of showing them off. This card came out totally different than how I pictured it in my head but I love it. Now its off to the mailbox to go to my friend.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

Its been a while! Husband and I are trying to buy a house so crafting has taken a back seat. Never fear though I did find the time to make some super cute pillows! These were a gift to husband for Valentine's Day on Monday. I think the total amount of time it took was about 2 hours. Super simple and super cute.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-w1EYeR1ltDo/TVw4HxaU0sI/AAAAAAAAADo/hKsFy2ZPWRw/s1600/DSC_1032.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="158" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-w1EYeR1ltDo/TVw4HxaU0sI/AAAAAAAAADo/hKsFy2ZPWRw/s320/DSC_1032.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-DglJYStlYyo/TVw4Iui0VhI/AAAAAAAAADs/dGCvfzq3DJo/s1600/DSC_1033.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="214" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-DglJYStlYyo/TVw4Iui0VhI/AAAAAAAAADs/dGCvfzq3DJo/s320/DSC_1033.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div>Supplies used: two white pillowcases, fabric paint, pencil, ruler, bowl (or something head sized), and cardboard.<br />
Make sure you put the card board inside your pillowcases before starting. I penciled out what my design would be using the bowl and ruler. Then once I was happy with my design I just went over it with fabric paint. The pencil will wash out after a couple times so its okay if you make a couple mistakes. I let my pillowcases dry overnight since you want them to be completely dry. Throw them in the dryer or use a hair dryer on cool for about 10 minutes to set the paint. Then wash them with a little bit of detergent and you're good to go!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Husband loved them and I love how they look on my bed!<br />

It was super easy and I did it all in one day, start to finish. My supplies were initials from Michael's (found in the dollar section), a ready to finish wooden plaque, some scrapbook paper, Mod Podge, paint and cement glue. The total cost was around $6. ($2 per letter, everything else I had on hand.)</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The first thing I did was take my wooden plaque and paint it. My sister in law told me her favorite colors were purple and grey so I used those colors. I did grey for the center and purple for the trim.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_DUE3MkjLHPo/TS-_EUr-MBI/AAAAAAAAADM/FACGCaHeEqs/s1600/DSCF6660.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_DUE3MkjLHPo/TS-_EUr-MBI/AAAAAAAAADM/FACGCaHeEqs/s320/DSCF6660.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The shades used were Dark Grey and Eggplant Purple.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_DUE3MkjLHPo/TS-_mR0gr7I/AAAAAAAAADY/J4aEZxKssho/s1600/DSCF6690.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_DUE3MkjLHPo/TS-_mR0gr7I/AAAAAAAAADY/J4aEZxKssho/s320/DSCF6690.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">While the paint was drying, I mod podged the scrapbook paper onto my letters. Then I carefully cut around with an exacto knife and used a nail file to get any loose pieces. This part was a little tricky since the letters had some curves in them. I did my sister in law's initials, their last initial and then my brother in law's initial.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_DUE3MkjLHPo/TS-_QcF7x6I/AAAAAAAAADQ/2YzHV_7EKdU/s1600/DSCF6662.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_DUE3MkjLHPo/TS-_QcF7x6I/AAAAAAAAADQ/2YzHV_7EKdU/s320/DSCF6662.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Here's a close-up of one of the letters. I really liked this paper because I felt like it fit the colors wonderfully.</div><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_DUE3MkjLHPo/TS-_a8kSlVI/AAAAAAAAADU/z3CK9VMTWI8/s1600/DSCF6666.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_DUE3MkjLHPo/TS-_a8kSlVI/AAAAAAAAADU/z3CK9VMTWI8/s320/DSCF6666.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">After my paint dried and the letters were finished, I used my cement glue to attach the letters to the plaque. The hooks on the bottom of the plaque actually came attached to the letters, I just unscrewed them from there and put them on the plaque using the same screws. I really like the way it turned out, I don't think this picture does it justice. </div><br />

I'm back! Its been a busy couple of weeks but I had a ton of fun. I sure will miss my niece and her parents. Until next time! On to the crafts:<br />
<br />
This year for Christmas, I wanted to do as many hand made gifts as possible. One of the gifts I settled on was a sugar scrub for hands. I made it for my sister in law. Its super simple, and super nice. Here's what you do: take about 1 cup of sugar and pour it into a bowl. Then add soap (I used Dawn Hand Renewal with Olay. Smells great and has beautiful colors!). Any kind of soap will do. Then using a spoon, mix it until it has a consistency thats grainy but still liquid. I don't have any pictures of this while I was doing it. Sorry!<br />
<br />
After you've mixed your scrub, take some jars or containers and spoon it in. I found my jars at Wal Mart for about $2 each. They were the perfect size and they look pricier than they are. Look in the kitchen section if you need some cute little jars. I've also put them into leftover canning jars from my wedding. Tie some ribbon around the top and you're good to go!<br />
<br />

After my husband and I got married we printed all our honeymoon pictures from them. My husband also prints a lot of his bird pictures from there. The pictures are always great quality and a great price. Which you can't beat! So if you're a blogger go <a href="http://blog.shutterfly.com/5358/holiday2010-blog-submission-form/">here</a> to sign up for your free Christmas cards!Kaity-Bug Craftshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16789008168455381870noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5640040814140179714.post-88483102304525096502010-12-01T14:22:00.000-05:002010-12-01T14:22:08.225-05:00I'm a horrible updater!I am such a bad updater! I don't even have anything to update you on now! I have a half finished tutu in the works as well as Christmas cards, notebooks and a painted sign for my mother's job. I wish I had pictures but my husband has been sleeping a lot and he is the photographer.<br />
<br />
I'm afraid I won't be on much for a few days or so because my niece and her parents are coming down to visit! They live in the NYC area so we don't get to see them much. But I promise I will have stuff to write about when I come back!Kaity-Bug Craftshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16789008168455381870noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5640040814140179714.post-32711382524789302442010-11-25T09:00:00.001-05:002010-11-25T09:00:41.945-05:00Happy Thanksgiving!Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

I needed new photos for my webs store so Jason (my wonderful husband) pulled out his camera and started clicking away. He got some great shots and I already started putting some up. But while he was shooting, we had some fun too! So here's a few goofy shots from this morning.<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">This is Nani, one of our cats. She had to help out. The other cat was behind the curtain.</div><br />

I had a blast at it! It was in Kissimmee, FL and was put on by the Kissimmee Main Street. It was a smaller craft fair since it was in its first year. I didn't make to many sales unfortunately but I think I did pretty well considering it was my first fair and it was small. I sold Christmas planners, altered notebooks, post it stands, cards and bookmarks. My cards and bookmarks kept flying away from the wind so I had to put them away. I'm going to look for some way to display them and keep them safe from the wind for next time. Enjoy some pictures from yesterday below.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_DUE3MkjLHPo/TOp63TqXGfI/AAAAAAAAACI/ZTQOdR6FiOo/s1600/CF1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="202" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_DUE3MkjLHPo/TOp63TqXGfI/AAAAAAAAACI/ZTQOdR6FiOo/s320/CF1.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">The cards. I didn't put a lot out. I really need a better way to display them though. I don't think they called enough attention to themselves.</div><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_DUE3MkjLHPo/TOp631W8FyI/AAAAAAAAACM/DKgGmckL8Iw/s1600/CF2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="282" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_DUE3MkjLHPo/TOp631W8FyI/AAAAAAAAACM/DKgGmckL8Iw/s320/CF2.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Post it stands. I had a lot of people express interest in them, just not a lot of buyers. I think that had more to do with the fact that there wasn't a lot of people there. They are currently listed in my webs store.</div><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_DUE3MkjLHPo/TOp64HImPKI/AAAAAAAAACQ/bLKj-teD-iE/s1600/CF3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="125" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_DUE3MkjLHPo/TOp64HImPKI/AAAAAAAAACQ/bLKj-teD-iE/s320/CF3.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> Yes that is me in the background wearing shorts. I was also wearing a short sleeved shirt and sandals. The benefits of living in Florida year round. :) Also, those are the Christmas planners and notebooks. I had a few buyers for these and I think I may have some custom orders coming in soon.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">All in all, it was a good day. I learned a lot and I have some ideas for changes for my next craft fair. I can't wait for it either!</div><br />

I haven't blogged in a while! I'm pretty bad at updating this thing, but I'm hoping to get better. I've been doing lots of crafty things in the last month. I have a craft fair coming up on the 20th of November so I'm busy busy busy! I'm making Christmas planners, post it stands, bookmarks and of course cards. I think I will do pretty well. This is the first time this specific craft fair is happening so I'm just hoping for a good turnout. I promise I will post some pictures later but right now I'm off to celebrate my birthday today!Kaity-Bug Craftshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16789008168455381870noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5640040814140179714.post-28018542553631761252010-10-11T16:39:00.001-04:002010-10-20T20:47:13.338-04:00Surprise!Remember this?<br />
