Paper Flowers!

I love to recycle items and that’s why I am an altered art fanatic! I have started cutting up junk mail, painting it and turning it into flowers. These can be used to embellish ATCs, altered books, scrapbooks and even handmade cards. Not only are they fun to make but you’re also doing your bit to save the environment while having fun!

To Buy Or Not To Buy?

It took me over a month of conducting extensive research on the web before I committed to buying a die cutting machine. My first question to myself was whether I really needed it or not? That one was easily answered as I am an avid crafter and a die cutting machine really makes life MUCH easier. The next, more challenging question, was which one to buy? The market has lots of different models with different mechanisms, weights and abilities.
