White signo gel pen for all the stitching, felt flowers with bling are from the Michael's $1 section (leaves I cut out), as is the felt butterfly.

KYLIE'S FIRST VIDEO...



Well... Hello everybody!! I am feeling much better now! Unfortunately, the star of this video, Kylie (my 4 year old) has had a fever the last 2 days. Makes me so sad when my babies are sick :(

Kylie and I worked on this video Tuesday, and she did a fantastic job. She told me that she didn't want to do the video on her own, but she would be my helper, so we did one together. She knows quite a bit about what to do, and she is very talkative, so she might be giving me a run for my money soon! lol! We worked on a card for her to give to her BFF Eleena, which is turning 5 next Wednesday. I hope you enjoy our video! It is long-20 mins, but my hubby couldn't bear to cut out any parts his little angel was in! lol! Thanks editor Tom!!


I couldn't get the videos on here...my setup is different now. Anyway, here are the links to youtube.
