Personal Business Card Holder
This is a business card holder that I adapted from Martha Stewart. Instead of using leather, I used a cloth-like vinyl that I purchased at a fabric store. I used a glue stick to put a small spot of glue in the center where the vinyl overlapped. In addition, I used BasicGrey magnets and Heidi Swapp rhinestones. It was a fun and easy project….the kind I like! For instructions click here.

Black and White Designs
Black and White is a favorite color combination of mine. Below are a few of my favorite black and white designs. I used the Cricut machine that I purchased from Ben Franklin’s in Helena, MT to create the purses. Also I used the Cricut to design the paper flowers on the purse. The wine journal was created using the Bind-it-all.
