happy, happy birthday!

Hello Everyone! I've added a new blog template! It is FREE from Leelou Blogs. Hehe goes with today's card -- ice-cream! And I absolutely LOVE cupcakes! It's funny how I won't eat a piece of cake but I'll eat a cupcake.

I made this card with new My Creative Time Stamps! I also used the the Doodle Charm Cartridge and D'vine Swirl, Swiss Dots, & Argyle Cuttlebug embossing folders.

I know I don't ever put what kind of paper I use. It is because I never know what brand it is! lol. I buy my papers randomly and I'm not too familiar with paper brands. OH but I do LOVE DCWV papers! Their paper packs are awesome. Ross & Big Lots has paper for really cheap. Check it out.



Sorry the picture is a bit blury! I noticed that it was blury when I had already uploaded to my computer and was too lazy to retake another one.

Thanks for looking!

BIG NEWS!

Hello Everyone! This morning I heard on the news that Los Angeles-Long Beach-Santa Ana, CA was the number one Metropolitan City with traffic. WELL!! Let me tell you how true that is! I left my house at 6:55 this morning. As soon as I got on the Freeway, there was an accident! And then another 4 exits down, there was a big rig that was overturned! I was stuck on the Freeway for over an hour, to travel 22 miles!

Enough of my rant!! GOOD NEWS! Do you guys ever wonder why my blog is called "White Bedroom Crafts?" Well, it's because I craft out of my bedroom. I have a little craft space in one corner of my room, along with all my clothes and shoes! The good news is that... I think I'm going to be getting a crafts room!!! I'll be sharing with my mom; she sews. We have a sun room in a backyard for plants and stuff. We keep our random junk in there. My mom said my dad is going to fix it up for us so my mom and I can share it! I'm so excited!!!

On Saturday, as I was blog hopping, I came across this blog My Creative Time. Emma has her own stamp line and I thought they were fantastic! I ordered the "Wow, So Many Candles" Set and when I got home yesterday, it had already arrived! Talk about fast shipping!

isn't it super cute?!

Here is a card that I made one of the stamps.

I used the Forever Young Cartridge. I was so in love with the silhouettes when it first came out.

This card was super simple to make!

to honor the PINK

Happy Monday Everyone! Yesterday I participated int he Susan G. Komen, LA County Breast Cancer Walk yesterday. It was awesome to see sooo many people there!

In honor of the the Breast Cancer Walk, today's post will be something PINK! I pretty much buy anything that has a breast cancer ribbon logo now or even anything pink. I saw this water bottle at my local Dollar Tree and it's only $1 and it's pink, I had to buy it. Since I already have a breast cancer ribbon water bottle, I bought this one for my mom.

I just put her name on it, Audrey, with a bunch of polkadots

You Take The CAKE!

Happy Friday everyone! I still have a cough after a whole week of meds. I hope I’m better before my trip!

Here’s another of my cards. This one isn’t that great. I was still testing out the “Just Because” cartridge. The color choice is very poor! I’ll probably attempt to make another one of these cards.

Thanks for looking!

get well card... feeling sick? MILK IT!

Since I'm still feeling very much under the weather, I think this card is perfect for today! I recently bought the "Just Because Cards" Cartridge and let me tell you that... it is awesome! I've had my Cricut for about 3 years now. I feel like the new cartridges are so much better and easier to put together.

This has got to be one of my favorite cards! There will be more cards to come. I was on the Cricut Messageboard and someone is challenging herself to use all of her cartridges. I was thinking I could do the same since I've actually never used every single one of them.

toiletry bottles

I will be going on vacation in 3 weeks to Cancun! This will be my 2nd time there. Mike has never been there and it’s actually really cheap to go there. Plus I have been dying to go on a vacation where the water is blue!! If you’ve ever been to a Southern California Beach you know how dirty the beaches are! The water is most definitely far from BLUE.

In the spirit of vacation mode, I already started to gather some of my things that I will be packing. One of the most important things are the toiletry items. I’ve had the same toiletry bottles for the past 3 or 4 years and some of them started to leak on my last trip. So! With that said…. Here are my new bottles.



With my last bottles, I always forgot which one was the shampoo and which one was the conditioner. So I had to label them this time around.

thanks for looking!

under the weather...

Hello from wet & rainy Southern California!

I am literally and figuratively under the weather. It is raining right now and I have been sick for 3 days! I don't know what happened. It started Wednesday morning when I woke up. I was coughing and I kept feeling like I had to throw up. I was coughing so bad that I had a headache and my whole body was aching. I went to the doctor yesterday and I have a hacking cough. I had so many different medications and so many home remedies so I can feel better. I guess I'm somewhat better. hehe rubbing Vick's on your feet and putting socks on before bed really helps with the cough!

Since I haven't been to work in 3 days you'd think I would have worked on something... but nope! I have been sleeping all day! I'm not even up at night. I sleep all day and all night! Hibernating like a polar bear.

Last week, I made a couple of cards but Mike hasn't taken pictures of them. He's been sick too. He's not as bad as I am though. He's such a sweetheart because as sick as he is, he still drove to my house to take care of me. Yesterday, he even brought me guava cheese pastries from Porto's Bakery. Probably not a good idea since I'm sick but that's probably the best thing I ate in 3 days!

I hope I'm all better by tomorrow so I can play with my Cricut!

Vinyl Decorated Jar

Since I said I would post at least once a week... Here it is!

This is actually an old project. I didn't realize that I hadn't posted this.  I made this for a manager from my previous department as a Thank You gift before I left.

It's a jar that I bought from Wal-Mart. I believe it was less than $5. The Cartridge that was used is Life’s A Beach & Tear Drop. I decided to layer the vinyl and it turned out fantastic!

Thanks for looking!

My awesome Valentine!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Happy Valentine's Day everyone!

Finally, here is the project I've been working on for Valentine's Day! This is something I read on greenbean's crafterole blog. She has a lot of fantastic ideas! Thank you for sharing your project with us.

This is made with the Cupcake Wrapper Cartridge. I wanted this cartridge so bad that I bought it from Wal-Mart for $40! I normally don't spend more than $30 a cartridge. It's a cupcake made out of the fuzzy socks! Right now, they seem to be very popular so you can get them pretty much anywhere for about $1. I got these from a local dollar store by my house.

This one is for Mike's boss, Maria.

This one is for my co-workers.

I wish I had the little red fuzz balls to make it look like there was a cherry on top! It still turned out cute though and everyone loved it! It was just funny how everyone didn't know they were socks at first sight.

By the way, Valentine's Day in the office is awesome! There are treats everywhere! Hope you all have a good one. Thanks for stopping by!
