Grown UP Coloring Books - What FUN!

I have ordered my GrownUP coloring book for my birthday.  I wanted to try one that I could use with watercolors and not just pencils and markers.

My buddy over on the Mind of Watercolor channel of YouTube demonstrates how to use the books with watercolors.

The book is here: Secret Garden

And Steve's video is here:




I will post some finished in 2016.

Remake of Is it a Bag or Box?

So there are many tutorials out there for making treat bags.  I really love this one from Creatin' with Kirsteen.  However, it did not work for me.  I could never get the paper wrapped around straight.  It was all wrinkly.  I decided to recreate this look with my own method.

Kirsteen's Video is at the bottom of this post.

Here is a tutorial video of my Bag or Box?




Here are some finished BOBs

Re-Post February 2013 Stampin Divas

So the continuing saga of the Lost Blog.
Another lost post from February 2013.

We made three cards in February 2013.  The theme was all about quilting.

Treat boxes from Paper Pumpkin and Box or Bag

I found this video from Kimberley Morris where she shows how to make boxes and gift bags from the November 2015 Paper Pumpkin kit.  I love it when my fellow demonstrators find alternative creations from paper pumpkin kits.

You can view Kimberley's video here on YouTube: 

You could make the box slightly bigger by scoring 1" and then 2-1/4", of course it would then be too shallow for that candy she used.  It would of course hold 2 of my pralines.

I also found this great Video from Kirsteen on making a Bag O Box. What is it? A Bag or Box.

Ok here we go with some of our Stampin Diva Classes and Club projects.

I'm Back

All of my old post were lost during the conversion from Google back to NuLink Digital.  So I am going to try and post more frequently and repost some of those old post and videos.

In the meantime you can always visit my Goole-YouTube channel for most of my videos. About a dozen were lost and I am working on getting those re-uploaded. My channel is here!

Make sure you subscribe while you are there.

Beautiful Tiffany and my Orchid

Just a post of my gorgeous orchid that is now 2.5 years old. And you can see my beautiful granddaughter Tiffany in the photo.

First Day Dreamer Necklace

I finished my first Day Dreamer necklace from Jill Wisemans pattern.  Jill is a wonderful designer and creates patterns that are easy to follow.  You can find her patterns and supplies at jillwisemandesigns.com

Here is a photo of the necklace and a picture of how I completed my clasp.

Stay tuned for some Zen Tangles later 

Beading is ZEN like.....

I have started a new bracelet and rope type necklace.  The pattern is from Jill Wiseman Designs.  You will find beads, kits to buy and patterns to follow on her site.  She is really gifted.

I started with some twin beads from Hobby Lobby, however, they are not as uniform as the actual SuperDuo beads that you can find in Jill's shop and also at literally 100s of vendors online and of course in the Etsy stores.

The pattern is very easy and great for beginner level beaders.  Even though I am not a beginner, I am enjoying the pattern.

New Blog for Susan --

Well in June of 2015 NuLink no longer partnered with Google for their services.  Therefore, my original blog and site Susansdigitalworld is no longer.

I am now going to have a new blog devoted to all things that I like not just Stampin' UP.

Since I have many hobbies I plan to post things that I am working on as often as I can.

So here goes......
