WOYWW & Baby Nipples

UP-DATE TO THIS POST
This did not work for me.... I would not trying it at all....  ..
 
Hi Girls,
Happy  WOYWW're.... It's been a while since I've posted but had the time and though I would catch up a bit.... Can't wait to see everyone posts!!!!
A while back I saw a post were a gal was using baby nipples on the ends of glue bottles and they would not get stopped up.... Here's that post.  You have to watch it......
Will I tried it and here are the 2 glues I used, both of the original caps were split and I had taped them to keep them from drying out;

I liked how it worked with the regular white glue, it did keep the little bit of glue in the whole till you picked it off and was able to use the glue and form a thin line of glue or use the nipple to move it around with the and when it dried it just comes right off.  

But the ZIP glue was a different story all together.... I could not get a bead to stay on the whole so the next day the whole nipple would be dried out, now the glue did come right off  no problem, I tried it 2 more times and the same think happened... so I put my split cap with the tape back on.  I then tried to wright to the gale on the video but never got an answer, guess she was tired of people like me asking questions... but I really wanted to make this work. 

I'll keep using the nipple for my regular glue thow... love how easy it is to use and clean too. 

If anyone else has tried this and knows the answer to the zip glue please let me know. 

Now off I go to check on as many as I can.... hope to see your post!

Every Wednesday JulieDunnit hosts a gathering of crafters from all over the world to share what they are working on with a pic of our play area.  It's really fun to see all the different things people are working on from all over the world and I must say I've meet some very interesting people from Julie's site, Thanks Julie!!!!!!

 I'd like to thank all that stopped by my place and visiting!  I so enjoy reading your comments and encouragement!

I'm a little late posting this but maybe a few of you will still see it.

Last Friday I went to Sam's and saw this Calligraphy for beginners.... always wanted to try this and just never got around to it... this was the right price so I went for it. 

 I've been practicing and can tell I'm getting better but, Oh my do I  need the practice  for sure.  The top left was my frist page.... I just about gave up, but came back a few hours later and tried some more...and found if I get up and do something else and then come back I do better... So that's what I've been doing all week.

It came with a fountain pen but I can't get that to work as good as the flat felt pens I had from CM Years ago... so this week I'm going to find some real Calligraphy pens to try.... 

I'm going to try putting words together later this week... that should be interesting.........

 Well here we are... right in the middle of things.  I've been working on some coloring and still have a few more to do.  I just finished putting the second coat of Glossy Accents on the little boys bubbles.  I have 2 more of him stamped and plan to make a red head and a brunette.  Also have 2 more of the blow fish to color, I know I'm going to make one pink and we'll just have to wing the last one.  

OK,,, that's it. Now I'm off to do some visiting. See Ya :)

First I'd like to thank you for stopping by my place and visiting! I so enjoy reading your comments and encouragement too!

Will here's mine for today;

FIRST thing this morning while it was still dark out.... I was putting the coffee on and I heard this Splush!! noise from the pool.... then little splush, splush, splush's... I ran to the door and there was Belle Doggie Paddling for her life it the FAR end of the pool...

I ran out to the edge were she was in my nightie and called her and just reached her and gave her a little boost up an out.... she ran outside to the Grass and started rolling..... And I had just taking her to get a bath and all that yesterday.... So I went and got her drying towels and she came running and laied right down so good while I dried her off then went and got the second towel to finish her up....

Here's a shot of her after she was mostly dry in the craft room playing in her towel. 

So Cute right!!!!

 And a second shot of the same...

Now you may ask... how did she fall in... will she is not a big fan of the pool... if she can't touch she won't go any feather.. so the top step is her limit...

But this morning is was still a little dark at 6:30am and it had really rained hard last night so we had little frogs out... and she scared up 3 or 4 at once and one must have went for the pool and will the rest is history.....

She is being much more careful with her Frogs now let me tell you......

After all the Dog rescue and the drying and all that I finally finished making the coffee...

Boy was that first cup the best cup of coffee this morning!!!

Will here's mine for today;

I very seldom post much about my family, but today I though it would be the perfect time to share our latest addition to our family!

"Belle"

This is the very first pic I have of her after my hubby picked her up..... Oh just look at those eyes!

Pic # 2... does this look like a dog that gets car sick??

Oh I hope not!!!!

Will here's the story;  back in February for my birthday my hubby asked me if I'd like to get another pooch??? it's been YEARS since my little weeny dog "Tosha" been gone... and then we had my Mother-in-Laws cats... but now all have been gone for several years...

My answer... YES :) :) :)

We had talked about a Beagle for some time now so the search was on. 

Wanted to get one from the Dog Pound, there's so many animals that need to be rescued...

So EVERY Friday we went to our neighboring Pounds ...

Then when my Hubby went up to Ga this last time he stopped by the Vet and there was a flayer about this cute little beagle Belle.  But she gets car sick.... Will it's a 6-hr drive to our place in Ga and we really don't like to drug up our animals.. so the man said we could give Belle a Test Drive over the weekend...so Don took her everywhere long trips, short trips, and no problems... So he went for it and we're hoping for the best on the trip home this week. 

Sorry this is ssssooooooooo long but I'm just excited I guess!!

That's it for me this week, hope you weren't bored.

Will here's mine for today;

I've been working on a few 6 x 6 cards, which is different for me... but needed the size for when this card is opened...You'll see in a min.

This one I used a paper that had Stamps on one side and a deep Red on the other...

 Here's a little closer view so you can see the layers........

And here's the inside.... !!!

Yes it's decorated to match... listed are all 12 months with 6 lines and space to jot down those special dates and names to remember.

There's a ribbon loop on the inside at the top for hanging!

I think this would be a great gift idea for someone special to keep track of all those Birthdays, Anniversaries, and important dates that seam to slip away on us.

Let me know what you think or if you have any ideas!

Will off I go to check out your blog now................

Thanks for stopping by again!

Hope you Enjoyed!!

Will here's mine for today;

I had to make something for Mom to put little gifties in for our Family Get Together this weekend.... so I remembered some little Bags I had and tried to remember how I did them before....

Here they are after I glued the bows on and letting them dry a little before I take some pics........

Here are all 4 finished with bows and all....

And here the inside of one so you can see how I did that...

The bags are 3 1/2 x 2 x 6 3/4 Celebrate It Kraft #1's

I cut 2 1/5" off the top of the bags to make them shorter....

Then I used a Martha Stewart corner punch on the corners and center of the bag top.....

I used K&Company Die-Cut Cardmaking Pad for my outside paper,

I left it 9" long but made them only 3 1/4" wide, then foled it in half...

That's the front and back.. and just taped it to the back of the bag...

Then I just decoreted each one a little different

Add a Velcro thingie to close it...

That's it...

Thanks for stopping by again!

Hope you Enjoyed!!

I seam to make the biggest mess when ever I use powery STUFF.... glitter, embossing, will you get the idea...... and of course it's on every one of my Christmas Cards this year... what is wrong with me???

If you look back at the last 2 or 3 posts on my blog you'll see the cards and things I used.
