Dear Lord, what will you think of next? Neat idea. I liked seeing the "inner workings."
Undercover Boss
We knew it was just a matter of time and we would like to announce that next Sunday Undercover Boss is featuring our company. We thought it would be fun to give you a sneak peek at what will be shown and hope you like it. We've got two more days of selling tickets for our Boobie Canvases. If you...
Jeannette - as nervous as you were before filming this video, you'd never know it!! You looked and sounded like a pro! Great job and your stuff is fabulous. Ladies, if you think it looks cool on the blog, you should see it in person.
Cricut and metal
On today's TTV Jeanette Wilson shows how to cut out metal on a Cricut using a Mickey Mouse design. We shot this video when I was out on the east coast for Art on a Limb. Jeanette has been cutting a lot of metal using her Cricut and wanted to share her tips and what's nice, you don't need to buy ...
Oh, most definitely the lake house. It's so beautiful! This is a fab giveaway too Cheryl!! Thanks for the chance to win! Don't tell mom if I win though so I don't have to bring her. She seems to think we ALWAYS have to do stuff together.
Country or Lake???
We've gotten so many emails about our new BRAfree at the Lake that we decided to redo our video. Today's TTV will showcase the new retreat and show the country house also. Imagine you and your friends sharing a yummy meal you've cooked...or brought in from a yummy restaurant... ...
No problem Cheryl. Wish it was just the fairy crappy dust that was my problem. Unfortunately I'm sick and I feel like I died and someone forgot to bury my corpse.
Drab to Fab Name Badges
Today's TTV is all about names. Last week we showcased our name tags and this week we're showcasing badges. For those of you who have to wear name badges at work, we hope this gives you some inspiration to take them from Drab to Fab. Linda Coppolino who owns Little Hat Marketing in New Jersey ...

I love Ice Resin, in fact I wish I had invented it. I guess I'll have to settle for selling it. If you have ever used resins in your art you will definitely want to use this. This stuff is so wonderful it makes you weep. Weep, because you no longer have to worry about crazy bubbles just appear...
You ALL deserve to be proud! Monica of herself and you all as nurturing and inspiring family members.
INSIGHTFUL WRITER
My 14-year-old daughter, Monica, struggles with her writing. I see the struggle. I see it because I can see that she wants her writing to mean something. She hates it when a piece is not so special. I understand. Because I also struggle with my writing. It's not worth it to me to just say phony...

I'm always getting asked if you can do transfers onto our metal...and...the answer is "heck yes." They work great and are easy to do. We show you how to do this on today's TTV. Does this mean that I'll never be asked this question again? "Heck no." I'll still be asked how to do this technique....
Gotta go with Megan's Kick Ass Cool Flower on this one. ;)

Urban Myths Debunked
This is probably my favorite photo of myself. I think I was about 3 or 4 years old and even then thought I should have a crown. Although this one looks kind a "Pope-ish". This is what we will be doing in our class on Saturday at Cat's Creations in Mineral Wells, TX. I call this my Mini-Me class...
I just know the fat man has some spackle around here somewhere . . .
What is Life?
If you've been following this blog, you will know that I collect sayings and incorporate them into my art. Before I started the company I did a lot of mixed media pieces. This is a piece I did from our Guerrilla Art class that we did many years ago. I like to do up a series of canvas, usually ...
