Retro / upcycle business card cases

Made my first 6 upcycle business card cases out if old cassette tapes. These are not stands and not meant to display them. It's meant to carry them. But not more than 5 or 6 at a time cuz they are pretty narrow. Not too hard to do and super cute if you are a music fan and a 90s girl/ guy. Saw it on the "she's crafty" show. It was difficult getting some if the cases apart that didn't have screws without cracking them. You can pretty much customize them however you want. Just need the outside ribbon to be stretchy.

Cricut vinyl and cardstock wall art

Used a floating frame and my cricut to make this present for a friend's sister and husband for a housewarming / Christmas gift. Black is cardstock and is inside floating frame glass. White is vinyl and will get stuck on outside. Not fully completed yet but surprisingly easy!

Upcycle

Yeah, it's been over a year since I posted on my craft blog, I'm a slacker. I'm sure I've maybe made one other thing since then but I've been spending too much time trying to learn how to manage life with my toddler. Here is my upcycled Altoid container , which after completed my husband mentioned that most people use to hide their drugs. Silly innocent me thought that it would be cute for hair pins or jewelry or trinkets....
