Hi! My name is Lori Anderson and I am the owner, designer, and crafts person of Anderson's Treasures. Anderson's Treasures is a small business selling handmade jewelry, handmade cards, handmade scrapbooks and baby books, bookmarks, magnets, 3D decorations, lighted glass blocks, party, wall, and seasonal decorations...and so on...everything is handmade. I have a shop on Facebook (you will find a link to my shop above) and I also sell locally. I have been crafting for years and really enjoy working with my hands. Designing and crafting jewelry, cards, scrapbooks, etc., is a great creative outlet for me. I have great passion for what I do. The pieces have to speak to me. They have to make sense and evoke emotion. I do become attached to my pieces. I love my pieces. I would never craft an item that I would not wear, use, give, or send myself.

Alice In Wonderland Baby Book! ;)

Well, my Cricut Imagine arrived and I am sooooo loving it! ;) I redid the two cuts I showed in the previous post becasue I found a way to make the colors of the characters RGB correct...as Disney made them...also, so if I had two different cuts of the same character...they'd match! ;) I completed the book last Wednesday and am just now getting the pictures posted. I will show the front cover and first page of the book here...and then you will have to go to my Card Gallery Blog (there is a link at the top of this page) to see the rest of it. This way I don't have to double post! ;) Here is the first page:


I left a space to the left of Alice so when the mommy to be decides on a name, we can add it there.


Here is the first page in the book. I thought the White Rabbit with his time piece was the perfect image for the page that gave the date, time, etc. information for the baby! ;)

I make these books from SCRATCH!!! ;) I take chipboard, cover it with paper, add scrapbook paper, bind the book, cut out images with my Cricut Expression or Cricut Imagine, and add other embellishments as  I see fit! I take custom orders so hit me up!!! ;)  As you can see from my blog galleries, I also make jewelry and cards. I <3 what I do!!! ;)


Check out http://andersonscraftytreasurespapergallery.blogspot.com/ to see more pictures of this book soon...I'm still uploading the other pictures...so it may take a little while! ;)

Imagine ~ Alice In Wonderland

I'm awaiting a very exciting package...my new Cricut Imagine! It should be here tomorrow or Tuesday...and I just can't wait! ;)

I am currnetly working on a baby book order...an Alice In Wonderland themed book! I'm kind of procrastinating because I really want to use my Cricut Imagine on it! Alas...it is not here and...I better get to work! Check out this picture of the Alice cut I put together earlier! I used my Cricut Expression and my new Disney Classic Cricut Cartridge.


Here is the "Title" cut. Cut with the same machine and cartridge.


I plan on using both of these cuts on the front cover. ;) I already have my paper selected, put together, and the book is already bound together. I used my Bind It All to bind it. Now all that is left is the cutting out the images and decorating it! ;) I'm on the home stretch! ;)
