B-day Invite's


I was asked to make some simple invites for the Fire Dept. Chief's, surprise 50th B-day Party. Of course I just had to use my Circut. This is from the Paper Pup Cart. The card is smaller 3x3. and I made the perfect sized envelopes with the Enveloper! What an easy and great tool that is!! Everyone loved them. The party was tonight, and he was surprised! So all was good.

What a Face


For this LO I used Storybook cart for the shape and Cuttin' Up for the title. I thought I had a stamp for the swirlys but it was not big enough, so I just drew it and added flowers I cut from some scraps.

This was for a challenge from the Mon Ame Memories site. She has great sales there and a fun forum if you want to check it out. http://www.monamememories.com/

Have you seen the new Fiskars??



What fun are these?? Have you tired these yet? I love the Fiskars Squeeze Punches, my fav's are the circle and scalloped circle. I use them all the time. I just got the scalloped square the other day and to add to my excitement I got some of the clear stamps that coordinate with the punches. I played around a little last night with them and made these two cards. (mind you I am not a card maker) and realized the possibilities are endless the things that can be created with these.
I will be working more with these this week and will come up with a great project for our next class. You gals will have so much fun with these.

Evans Ingredients


My nephew just loves playing with these glasses when he comes to visit. He calls them his Ingredients and named each one. Orange Squid Soda, Yellow Griddle Grease, Blue Oyster Juice, and Pink Jelly Fish Jelly. He is just the cutest!!!

I used Piggy Tales Paper-itsy bitsy spider collection. Black Diamond Stickles. Title is cut with the Cricut - Cuttin' up cart. And the swirls is from Storybook.

Class LO


Here is my example of what we created in class Wed. The paper is Chatter Box. We used flowers, buttons, a little ribbon, and covered chipboard. For the Title, I showed everyone how to used the Cricut and how to weld words with the Cricut Design Studio. The green blank spot is for the journaling that I never got a chance to finish. And in the midst of all this fun we had all the TV's on in the house so we would not miss who got kicked off Idol!! My top pick made it through! Whoo Hooo!!!

Challenge LO


I used Crate Paper-Lemon grass paper
and Glitter Die Cuts.
