Thanks Mary Fish for the idea to make this masculine birthday card. Here example is HERE...it's much cuter but I only had 10 minutes and none of the stamps that she used :-)

The sentiment & paper I used for the circles was computer generated. The cuts were made using my Expression and the George & BS cart....I really need to get some more punches for easy stuff like circles and stars.

My sister in law asked for help making some quick invites for my nieces birthday and I think they turned out very cute :-) We used the George & Basic Shapes cart for the stars and a SU! butterfly punch....easy peasy!

Our turn to bring soccer snacks...

You know what that means.....dun dun dun....I couldn't just go with a box of capri suns and some oranges....here's what I came up with. Again..."ingredients" to make your own coming soon.

WCD 2009 - We got busy!!

Here's one of the projects from my little craft-a-thon this weekend...I will post the cuts, carts, and other "ingredients" tomorrow :-)

Back to School Display

I made a new INFO TABLE display at work and themed it "Back to School" here's a couple pieces of the display. I used Locker Talk, and Doodle Charms with my CE.

Couple of cards....

I used my cuttlebug folder (swirls) and my cricut for the invitation above, and Stampin' Up! stamps for my moms birthday card below....I also used my newest friend - the nestability shape...can't remember the name but I love it!

Master Cricut List

Just A Scrappin' blog has a list of all the carts with active links to sample cuts and their handbooks HERE. Great for checking what ones you want or even seeing things you didn't know your current carts had!! Thanks Linda!!

Cricut Expression...my friend and enemy!

Ah..I love my Cricut - both of them :-) Mom has the baby bug and I still love using it but the Expression allows me to do so much more and I love that too! But alas, I keep wanting the dang carts! On my wish list now is Storybook, Wild Card, and either Celebrations or Beyond Birthdays....can't decide and haven't had the time to check them both out fully. I did get Sure cuts a lot which is FABULOUS but for quick easy cards and pages I still love the carts!!

For those coming to the crop on May 2nd and 3rd, I will have 2 cricuts and 22 carts to play with!! FUN FUN FUN!

Teacher plaque

It's been a while and I am still learning how to link, upload, etc...go figure, I've been self teaching myself graphic design for 10 years - I've pretty much mastered Corel Draw (current version 14) and am moving onto AI and Photoshop but I can't figure out this stinking blogging :-) I just haven't had enough time to devote to it I think!! But I will get better!!

Here's a fun little plaque I did for a friend that's a teacher (1st grade) Used my Cricut Expression for the vinyl children (welded in DS), and words, flowers (came in a scrapbook pack from Sams Club) and stickles.
