JOY

Hi there again! Today I made a lovely Christmas card using a retired paper pack called ‘Mistletoe’ and cuts using the Cricut Art Philosophy cartridge.  I based my design on this week’s challenge over at Freshly Made Sketches.

Here’s the sketch:

A little trick, or pointer, whatever you’d like to call it…I cut out three snowflakes in .2” increments and just scored and layered them to look like a poinsettia. I love my Gypsy, but if you don’t have one, you can always use Cricut.com’s Cricut craft room to design your page/card elements.

 

Just a note for November: when you spend $50 and purchase the SOTM, you can get another stamp set of your choice (excluding personalized) for 50% off! And for every November SOTM purchased, CTMH will donate $1 to aid relief efforts of Hurricane Sandy!

 

Stay tuned for my next installment, and Happy Crafting Everyone!

Give Thanks

I know it has been forever! But, here I am, jumping back on the blogging bandwagon.  The last few months have been really hard on me and my family, so I needed to let the blog go for awhile.
Now, things are starting to ease up for a few more months, so I’ll be blogging more often again!
Today I have a project using the Cricut Artiste cartridge, and the Avonlea paper packet!  The new Artiste cartridge is awesome! This cute mini book came together in less than an hour!

Give thanks book
I am entering this book into this week’s Heart 2 Heart challenge who’s theme is ‘time to be grateful.’ I have so much to be grateful for, and plan on filling my mini book up with pics from our upcoming Thanksgiving trip with family!
