Fabulous sister

Yay, I got something done. I love the Forever Young Cricut cartridge, but haven't used it nearly as much as I would like. This is a card I made for my sister. She recently had surgery and I just want to cheer her up. She is the most fabulous sister anyone could have. I cut the woman at 5" and the words at 1".

I also went to Michael's Craft Store today and was able to pick up a few cartridges for $9.99 on clearance. I got Cuttin Up, Stand and Salute and Winter Woodland. None of these cartridges were on my wish list, but I figured for $10 I couldn't lose. I know there are at least a couple things on each of them that I will use. I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. It was my birthday on Friday and I started celebrating on Thursday so I've had a fantastic 4 days. Take care.

Updated Circle Calling Card

I've updated and changed my calling cards a little bit. I still have a lot to make before October so they may change again. I have my name, blog address and other information on the back. I'm so excited to go to the Utah Swarm in October. It will be my first ever swarm, first time flying without hubby, first time going to Utah and first time attending a Circle Event. I can hardly wait, but I have a lot to do to get ready before then.

Cricut Circle Calling Cards

Anyone going to the Cricut Circle Swarm in Utah? It's only a month away and I'm trying to come up with a calling card to hand out that represents me. My Message Board name on the Provo Craft message board is CindyLouScrappinWho. The above picture shows 6 different cards I have come up with. Please leave me a comment and let me know which card you like the best (or if you don't like any of them). I will add my personal information on the back of them before handing them out to other Circle Members that I meet in Utah. Thank you for looking. I look forward to hearing what you think. Cindy

Sick Chic

I made this layout of my niece Brianna. She had come over to visit on her birthday and wasn't feeling well. Poor Bri. Not the way you want to spend your birthday. I used Create A Critter for the sun and chick. Stretch Your Imagination for the tree and I used Forever Young for the words sick chic. I also used A Childs Year for Happy Birthday. Wow, I didn't realize until just now how many cartridges I used on this one layout. That's the really nice thing about the Gypsy, you don't have to worry about swapping out cartridges so it makes it much easier to use as many as you want.

16th Birthday Card

This is a birthday card I made for my niece Jasmine. I used the Forever Young cartride for the front and the Childs Year cartridge for the font on the inside. The eyes in the word LOOK are from Graphically Speaking. I thought they were just too cute to pass up.
