Party invite


A friend at work wanted to make invitations for her daughter's birthday party. Well, as soon as the Cricut lovers in the group heard that we immediately jumped at the chance to help. A group of us came up with these and we created them over a couple of lunch hours, it was really fun and they turned out pretty cute, too!

Weekend projects



I did find a little time to work on a couple of projects today. The card is made with PTI stamps, a total scrap lift from their gallery, I made a couple as I thought the deer was cute and the saying clever. The envelops were totally my creation, I am quite happy with them. I was inspired after looking at some new scrapbook paper by Canvas Corp that is Kraft with dark brown designs imprinted on them. I took a plain brown bag I received from a shopping trip and cut it into 2 -8" squares, stamped the squares randomly with chocolate chip ink using stamps by PTI, and folded them into these cute envelopes using my Martha Stewart score board. I have been making envies like crazy lately. Thought these were fun.

CHC bulletin board


So long since I have posted, not much crafting this summer I guess. Melissa and I finally got that bulletin board up today, wow, it looks pretty good if I do say so myself. Just a few more pictures to add.

Happy Father's Day


Jeanette made this card for Wayne, it's hysterical. The muscle man is from the Carousel cartridge. She thought he needed pants and a shirt so we cut the image twice more to make muscle man have some clothes. Muscle man Wayne is holding a cat (Simba) and a giant chocolate sandwich cookie. The "DD" stands for "Dino Dad", a nickname Jeanette calls him by.

Dad Card


My take on the Cricut Circle Weekly Challenge. Cuts are from the Father's Day Cartridge (except the banner), all cut and sized on the Gypsy to fit on A2 card base.

The take out boxes were from Walmart, diecuts all from Cricut/ Gypsy using George, H2O, Just Because Cards, Luau, Mini Monograms, and Summer Vacation. Now to decide what to fill these with, we leave for NY in 2 weeks!
