Why do these blog sites have to continually change their format?  And why is my picture sideways with no option to rotate?  GRRRR.  I can only hope someone can see and enjoy my posts now!  At any rate, here are some cards I made for Card Cupids, they will be donated to children and young adults with serious illnesses, in shelters, etc.  The blue/black/ white cards I submitted for a challenge on the storyteller's board, a neat way to think of some new ideas.  The cow I actually made 3 of, this is my first project with my new County Fair cartridge, he is super cute.  I went back later and added glossy accents to the bell around their necks, added a nice touch.

More cards for donation, these were quick and easy using stickers from Mighty $ and stamps, paper and punches from my stash.

A layout I completed for a challenge.  The challenge was to use the word "new", an image of a tree and an image of a bird.  I don't make too many layouts these days so I was pretty proud of this, images cut with Cricut of course.  This is Jackie's new kitty, Kiara.

Here are some cards I made today for some children in need of a smile.  Check out Card Cupid's blog, they collect handmade cards and such for children and others facing serious illnesses.

I especially like those rockin' boys I made with the Teen Paper Doll cartridge, that is a fun cartridge!  I have no idea why the flamingo card is sideways, but flamingos are funny like that.

More Easter treats

I made these cute little jars for my coworkers and for my family for tomorrow.  Totally copied from the 2012 1st quarter Hobby Lobby magazine.  I cut my shapes out of the Cricut and used sparkly pompoms.  Jars were 1/2 price at HL last week and then just filled with candy.

Happy Easter

I am really happy with this.  Jackie and Eric are getting Crockpots for Easter, the bottom is a 5qt and the top is a mini.  Bunny features cut with Slumber Party and carrot is from Simply Charmed.
  
I made the Happy Easter sign for work and brought it home tonight.  Cut on the Big Cricut with the 24" mat it's pretty big.  I think all of these cuts are from the Easter lite cartridge with the addition of wiggle eyes of course!
Jeanette's Easter gift is in this customized gift bag, I love that chick, I think it's from Simply Charmed but don't remember for sure.  Grass was punched with the Fiskar's grass punch.
