Rose bandwagan


Okay so I decided to join the rose making band wagon and made these using the last flower in the forever young cart. I cut three flowers out at 3". Pretty good for my first try and very easy to make.

4th Treat bags for ladies at work



I made this with the scallop from storybook on pg 50 using the accent blackout cut at 3". I sponged the edges with CTMH white and used versamark for the firecrackers. I used stamp sets Celebrate and July 2009. Thanks for looking.

May card class





These are the cards we made during the May card class. Of course Ms. Joy came up with some wonderful cards again.

new cartridge


I bought the Robotz Cartridge and made some cuts with it. I don't know what I am going to do with them yet but probably make some cards with them.

All star bags



My oldest Grandson Micheal Jr. made the All-stars this year as a catcher so in his honor of making the team I made these for all the players. I used everyday paperdolls for the the players. I cut them at 4 inches. I put gatorade, and some candy in each bag. I made 12 of them.

cube die


Since I spent so much money on these sizzix dies I decided I BETTER use them. Of course I had to blow the dust off of them. I made these blocks and used the Old West cricut cart for the letters. I used creative memories star punch for the stars. I also made the firecrackers out of toilet paper rolls. I used a 2" circle to cover the top and bottom. Then I cut a 12 inch strip and snipped little slits into the strip. I rolled it up and poked a hole in the top and glued it in place.

match box die.





I have seen lots of these posted so I decided to try to make one myself. I made it and gave it to a co-worker at work. She loved it.

WOHOO I made the Cricut Chirp Newsletter!


I made this banner using the new Independance solutions cart and A child's year cart. I used CTMH paper. I was so excited when I found out I had made the Chirp newsletter. To me this is a great honor. Have you seen the awesome, creative ladies that post on the Cricut message board. Thanks Provocraft for picking me out of the 1000's of submissions made. WOHHOOOOO!

Sorry I have been bad

with my postings. I am going to be downloading lots of them right now. So I apologize to my followers for not being a better blogger. I really have been very busy but now in three more weeks I will have a 6 week vacation from my part-time weekend job. This means no more working 60 hour weeks for awhile but I sure will miss the extra cash. We try to take the month of August off because of the heat here in Texas and then we start up again in September. I work for a friend on the weekends doing a consession stand and we go to differant craft shows and festivals thoughout East Texas. Lots of fun and good cash but lots of work. We do 60 to 65 shows a year. We were only rained out twice last year. This year(2010) we have been rained out once and believe it or not snowed out once. So back to my postings and thanks for being a follower of my blog.

spinning star





I made this star using my cricut cut at 8 inches with the stand and salute cart. I then attached the smaller stars using jump rings. I am taking this to work to hang.

easter blocks


I made this using my sizzix die cut of the cube. I used an old Anna Griffin paper pack and Martha Stewart punches. I used CTMH Chocolate ink for all the edges. I used cricut cart base camp and cut the letters out at 3 1/2 inches. I took it to work cause there is no one at home to admire it but me. TFL!

I made this little accordian fold album for Grace so she can put pictures of baby Teagan in there. The album came from CTMH and the papers were from a baby girl pack by K and Company. She really liked it.

Assorted cards




I made these cards using CTMH paper and stamps. I buy paper packs then get scared to use them so I am trying to make myself use them up before they get torn. Thanks for looking.

Baby card for Teagan


I made this card for my friend Grace and soon to be here baby Teagan. I used new arrival from cricut and used CTMH papers and stamps. These are her baby colors.

Thank you cards


I used a pattern I found on the CTMH website and decided to make some cards. I will find her name and give her credit where credit is due. I used CTMH papers and stamps and used 4 x 51/2 cards. Thanks for looking. Sorry for the photo being crooked but that is what happens when your view finder is broken on your camera. My honey Adam ordered me a new one and should be here soon. Can't wait!!!
