I have been testing out my Wild Card Cartridge for my Cricut. Here are some test cards.

This is the I love you.
This is the Thanks. I love the Phrases on the Wild Card Cartridge because I think they cut really nicely. Of course, it would not be complete with out my cuttlebug.

Friends

One of the hardest parts of going back to work is loosing the time spent with friends, my days of chit chatting, coffee drinking, hanging out fun is over!! I really miss doing those things! So I'm sending out some cards this week to remind them that I miss them and they should move the coffee chats to evening!

Oh So Wise!

I am so in love with this card! This has to be the cutest owl ever. It was cute but once I added her bow, she came out perfect! I used the wild card cartridge with my cricut and of course had to line it with a design from my cuttlebug!

Pink or Blue may your dreams come true...

In this case its pink.. not for me of course!! Little baby cards are soooo cute!

Sugar and Spice...

And everything Nice, that is what little girls are made of. My Mom used to say that to me everyday... and it is so true! Girls RULE!! I love pink and purple and all girlie colors in between. They are so pretty to look at. These cards are what my chick's bedrooms look like....

Can you tell I learned to make Flat bows!! Thanks J Love!!


Boys are made from spiders, snails and puppy dog tails?? I think that is the rest of the saying...

So Cute!

I love cute animal cards! They make me smile! Butterflies are just so sweet and pretty to look at.
Googley eyes are the best, they can make anything look so cute!

Birthday Wishes

My sister's birthday is right around the corner, so this year I decided to make her a card instead of the usual text message! I love this card for two reasons, the first is the polka dots. Who does not just love them?? And second, I made this using scraps of paper! Love that. So the next few cards I post I am going to try using up all the strips, circles and what was I thinking pieces to make some more fabulous cards! I used the Stretch your Imagination Cricut cartridge which has really great features.

A birthday card and bad photos!

I realized that I don't like how my photos look on my blog... so I am going to be working on taking better photos! It is my friends birthday so I made this really cute card for her. I also have been working on my bows as seen on this card, and I was given a quick tip from another blogspot.com person thanks Paper Jewels!

My Dream on Paper...

So I had this dream last night about making a card and when I woke up I had a clear image of the card in my mind. I jotted it down because I had to go to work and this is what I made when I got home.




It is a little different than the one in my dream, because the one in my dream was super big and really long, it had many more scallops and desgins on the front! This one is just the right size! (I LOVE the high heel shoe!!)
