Decorated Message Board

Hey everyone, I've got a new class coming up in a couple of weeks.



We will be making this Message Board. The flowers are super easy and fun to make (and you'll get your fingers all inky too).

The class is Thursday, March 29. Times are: 10:30 am-12:30 pm or 5:30-7:30 pm at Craft Fancy.

Hope to see you in class!

March Cricut Class Cards


It's that time again, time for the next Cricut Classes. So here are some pretty Spring cards. I went kind of crazy with the embossing folders this month. (I just got a new Vagabond and had a great time playing around with it.)

The first one uses the Walk in My Garden cartridge. I saw a similar card on a website and simplified it a bit. I like how the paper peeks through the flower cut out.





The second card also uses the Walk in My Garden cartridge for the flower and the Plantin Schoolbook cartridge for the tags. 




Last month we had a cat card, so this month we have a cute little dog using the Create a Critter cartridge. (This was also a special request from Janet.)



Next up is a Thank You card using the Preserves cartridge. Thanks Dottie for showing me how to double emboss! I'm hooked.




 Our final card is also a special request from Janet. She wanted a card and envelope from one of the card cartridges. This one is from the Wild Card cartridge.  I think I'll do some more of these in the future.




So, whose special request will be next? 

See you in class!

February Cricut Class


Even though we haven't had a very cold winter so far, I felt like using some bright colors for the February cards. So I picked out a bright pink, yellow orange and green (and a little black to make the colors pop) and came up with these cards. 

There are only four cards shown here, the fifth card I'm sending in to to the Cricut Magazine to see if they will publish it, so I can't post it online. You will have to come to class to see it. 

Ok, first up we have a St. Patrick's Day card. This one uses Paper Doll Dress Up and Accent Essentials cartridges.




This cute little kitten is from Kate's ABC's.



The bright tropical flower is from Pack Your Bags. The shape behind it is from Elegant Edges.



The trio of butterflies is from Elegant Edges also.



The mystery flower card is from Accent Essentials.

Hope to see you in class.

It is hard to believe that December is here already! Sorry for the delay in getting these cards posted, I just finished them last night.

I decide to go with a winter theme this month.  

First up a nice warm cup of hot chocolate using the Joys of the Season cartridge. 




Next a pretty blue flower, also from the Joys of the Season cartridge and Elegant Edges.



Then we have a pretty party dress from the Nifty Fifties cartridge.


A jolly snowman from Very Merry Tags. I attached the tag with a piece of string so that it could be removed if you'd like.


And finally some cold snow flakes which are much better than the real ones! There is also a little, ok a lot, of bling on this one too.  The snowflakes are from the Christmas Cheer cartridge.


Class dates are: Friday, December 2 - 10:30 am - 12:30 pm; Thursday, December 8 - 10:30 am - 12:30 pm and 5:30 - 7:30 pm and Friday, December 16 - 10:30 am - 12:30 pm. Hope to see you in one of the classes.

Merry Christmas!

New Cards

I woke up at 5:30 the other morning with some ideas for Christmas cards. So this is what I made.

I used the new Tim Holtz Christmas background stamp from the Seasons Silhouette set. Isn't that background stamp cool? I also used the holly leaves and tree from the same set. The music stamp is from the Mini Holidays 2 set from Tim Holtz. I'm having fun playing with all of these fun stamps and inks.

The pattern paper is from the Making Memories Mistletoe line and the BoBunny Father Christmas Collection.

I'm also really liking the great pictures from my new iPhone.
