Now to convince my husband...

because I WANT one...

a Cricut Expressions that is.

My sweet friend Jessica loaned me hers to play with for a few days and I am LOVING it!

I racked my brain for a quick project to test out this magic machine (ps cricut is not paying me for this ;0) and I found an Ikea 10x10 mirror and of course some scrapbook paper.

This tree is on the serenity cartridge... I adore it...

A little Mod Podge.

I CANNOT believe how easy that was.

The hardest part was picking out which font to use!

I hear it can cut fabric and vinyl too!

Check out this flower... I am salivating... I need a cricut.

Attention all Cricut owners

Please, I am really considering buying one and I want to know what you think about yours. What do you love? What do you hate? Would you buy it again if you could do it over?

This puppy is not cheap so I would really, really, really appreciate any thoughts on it!
THANK YOU!
(and thanks again Jessica)

Simply Sweet Handmade Cards

I love to make cards. I don't have all the cute stamps which is why I love this card

and wanted to share with all 2 of you ;).

I just cut 8 1/2 x11 white cardstock in half to make the card then I bought these darling "chiptoppers" made by bazzil paper (you can get "thank you" or "happy birthday" or

"merry christmas" etc.) and matching paper.

I cut the colored strips 1 1/2in x 4in and put one of the chip toppers on top.

Don't you love how simple and chic these cards are!

I love the colors and clean lines!

So what are you waiting for... grab your paper cutter and get started!

My sister Melissa and I were busy "creating" during her visit to Kentucky. With babies on the way we thought we would plan ahead and work on some "thank you" cards (missing you Ramona!). This is what we came up with.
