Another Birthday card plus personal update


Today is finally Friday!!! I had a really good week,Jason my finance had taken a vacation from work this week,it was so nice to spend some time together and not worry about work. And did I mention sleep in!!!!!!! So yesterday we decided to go and check out this rubber stamp store around my area, I was glad because I got to pick up some graphic 45 paper. They had so many stamps I thought I was going to loose my mind. It was a great store and the people working there was really nice. So today I have another birthday card for everyone. Again with this card like the last very simple to make and really only took 5-10mins tops. I hope you really enjoy and, remember to have fun crafting who cares what everyone else says if you like it that's all that's counts.

Cutting Chipboard with Cricut

Sorry I've been MIA for a while, first my baby brother started back to school. He is a Senior this years, so we had some prep with that. Then on September 5,2010 my cousin passed away very unexpected. My cousin was only 35,he was very young and will be greatly missed. (RIP Kevin) So I had some family issues to deal with. Now onto this video. In this video I will show you how I cut my chipboard using my cricut. My settings are deep cut blade set at 6, pressure at max, muti-cut at 4 -3 would work, and speed at low.

This was my first time making these types of candles so I went for a really easy one and did it on video,it really on took about 10 minutes to make.

Binding a Halloween Brag Book

Here is a short video on binding using your story by provocraft. Now I've had this machine a few years and this was the first time I used it for the book binding part. I must say it is really easy. I used to carry a soft cover brag book in my purse,of my dogs dressed up for Halloween. Well one day the boys got in my purse and was chewing on the book. So I needed a new one and decided that I was going to use a hard cover. In this video I just show how to use the binding. I plan on spicing up the front cover,just haven't gotten that far yet. Hope you all enjoy!!!!!!

Special Hello Thrusday

Boy I'm getting excited to see what these new Cricut lite carts are all about. I've been reading on the cricut message board and some like and some dislike. I can't wait to see for myself. This is a special hello Thursday, I think i read that these carts are exclusively to wall mart and there is like 24 of them. Now I did see some pics, and know there is a cat one;however in my opinion I did not like. i don't like the paper pups either so that just my thought.
