Cricut Monthly challenge

Hi everyone! Wow it's been quire a while. I have a new project that I made for the Cricut Circle Monthly challenge. Our goal was to use atleast 2 cricut cuts to make something to use on a road trip. I chose to make a puzzle. Let me tell you this was probably the most challenging thing I've made yet! The Gypsy was instrumental in this and even so I had a hard time lining things up. I'm not 100% happy with it but tonight is our deadline so I have to stop tweeking it. I used the puzzle pieces from My Community cricut cart and the turtle cut from the Imagine Nusery Tails cart.

So without further ado - here you go!!

I tried to give it some depth by cutting a thicker material to help keep the pieces together. It was nearly the thickness of a cereal box but still gave like cardstock.

Thanks for looking!

My Cricut Circle blog weekly entry

The challenge this week was to use French Manor and bling or pearls. I was at a local craft store going out of business and they had tissue box covers and I thought I'd like to bling one up for my office. Without further adieu....

Thank you so much for the well wishes on Chip. He is doing much better thank goodness! Back to his onry self! LOL Also my new Imagine machine should be here tomorrow! It's in Ft. Lauderdale as I type and I soooo wanted to run down there today but alas I had to work... :o( All is good because it will be coming to me tomorrow!

Have a wonderful rest of your Monday!

Home tonight...

Hello!

Unfortunately I don't have any crafts to post today but I wanted to hop on here and do a post anyhow. My oldest pup Chip ended up getting bit by something lastnight and had an allergic reaction so I had to take him to the emergency vet  around 9pm. They gave him two shots and sent us home. He did really well till around 5 or 5:30 tonight when those pesky hives started up again. I gave him some more benadryl and they seemed to have gone down so it's just a wait and see thing now. Hopefully they will not return!

I'm going to try to do both of the challenges on the Cricut Circle blog that were posted yesterday so I should have a couple more things to post this week. One thing of note is that I had to ship my beloved Imagine back to Provo Craft(PC) on Thursday because the update killed it. :o(  Good news is that PC shipped the new one out on Friday so it should be here on Tues!!! Yippee!!! I will be back in action with that bad boy soon!

Hope everyone is having a great weekend!! Thanks for stopping by!

Wow it's been a while!

First I'll have to apologize for taking so long to post again. I need to make more of an effort to get on here more! I have done a couple of projects. One that I need to post first is the Halloween card type of thing I made for my Circle Pal.

I used the 12x12 Tim Coffey Halloween stack from K&Company and various stickers from Jolees. Surprisingly I didn't use any cricut cuts!

This is the front of the album

The first quadrant with space for extra photos and a journaling card 

Here there is the same, a place for a photo and then extra as well

In this picture you can start to see the rest of it unfolding behind this quadrant (also I think this one was my favorite one hehehe!)

The final page.

This is the view from the top. See how it opens up to make quadrants...

Here is a picture of me with my new Cricut Imagine!! Can you tell I'm in love?

Even the boys were excited!!

A few of the cards I've made so far. 

Thanks for looking. I'm going to attempt the update on my Imagine tonight and hope all goes well then I will be back in action! Have a great night! BTW I'm down another 3lbs! Yipee!!!

Happy Saturday!

Good Morning everyone!

I hope today finds you just as happy and healthy as I am. I wanted to post a pic of a Thank you card that I make recently. I actually made two of them with the same theme but different colors, unfortunately I only took pictures of one of them. This is from the Create-A-Critter cart...

I added some stickles to the middle of the flowers and the center of the bows to give it some shine since it just needed a little extra touch!

The inside is lined with white paper and I cut the words "Thank Ewe" in pink. I hope you like! I think I'm off to make more cards today. There are quite a few birthdays in Sept!

Whoohoo!

Yay! I'm down 2.6 lbs today!! Love it and feel so much better now that I saw that. Lol just have to stay good this weekend. I can do it though I can be strong and will! Fish tacos do sound really good today hahaha

Take care all and enjoy the weekend everyone!

Finally some crafty stuff

Ok so I figured out to load pics I have to do it from my home computer lol So here's a few cards i've done. None of them are really that new and some of you have seen them already but the newest ones I've done are on my phone and I have to get them off of it before I can post. Ü

These were some of the Valentine's day cards I made this year.

This is a card I made for my BFF Dawn.

And this is the card I made for my honey for Valentine's day because he likes pirates. LOL the inside says "Ye stole me heart valentine!"

That's all for now but I wanted to get some crafty stuff on here for you since I've been all about the working out part lately. Have a great day everyone!

BTW DIRT was killer lastnight. I totally didn't go at 6am this morning because I was really sore LOL I also didn't sleep very well - I was hot then cold then hot then well you get the point LOL Lots of water today!
