It has been a minute since I've posted anything... I guess life happens, and what can you do? :) The first card, "Bun in the Oven" was made in bulk for my cousin Jazmine, she's having a baby shower in October, so I had to get those out. I simplified my original design, but also went to town a bit more with the bun, used my Cricut for that part. I actually drew the oven and cut it out, manually did the oven outline and the inside... that was the most time consuming part. On my original card, there was another button/star/ribbon embellishment, but I just didn't have the time. I'm happy with it.
Second card is "Cool Chick". I've had the opportunity to be up close and personal with some chickens lately, and I have to say, the one I made with my Cricut is WAY less scary. Chickens move quick, and I just don't trust that... their door opens, and all of a sudden wings are flapping. Not cool. :) The card was simple, and fun to make... I used some of the square cards I got in that huge eBay score recently.
Third card, "Let's Eat" also came about organically; I had eaten Ramen the night before, hence the noodles. Who'd a thunk it, I'd actually have the means to make a bowl of noodles??? I'm excited to get back to my cards in the not too distant future, maybe get a few more Cricut cartridges, who knows? I have very little free time these days, and when I do have some, I am usually tired tired tired. The plan is to get back to one card per week, the one card per night thing just isn't happening anymore. I can't let my ideas get too stale. I have one on deck that was so kindly given to me... it involves a few more chickens and a spilled drink. Not my own idea, but hey, I'll take it any way I can get it. :)
Until next time, don't hold your breath... Mama has thangs to do. ;)
