For Valentine's Day, I made these cards for my three BFF's here at the office:
After I got my Sew Easy tool and lots of cute baker's twine, I sorta went crazy with the stitched edging, and it was on EVERYthing for a minute, there. I got every attachment head that goes with it (unless there are more now, sheesh) when my local scrapbook store had a 40% off sale. I ended up buying each for about 1.50. What a steal! But, I'd still rather have a little sewing machine... we'll see. :)
Here's a birthday card that I made for one of Tom's friends who he hadn't seen in many, many years. I asked him what the guy liked, and Star Wars it was! Here it is:
The inside reads, "He'd say, Happy Birthday!". I had fun making this card, because it was like the old days when I didn't have a Cricut, and I had to make all my dies by hand, free form. I seem to feel more proud of those cards than the ones where all I had to do is glue the pieces together. Whateves, I still adore my Cricut! (FYI: the Silhouette is pretty freakin' cool... is that something I should get?)
This next card is what I made for my sister's 32nd birthday, which just passed. We celebrated at Benihana, and I am STILL thinking about all that rice and meat. MMMMMM! Here it is:
I made the cupcake die from my new Cricut cartridge, Everyday Pop-Up Cards. I have yet to understand the dynamics of the pop up element, but I'll figure it out. I have occasion to send out many thank you cards very soon, and I'd love to do a pop up for that... at least for some.
I'm going to sign off now since I really need to get down to business at work. I'd much rather watch You Tube videos and play in my craft room, but somebody needs to make a little money! The way things are going, I'll surely be back after the beginning of May.
