Look what i've been up too.

Okay,  I haven't posted in a while but I am so excited about some of the new things I created.  I changed my Valentine wreath to a St. Patrick's wreath.




I bought a cuttle bug and just love it.  I made a cool card for the fall.




I made a wreath to raffle off to help a coworker just diagnosed with breast caner.  My prayers and support are with her.

I also made thesse earrings with acrylic and crystals.

cricut makes me "smile"

How do you like my new card?  The different shades of green are off in the picture but it is still cute.  I think I will round the corners of the card.

wreath is finished

I finished my wreath with the flowers and it is hanging on my door at work.  I love making crafts.  I need to make something for my daughter for Valentine's Day.

~great day~

I am so excited.  I had a great day off but the weather was cool and raining.  The high was 38 degrees.  Yuck.  But I accomplished a lot of stuff.  I dropped the PTO books off at the high school, drove into town and went craft shopping.  I did not buy too much.  I bought the ATG gun that I wanted.  Lyc came home and I cleaned up the house.  Well not all of it but I did quite a bit.  The kitchen looks pretty good too.  DIshes are being washed, a load of laundry in the washer and I am going to finish cleaning the beadroom before I go to bed.  I have to do school work tomorrow but I am sure it will be another great day.  Here is a picture of my new ATG gun and the wreath I made.  The wreath is not done yet.  I still want to put flowers on it but without making it that I can't change the fabric in the wreath itself.  Still waiting to see if I won the cricut bug.

 
The wreath has Valentine candy on the fabric.

"Cricuting" and loving it.

Two new cards I did yesterday.  They seem to lack something, maybe a stamped quote or embellishments.  I did not like that the serenade cartridge showed pictures of birds with swirls but I could not get the machine to cut the swirls in the layer.  I had to make a swirl and glue it to the bird to get the effect I wanted.  I am off to sleep now then up early and traveling to the craft stores tomorrow.  I can't wait.

I am trying to win the stuffed baby cricut bug from my pink stamper.  It is so cute.
