Cricut Create a Critter

I have discovered the Cricut! I know some of you are thinking that I am behind the times, but we all have to go at our own pace. I have been blessed because I do not own the machine that has been at my house for the past 8 months. My friend says it's too big to keep at her house. So I have had the privilege of using it. Thanks Rae Jean Bolton!

Anyway, got this really cute Cricut cartridge called Create a Critter online really cheap. The images are adorable and the possibilities are limitless.

This is the hippopotamus image. I printed the sentiment on my computer. Sorry I don't know where I got the dp, its been in my stash forever.

 

This is the zebra image. The dp is from DCWV Blossoms and Butterflies stack. The sentiment is from Close To My Heart Wild Wonders. The sentiment frame is from Gina K Designs All Occasion Tags.

Hydrangea Get Well

Had to use my new American Crafts Chomatix Alcohol Ink markers. I found a set of  30 markers for $19.99 at Tuesday morning and they are wonderful. I have never been able to afford Copics but  I sure am enjoying my Chromatix markers.

The stamp is Hydrangea by Hero Arts.

Psychedelic Anniversary Card

I found some great bargains on paper at Tuesday morning. I got this paper called Feeling Groovy by We R Memory Keepers. It had great flowers and different sayings. I really like it. On this particular card, everything is cut out by hand except for the yellow mat.

Color Combo Challenge

The Mod Squad is having a color challenge. You must use bright spring colors in your card. I am still stuck on spring flowers. I used Stamping Up's Watercolor Trio for the flowers and sentiment. The cardstock and ribbon are also Stamping Up. This is a get well card that a friend wanted me to make for her.

More Flowers

I am just like a lot of other people. I am ready for Spring!! Here is another floral card. I used the flower from Close to My Heart You are My Happy Acrylic Stamp Set. The sentiment is from Gina K's Ticket Trio Stamp Set. I also used Spellbinders Scalloped Labels One Die.
