My Cricut Craft Room 100 cartridge Blog Hop

Welcome to the 100 cartridge blog hop Day 2.  We have a lot of great creativity going on today! So glad you took the time to stop by.  Please start here if you didn't already with Erica. Pull up a chair and let's start hopping.  So i was asked to choose 3 cartridges for the hop.  The cartridges i chose to use were Give a Hoot, Gypsy Wanderings and last but not least, April Showers.  I love to make the kids cards and baskets.  This year i also used Plantin Schoolbook and clicked on bag, then italic and cut to fit page.  I used Gypsy Wanderings to cut the bunnies, Give a hoot for the grass and April Showers for the butterflies! I covered the butterflies with liquid pearls and the ribbon is from the fabric section in Hobby Lobby. For the Happy Easter i used Easter 2010.  Cards were cut at A2 standard size.  I thinking the wording was cut at 2 and 2.5.  Butterflies for the bags were cut at 1.5 inches.  The eggs on the bags are stickers :) and of course they are filled with goodies :) Oh how i wish you all a very Happy Easter!!!

Card Sketch Tuesday!

Hi Everyone! Please feel free to join my blog if you would like! Today we were asked to design a card using green and yellow for Erica's Craftroom.  I made a card using the Gypsy and the Easter 2010 cartridge. I cut my card at 4 inches for the height and the inner patterned paper at 3.75.  I cut the bunny at 2.25 inches and I used liquid pearl for the eye and stickles for the tail.  I used my fiskars punch for the grass. Hope you like my card.  Please visit mycricutcraftroom for more projects like mine.  Thanks a bunch for looking and have a Happy Easter!! http://mycricutcraftroom.blogspot.com/

The Letter L

For Erica's team http:\\mycricutcraftroom.blogspot.com we were asked to include the letter L in our post project.  I thought it would be a good time to work on something for my daughter's senior book sense she is graduating in May(yikes!).  Hope you all like it! I used the Plantin Schoolbook Cartridge and zyron so it wasn't messy :) Please leave me some love.

How i got into Cricut!!

For Erica's craft room we are telling our stories about how we got into Cricut for a chance at a sweet giveaway!! I was watching a commercial by PC one day and they were showing amazing projects. My husband looked over and asked if I wanted it. I said no I probably wouldn't use it. Ha. Deep inside I was thinking it was the greatest thing I had ever seen!! Anyway time goes by and christmas is around the corner.  My hubby kept asking me what i wanted.  I said nothing and he said fine you aren't getting anything! LOL i figured he was teasing.  By then i knew i couldn't ask for the Cricut :( . I wasn't expecting what was under the tree!! Oh wow!! Guess what? I opened a brand new Cricut Expression! And that is where it all started. Poor hubby didn't know he would create a scrapping monster!! Teehee. Loved sharing my story with you!! Share yours if you would like. And check out  http://mycricutcraftroom.blogspot.com/2012/03/how-did-you-get-into-cricut.html  for more info!!
