"Rainy Day" card using Create a Critter



This is a very simple card to make especially on a rainy day when your feeling dreary, lol. Duck is cut out at 3" and Rainy Day is cut at 2". I used K&Company paper stack from Michaels for the layer of my card.

You Wind Me Up Card



I made this card using the Robotz Cricut Cartridge and I cut the robot out at 3.5 inches and placed on an A2 size card. The robot that I used is on page 68. I used a stamp set from Michael's and StazOn Jet Black inkpad! You can view the video on YouTube ScrappinJen31 channel.

Beach Bum Scrapbook Page




I used Sure Cuts a Lot 2.0 to weld the letters to my words together. It is much easier to use this program than it is to paste each letter individually. I used the Font from the Life's a Beach cartridge!

Hello Kitty Mini Notebook



I made this 3 1/2 by 5 notebook for my daughter. She is learning how to write and she loves to scribble and "draw". I thought that this would be something exciting for her to have and I making it myself for her makes it even more exciting :)

Anniversary Card using SCAL 2.0 and Sweethearts Cartridge



I used (Sure Cuts a Lot) SCAL 2.0 to cut the rings out at 3 inches and I cut the "Happy Anniversary" out at 2 1/2 inches. Today is our 8th Wedding Anniversary so I decided to make him a card. I have never made him one before, I hope he likes it!!

Silvermist Scrapbook Page, Tinker Bell and Friends



For this scrapbook page, I used the Tinker Bell & Friends Cricut Cartridge, I cut the Silverist out at 3". I also added 3 prima flowers to the page just for something extra. I usually do not a whole lot to the page because I want the pictures to be the focal point!

Hannah Montana Card




For this card I used the Hannah Montana Cricut Cartridge. I cut everything out at 2inches. I also used the card idea from Yoliebean.

** New Cartridges ***

Yeah! My free cricut cartridges came today. I ordered the Mini Monograms and the Stampin' Solutions cartridge. Only had to pay $11 to have them shipped, pretty good deal considering what one has to pay to get the cartridges to earn the reward points! Heads up for those that are not familiar with the cricut rewards. Any of the newer cartridges, such as Create a Critter come with a rewards coupon and you can redeem them for points at www.cricut.com/rewards once you earn enough points you are able to pick from selected cartridges/apparel/cuttlebug folders and you only have to pay for shipping!! I am looking forward to using them. Tomorrow I plan to make another You Tube video using the Hannah Montana Cartridge to make the "Yoliebean" card. This is the "layered" card that I have posted on my blog with the ladybug and the frog!!!

Mother's Day Note Pad/Forever Young



I made this sticky note pad for my mom for Mother's Day. She always has sticky notes in all kinds of places, so I decided that this would be a great gift idea. I used the Forever Young cartridge.

Create a Critter/Cricut Design Studio



This is the first time I have cut out an image and used it as the card instead of applying to the top/front of the card. It was very interesting and fun to create! My son loves to fish and we just had the opening to our fishing season here so it's perfect timing!

Create a Critter/ 3 page card






I would like to give thanks to Yoliebean for this card. I recently viewed a YouTube video that she did and when she went to make the card, the score didn't work correcltly and she turned her card into a multi-page(not sure how to word it)! It is now my favorite way to make cards!!! I used Create a Critter and cut out everything at 2 1/2 inches!
