Book Marks - using Jumbo paper clips

I found this video on youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y2ww9DDaKA8&NR=1 and bought the huge paperclips at Wal-Mart. They were easy to make. Here are a few I whipped up tonight

Halloween M&M Purse

Small gift for Halloween - perfect for a Fun-Size bag of M&M's. Purse Template from Coluzzle. The EEK stamp is from Stampin' Up. Spider stamp from Judith B-70 collection. Flowers by Prima.

Fluffles holiday Card

I bought this stamp at Michael's tonight and immediately came home and created the card… still going to tweak it as far as the LO. But this is what I’ll be making for some of the cards I send this year. Will probably add some ribbon.

Birthday round spin card

We are taking my MIL out to eat (all her children and spouses) this Sunday for her 75th B-day. I used a Coluzzle cutting template to make this card. Love it! Each spin of the card reveals a different stamped image.

Get Well Wishes

Two folks I know need a little boost this week. I made these cards using SU punches.

Holiday - stocking stuffers

These are made using a short stack of 2" x 2" post-it-notes and a binder ring.
Top embellishments are from JOTS Cricut cartridge and the snowflake is one from a large punch I got from a catalog. (no name)
Hope you enjoy!









1) cut a piece of card stock 4 1/4" x 2"
2) score each short end at 2" (You end up what looks like a book cover w/a spine)
3) lie a small stack of 2 x 2 sticky notes inside
4) fold cover over and take your crop-a-dile and punch a hole in the upper left corner
5) insert a binder ring
add various ribbons to the ring and decorate the cover

Cute gift or stocking stuffer

I was reading the Cricut MB last evening and it led me to youtube. Somehow I ended up on some awesome tutorials by a SU consultant Chic'nScratch. This idea goes to credit of this creative individual. I just tweeked the original video I saw and just had to make these cute Post It Notes key rings gifts! These are the results of a few minutes of quick creations. Nothing elaborate - but wicked fun! I'll be posting the ones I make for Christmas gifts for my family in the next post.

If you buy 2 x 2 sticky note pads - here is how I did it:
1) cut a piece of card stock 4 1/4" x 2"
2) score each short end at 2" (You end up what looks like a book cover w/a spine)
3) lie a small stack of 2 x 2 sticky notes inside
4) fold cover over and take your crop-a-dile and punch a hole in the upper left corner
5) insert a binder ring
add various ribbons to the ring and decorate the cover

6th Birthday - Fairy Mission

I have joined the Cricut Fairy card group from the Cricut MB - this weeks mission was to create a card for a 6 year old boy who likes cars and trains. Here is what I came up with.
Carts used GS , MC and JOTS

Grandparent's Day card

Hello - I used GS cart from Cricuts for the butterfly and the mat. Icicle Stickles on the wings and Uni-Ball white pen to accent.

Happy Birthday Alycia & Benjamin

Made these special cards for them and will take them out for lunch and mini golf!
