Flower Pot Cards


After I bought my Cricut I wanted to make the flower pot cards that I had seen on the internet but was a little overwhelmed by the challenge. So one day I buckled down and made two of them. One was a birthday card and the other a thinking of you card. I really enjoyed making these and think I will be making more in the future. The ladies seem to love them. I used the Walk in the Garden cartridge by Cricut.

Simple Birthday Card



I made this birthday card for a male relative. It is amazing, I had a very difficult time trying to create a card for man rather than a woman. So, I stuck with a simple layout and was very happy with the outcome.

My first card


I made my first card using my Cricut. It was time consuming but I enjoyed every minute of it...even gluing all the little gold paper saddles to the reindeer. I used the Cricut Christmas cartridge for all the diecuts. I added iridescent ribbon for an accent. The card measures 8 inches wide by 4 inches tall.
I am new to the blogging world. I wanted to start a crafting blog to help me keep track of my projects and hopefully inspire me to explore my creative side.
