Hi everyone. I can't believe that tomorrow is already the 4th of July... Where have the days gone?
Today I would like to share a couple of cards that I have created using my Cricut. I hope you like them! I also wanted to share a photo of the "end of year" gifts that I made for my co-workers.
This first card was created using the "Nifty Fifties" cartridge and the "Doodlecharm" one. There is a challenge over at Cricut Challenge to show a summertime theme and I think nothing says it better then food! lol! I used washi tape along the bottom and also added a few jewels. My sentiment was created with my computer.
This next card was done using scraps of paper that one of my co-workers gave me after she finished using them. Such pretty papers that I knew I had to use them! I created the circles by punching out 4 circles for each one of the embellishments; distressed and folded each circle in half then formed a new circle with them. My green cardstock is from Stampin' Up. The sentiment is from Create with TLC. A few buttons,brads,jewels and and an action wobble for the hippo and it was done.
The next two photos are what I did with store bought jams. I loved these little bottles (and they were on sale at $1 each!) and knew I could make them look cuter and more personalized. I cut tags and the fruit images out of my "Preserves" cartridge. I don't remember what cartridge I used for the top... I stamped "thank you" on one tag and wrote a message on the second one. I used hemp cord to tie them around the top. They were a hit!
I would like to enter the following challenges:

Come back often and see what's new... " But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect."
