Baby Boy Mini Album

I made this mini album for a dear friend of mine from work who is expecting her first child in July. Sadly I will be moving on to a new job and I really wanted to give this to her before I started next week.

Mother's Day Card using Mother's Day 2010 Cartridge.

I used the new Mother's Day cartridge for the word Mom, Gypsy Wanderings for the scalloped circle frame, Don Juan for the card shape with the circle cut out, and a Martha Stewart border punch. I absolutely love this paper pad that I found at Tuesday Morning this past weekend for 1.99- Wild Raspberry by K and Company. I got a few great deals there but I am really loving this paper.

Here is a mini album that I finally put the finishing touches on. All shapes were cut out on the Cricut- it's been such a long time since I started this that I have forgotten all of the cartridges that I used- but it's finally finished.

Green Stack Birthday Card

This simple card was made for Grandpa Frank's birthday- he's a nature lover and I thought the papers were perfect. The only Cricut I used was Don Juan for the font and Accent Essentials for the Top note shape. The "ribbon" is actually felt. It's nothing fancy because he probably won't even notice that it was handmade. :)

Birthday Gift Bag

The Cricut message board posts a one hour challenge every night and I decided to join in tonight. I've had these wooden gift bags that I got at Michaels for a while now so I thought I would embellish one tonight. I used the $4 Cosmo Cricut stack from Michaels, some $1 ribbon, and cut the cupcake from the Celebrations cartridge. The tag is a Cuttlebug die and the sentiment is an American Crafts rub-on.
