Cricut Bow

Top View
Side View
Hello all out there! My daughter is going to a sleepover birthday party tonight. I normally don't keep bows in my house because of my theiving cats (they always end up finding them!) so I usually end up making my own bows to match the wrapping paper. Here's one that I just finished and already put on the box (I know, I didn't even think to share it until afterwards! I'm so sorry). I used my Cricut to cut out the main part of the bow but all the rest is handmade.
Materials Used:
  • Cricut Cartridge - George and Basic Shapes
  • Leftover paper
  • Scissors
  • Glue
  • Pencil

Dragonflies Baby Registry Card


Hi all. Normally, I like to print the baby registry information on the inside of the card because the little inserts get lost too easily, but I just couldn't resist making these little guys for my sister. I've blacked out her information to protect her privacy, but you still get the idea.


Materials Used:

  • White Cardstock
  • Cricut Cartridge - Pagoda
  • Powder Puff Chalking Inks - Amaretto, Green Tea
  • Double-sided tape

Dragonflies Baby Shower Card


This is what I'm proposing to send to my sister as her Baby Shower invites. She's having another girl and her bedding is going to have all these sage and brown dragonflies on them so, I came up with this gem. It's very similar to the dragon one with the tag that's been chalked but, unlike the dragon card, I also chalked the edges pink. :P


Materials Used:
  • Cricut Cartridge - Pagoda
  • White cardstock
  • Stampendous Glitter - Sea Green
  • Southworth Textured Weave Paper - Moss
  • Stampendous Stamp Stuff Embossing Powder - Detail Black
  • Colorbox Ink - Black
  • Powder Puff Chalking Inks - Pink Cheeks, Mocha Mama and Amaretto
  • Hampton Art Clear Stamps - Oh Baby (for saying)
  • Carpet Tape

Been awhile ... I know

Hi all. Just wanted to let you know that I'm now working on not one, but TWO different invitations. One is for my sister's baby shower (should have a picture up this week) and the other is for a bridal shower tea (which, I'm drinking at the moment ... mmmm ... yummy, warm goodness!). The tea invite will be up later this year since the shower itself isn't until May, but, you know me, I like to get things done EARLY! LOL.

Well, have a great day and know that I haven't forgotten about you. I'm working away to showcase new things!

Ta!
