Valentine's Cards & Boxes

I made these cute little boxes from Sweet Tooth Boxes.  I was a little intimidated, but they actually went together very nicely, and to my surprise, really quickly!  I found that by cutting the tops at 10.4 inches instead of 10.5 inches it fit just a little nicer.

My grandson's card and box.  Mini monsters cart (for the obvious) and A Child's Year for the mat.

My granddaughter's card and box.  Hello Kitty Greetings and Martha Stewart Elegant Cakes carts used.  

!!!!THE HELLO KITTY SET WAS "PROJECT OF THE DAY" FOR THE CRICUT BLOG!!!  

The kids already got them as my granddaughter is sick and missed getting to sleep over.  They were pretty pleased with what we made.

My daughter and I made delicious lemon cupcakes and frosting.  These are some of the cupcakes my daughter (12yrs) made.  They were her first attempt and I think she did pretty good.   I love the little paws on the fish bone cupcake!  lol!

Welcome Back to the Patch!

I made this card for my mother-in-law.  She has been away for weeks caring for her brother and his wife.  She is getting home sick and hopes to be back by the end of the month.  There are 3 pumpkings of different sizes to represent the three of us.   She knows Halloween is my favorite holiday.  I love the bright colors!

It is also for the Cricut Circle Blogiversary. 

I was surprised when I realized that I used so many carts to make this!  I used Sophie for the purple mat, October 31 for the web, Hello Kitty Greetings for the spider, Pumpkin Carving and Doodlecharms for the pumpkins.  I cut and then used a glitter pen to outline the web and the mat.  It looks pretty cool IRL in that it adds more dimension and interest.  I used my Cuttlebug to add the texture to the pumpkins and then added some ink to the raised portion to give them even more detail. The pumpkin in the front is pop-dotted to raise it up, but you can not tell that here.

Many more carts used in my mission to use them all!
