Vinyl Wall Decor using Sure Cuts A Lot

Hi! Here are a couple vinyl projects I made using my Cricut Expression and the Sure Cuts A Lot software. Both are on the wall in my Scraproom.
This one is on the wall above one of my ribbon storage racks (I will share that another time when my room is clean! LOL).
And this one is on the wall above another ribbon storage rack I have that my DH (Dear Husband) made me. :)

Flower Storage Jar

Hi, just wanted to share a quick project I made. I bought this glass jar at Target for my Large faux flowers (of course I couldn't fit them all in there! LOL) and made a cute label for it with purple vinyl using George and Basic Shapes & the Home Decor cartridges. Very simple and only took a few minutes to complete. I hope you like it!

Look at what I got for FREE!! Glue Glider Max


Ok, well I guess it wasn't technically free but I didn't have to pull my wallet out of my purse! One of the local Scrapbook stores had a "garage sale" at the beginnning of February and I sold a bunch of old & new (new meaning I have had forever but never used, LOL) scrapbooking supplies, tools, storage, etc. The way it works is you price your stuff, they sell it for you at the "garage sale" and whatever $$ you make you get as store credit less 10% to cover their labor and stuff. Well I had a lot to sell and ended up with $225 store credit!! So I bought a bunch of stuff and ordered the Bind-it-All (because they didn't have any in stock at the time) and when I went to pick it up today I saw the Glue Glider Max on CLEARANCE!! It retails for $49.99, was 50% off, I had a coupon (spend $25 get $5 off) and I still had $24 store credit left! After my "purchase" I still have $.26 left store credit, LOL. :) SCORE!
Oh ya! Did I mention I got the Bind-it-All!?!?!?!? Gotta learn how to use it then I will post about it. :) hehe.

30th Bday card

This is the card I whipped together for my Brother-In-Law for his 30th Birthday. It came out very nice considering I made it on my lunch break! LOL I used Simply Sweet for "the", Beyond Birthdays for "Big"and Lyrical Letters for "30". I also embellished a little with some Stickles to give the "30" some sparkle.

Welcome!!

Welcome to my new blog where I plan to share my creative creations made using my Cricut!! I just love making things with my Cricut. It is such an awesome machine!! I started out with the original "Baby Bug" (as most did) and upgraded a year ago to the Expression. I love my Cricut!! :) I love my Cricut!! Did I say that already?? LOL

I will be posting pics of things I have made with this magnificent machine in hopes to inspire others to use their creativity with their Cricut, AKA Cricutivity!
