A really easy card made using the New Arrival Cartridge. Since having my daughter I can't stop using this cartridge. There are so many great images on it but the little feet are one of my favorites! I made MANY of these cards as thank yous for all of the wonderful wishes that friends and family sent at the birth of my angel.
After playing around with the Designer's Calendar cartridge I came across this simple clover. I layered it onto some Bazzill cardstock -
Petty Cash. One more layer underneath - a little scalloped circle cut form Mini-Monograms. Throw all of this together and it comes together as a simple little St. Paddy's Day card. I made up a little bag of embellishments that were a variety of greens for my fellow swappers to enjoy.
These creations were made for my daughter's little playgroup friends. Although all of the children are well under a year old, I am sure their parents will enjoy the candies in the goody bags. The lollipop was decorated with a scalloped circle cut from the Celebrations cartridge and stamped with Stampin' Ups 'Think Happy Thoughts' stamp set. The treat bag tag was cut in SCAL.

Curtis from the Cricut Message Board challenged us to create a Valentine's Day card using non-traditional colours. The colour choice was simple when I fell upon this most fantastic black and sparkly paper. The heart is from Doodlecharms and the text - love, is from Home Accents. The edging is a Fiskars boarder punch.
I am continually surprised by how much I am enjoying the Designer Calendar cartridge! The funny thing is, I don't even own it - I just keep borrowing it off my sister : ) I wanted to make up little packages for my niece and two little nephews. I found cute and inexpensive little buckets at Wal Mart that started things off. After gathering all of the fillings for the buckets I journeyed home and cut out both the egg and the text from the Designer Calendar cartridge. I was very pleased with the detail on the egg. Needless to say, the kiddies were excited by their packages!

The shaker card was another for the card swap. The bags housed the embellishments that I was including as part of the swap. The shaker card and the treat bags were designed in SCAL and cut on my Cricut.
These creations are the result of my fist ever card swap. One of my resolutions for 2010 has been to use my Expression daily : ) The cards were cut using SCAL on my Cricut Expression. I love making spinner cards so it was pretty clear that I would have to come up with a little design that would allow for a spinning heart : ) The heart is stamped with Versa Mark and heat embossed with Blushing Pink Pastel embossing powder. To obtain the SVG for the spinner card template click here for the bottom layer and here for the top layer. The stamps used are Stampin' Up, Simply Said and a little heart that I found in the dollar bin at Michaels. I used a Fiskars punch for the laced edges.
