Merry Christmas to ALL.
I'm so glad that I had the opportunity to play with my scrap stash and tools. Seems these days, I'm always purchasing and never making anything.
Glad I had a chance to make some Christmas cards this year!!! Afterall, It's the MOST wonderful time of the YEAR!
Enjoy...
Welcome...
I hope to use this blog to share some of my handmade cards as well as some of my scrapbook pages and maybe a few pics here and there that may or may not make it to a scrapbook page.
Scrapping for me is simply a fun hobby that I don't do often enough. More often than not, I'm a collector of all things scrap... i.e. tools, paper, embellishments...
Now to become motivated... Maybe this blog is just the way to do it...
Enjoy and come back SOON!

Quick, Fun, Shaped...
Can't believe I haven't posted since June... Time sure flies...
To get back into the swing of things, I thought I'd start with the cards I enjoy making the most, SHAPED CARDS! Shaped cards are quick and easy... Plus I had some help with the Cricut Wild Cards 2 cartridge. I decided to make matching envelopes - also compliments of the Wild Cards 2 cartridge.
Enjoy...

Be My Valentine.... CCC # 101
Love is in the air @ Cricut Cardz!!! This week the design team was asked to make a Valentine's Day card using any cartridge and any colors. I made this simple 4.5 X 4.5 card using the Cricut Paper Lace and Ribbons & Rosettes Cartridges.
Funny, I got the heart from the Ribbons and Rosettes cartridge, but I made my rosettes using the Sizzix 3-D flower die cut.
