More Gypsy Fun


So I created this project featuring the new We R Memory Keepers Travel Light line that we are featuring for Paper Vineyard's design team challenge this week (click HERE to see what the rest of our design team created).  This project also happens to be June's Gypsy 101 class project (Click HERE for the June class schedule at Paper Vineyard).  You will need your UPDATE Gypsy, your UPDATED Cricut and the Plantin Schoolbook cartridge for this class.  Also, be sure to bring your basic scrapbooking tool kit with you including red tacky tape so that your gift bag will be secure to hold whatever you want to put in it... because this one is pretty large!

Along with covering basic functionality of your Gypsy in this class, we will also be covering how to make your projects EASIER to cut and how to cut them up to 20% larger.  This really does come in handy when you're making gift bags!  If you own a Gypsy, this is a class that you're going to want to attend!  Hope to see you there!

And whether you own a Gypsy or not, this week's challenge for Paper Vineyard's DT turned out some pretty incredible projects for inspiration, so be sure to check it out and leave some love!

Past 7 Days....

MY VERY FIRST CRICUT CARTRIDGE GIVE AWAY!

Ok ... so the time has come. I've got some BRAND NEW, NEVER BEEN USED, STILL IN THE PLASTIC Cricut Cartridges to give away over the next couple of months and it starts with one of my ALL-TIME FAVORITES...... Hannah Montana! YAY! I LOVE this cartridge! It's got the most beautiful guitar images along with musical notes and FIVE fonts! I used the regular font and the rock star font to create my Father's Day card this year (see above). I also used the Hannah Montana cart (see below) to create a beautiful butterfly (FREE Gypsy cut file HERE ), and am currently working on a project using the gorgeous solitaire diamond. There's a rose and lips and decorative hearts, even a Pegasus ! There's just so much on this cartridge.... I use it a lot! To call this a "font" cartridge is terribly misleading. It's been a long time favorite and now I'm THRILLED to be able to give it away to one of my awesome readers! So here's how to win: Become one of my follower
