Just For Fun

Well... a couple of REALLY cool finds online about the cricut. This upcoming Provocraft Gypsy giveaway (my blog post from the other day)has got me in the mood to make! So the card that is posted here is inspired by a really great YouTube vid... you can check it out here. This lady LOVES the cricut..... and can we blame her? :)

I didn't have the Provocraft Cricut cartridge that Robyn used in her video, so I used the Cricut Cheat Sheets that I printed off from the CricutCheatSheet Yahoo group to find a different scalloped circle. I ended up using a blackout of a flower that is on the Storybook cartridge. Really folks... you ARE only limited by your imagination! hahahaha!

Quick note: don't forget to tune in this upcoming Thursday, Sept. 24 starting at 12:01 a.m. The Gypsy is making it's big debut on HSN (check your local listings). Festivities will run throughout the day. Also, the Gypsy give away that I mentioned before... check out the Cutting Above blog for details on how to enter. This great blog just launched and it looks like they are going to take the craft world by storm... giving away TWO Gypsies.. that's just so great! Good luck to everyone!
