birthday card

My youngest daughter just turned 8 so I made her a birthday card.
The fairy was from a coloring page that I imported into Make-the-cut.   I then printed  twice and cut it once normal and once as a mat. Paper is just white cardstock from walmart that was cut and scored to make a card. The coloring is actually an old eye shadow color that I used

Make-the-cut

I have been a die hard SCAL user for a while. However I received Make-the-Cut for Christmas. I have to say " I love it". For one it doesn't crash as often and the interface is a little easier to work with. Though I miss SCAL's benefit, that if the program does crash, it starts where it crashes. Make-the-cut makes you restart the whole design if you haven't saved it. Lately I seem to be bouncing between the two programs. Does anybody else have an opinion or favorite?

Door marker

My daughter started college this year. I made a name tag for her door.
This used the black cricut markers and the basic letter from the Disney  Hannah Montana cartridge. The dragon was something that had been saved from somewhere on the internet for a coloring page (a long time ago). If anyone knows the link let me know, I will post it.

a little behind

i have been too busy to keep up on my new blog, but I'm hoping to change that. Any way I'm will be posting some new ideas this week and hopefully at least twice a week from now on.
