cricut bookmarks

so made time for a little more crafting today as has been a very long time since I have had the time to do some.... I have a terrible cold though and a sty on my eye, often the way after busy with a show for 6-8 weeks.....

Should really be doing my study as amonth behind on that too!

Long weekend coming but a craft fair in town, Dunkleys, that could be expensive!

so here are some bookmarks made with the animal kindom cartridge with the bookmark which is shaped based on each of the animals you can choose, there is also a bookmark with out shapes on top so you can design your own... the last three are made using the bookmark but merging the shadow of other cartridge images, e.g. elmo, pooh and tinkerbell....

cricut golf cart

After remaking lots of cards and using up all my scraps yesterday arvo, i then made 3 new cards, which I have to say was much more fun rather than trying to create things around using cuts and embellishments I was trying to use up.....lets hope I don't hoard any scraps any more....

This very handy golf cart comes with the every day dress up dolls cartridge.... very handy for golf enthusiasts.....

card remakes.... using up scraps

Well I spent the afternoon yesterday remaking, editing and pulling apart some cards from my card box, some I didn't like and some that needed something added. And then making cards using up all of my scraps and precut shapes and embellishments etc... I feel much more organised now without hoarding precut shapes and bits and pieces....

Here are some of my remakes....
