'Try it our' Tuesday

November brings on that feeling of Fall for SURE.  This fun card was made using the Art Philosophy Cricut cartridge.  I hardly make anything without it anymore.  It is fabulous. We have stamps that fit right on the images cut with the cartridge.  Notice the leaves.  With stamps that match many of our shapes, you can bring your cut out images to life..  Our idea book is filled with stamp images that work just like this, and will match a shaped from our cartridge.  Come to our Stamp 'N Chat class TONIGHT and make 5 fun cards.  7:00 pm   Email me for details.  scrapwithchrishill@gmail.com

Whooo Hooo Wednesday

When I first got my New Close to my heart Art Philosophy cricut cartridge, I was excited to try to make a few cards.  I had not used my cricut machine much.... so when I cut my first card, it was really small.  I had cut out a white oval 'card' only way to small.  As I went to toss it into the garbage I  HAD A THOUGHT.  Why not cut a black oval 'card' just a little smaller than the white one.  I created this little Halloween card out of a mistake.    I finished it off with letters cut out with the cartridge too.  Whoo Hoo

Now she is just about as tall as her mom. I am so greatful for the art of Scrapbooking and preserving such precious memories throughout the years. What memories are you makin' and preserving today? This layout was made with the Close to my Heart Art Philosophy Cricut Cartridge. Watch for more fun things made with this cartridge in days to follow.
