Hi Everyone :)
I was just checking out HSN (a sure fire way to get in some trouble!), and saw that throughout the day on Thursday, they will be having some great deals on scrapbooking/crafting stuff. They are also having a super deal on a the 6x12 size Cricut that is packaged with some of the new Cricut cartridges coming out (I'll also post info on those soon). Be sure to check it out, if for no other reason than to get some good ideas. Hope everyone had a chance to craft today!

P.S. Post of new project coming soon!

New Project (finally!)

July was such a busy month for us. In between our vacations, we managed to squeeze in attending my nephew's 1st birthday. The theme was underwater. So I made this surfboard sign. Here are the details:

Carts : Ocean of Words, Mickey Font

Materials: Deep cut blade, 12x24 cutting mat, moss green cricut marker, yellow poster board, 12x24 bazzil blue cardstock, white cardstock, Crystal Stickles,

Sizes: board @ 23 1/4", waves @ 23 1/4 ", letters @ 1 3/4 (paper saver selected)

I outlined the letters with a moss green colored Cricut marker to give the letters a little dimension.

I inked the entire outline of the board to give it a little color.

I also outlined the top of the waves with Crystal colored Stickles.

I like making useful projects, and if I can make them in a different shape, that's even better! This was my first time using the larger mat. I hadn't really used the deep cut blade, either, so this was a bit of an adventure for me. I was really excited to have it work out. I made sure to use the settings listed on the Cricut website. This could be made smaller to use on a page or would be a great card cover. You could also weld a couple of surfboard shapes together (using design studio) to make a surfboard shaped card. Hope you like this project. And hope everyone had a chance to craft today!
