January 2013 Class Schedule & Holiday Gift Ideas

Coloring Stamped Images & Stamp Swap

I hope everyone has had a great Thanksgiving time now to start focusing on the holidays. I have started making my teacher gifts and gifts for my husbands coworkers. I have hopped onto the nugget tin train thanks to my friends over on FB. Last night I printed address labels on my imagine to wrap them in before I place them inside the tins. No need to cut and stick papers to wrap them in when you can print your own on labels. I used a combination of Mr. Frosty, Christmas Wish and  Santas Village to do the printing.

Ok onto the January schedule

I am beyond excited at today's Hello Thursday release.

There were 9 new releases today. Anyone who knows me knows why this would be my all time favorite cricut cartridge. My kids nursery was all hand done in Bambi and my son is Peter Pan and always will be. I can not wait to get my hands on this one. I have so many pictures to scrap of him as Peter.

The other cartridges are all great they are:

Disney classics
Best of pixar
Nates ABC's
Pack Your Bags
Groovy Times
3 birds life is a party

and 3 new seasonal minis

I LOVE! My Imagine

My little DD needed a plain sweatshirt for a winter show last weekend. I thought hmmmmm I want to spruce it up a bit since the show is over lets see what my Imagine and my snow friends cartridge can do. Little dd picked this out. I love how the Imagine printed and cut the iron on transfer paper. I also used my Irock for a little bling bling.

Cricut Imagine Demo December 5th 8-10pm

Hi there I will be demoing the Cricut Imagine machine at ACMoore in Frederick MD on December 5 from 8-10pm. We will be doing a make and take along with it. We will be making some simple gift tags from the Snow Angels cartridge. While I was making some tags I also thought hmmmm...... a gift box to put them in. I used the TBBM matchbox and colored it with the Snow Angels cart to make them match, a 3-d pointsettia on top and Viola! Quick, simple and practical from the Imagine.

See you there!

Here is the cards I have been wanting to make. All pieces were cut with the Imagine. This will go even better once the Gypsy can cut with color.

The baby frame I made made as a store display. We used a scrap piece of mat and it was great. I took the mat home and adjusted the color and paper pattern backround to work together. It came out pretty good I think.
