A little about what started my blog

Well lets see is this going to be a long story short? Or a short story long? I really wanted to start scrap booking all the pictures I had with all the neat stuff there is to scrap with so I started out with albums and paper ect. But then I saw a all day add about the cricut (stay away from the paid advertising Chanel on tv lol)So I checked my local craigslist and found a cricut with a few cartridges for a good price. But well it sat and sat and sat for about 2 almost 3 years but my cartridge collection grew and grew and grew cuz I had to have all the new cute ones that I just loved and was going to use haha . SO Christmas this year my son came to me and said " do you ever use this thing? I would like to make my girlfriend something" So Christmas eve with tow family get togethers and a 3 hour drive the next day to another family Christmas we start a calender for his girlfriend and let me tell you we worked on that till 3 am but it turned out great (and she loved it)So Christmas over Skylor goes back to school and his birthday is coming up so I decide to make him a calender (this one I had a few weeks to work on) and it turned out super great (he loved it 19 and likes gifts made by mom ) So then I realize how much I love to make cards and grafts with the cricut which then led me to want to show off my work so that brought me to all the challenges which brought me to make my blog page.I hope you all will want to follow and see all the neat things I make I always love to get your comments. Thanks for stopping by.   Well lets see is this going to be a long story short? Or a short story long?

  1. Cute! My experience was similar. I entered a contest and won...I fell in love with the Cricut & started buying carts..I found a love for digital stamps and used the Cricut basic shapes. All the while buying carts I had to have.This year I said I'm going to use them more...& so far so good. Look forward to you visiting my blog & seeing what you create.
