Exploring Cricut Friday Project

Today I am filling in for Lori who is under the weather at Exploring Cricut.  I did a quick card using the cartridges Wedding and Sweethearts.   I used some scraps and added a little bling to make a easy card.  Below the picture is the measurements and materials used for my card.  Be sure to enter the challenge over at Exploring Cricut, just a couple days left.

Finally something to post

I haven't posted in a few days, but I have been working on some projects for the upcoming challenges at Exploring Cricut. I have been battling a bad sinus headache for a few days and my allergies are driving me crazy so I am only doing a little bit at a time. I can't take anything because it all knocks me out! Now for my project today. We stopped at Bath and Body over the weekend because my husband likes some mens body products they carry and the little bag was just too cute to throw out! I am the queen of saving stuff to recycle so I decided this could be turned into a cute gift bag and card with just a little paper scraps and my trusty Cricut. I used the cartridges Pop Up Neighborhood, Walk in my Garden, Fancy Frames, Stamping, Wedding, and Stretch Your Imagination. Below the pictures are the cuts.
