 Lynn came over to check out how and help make Don's bd card,  Cricut works, she is a stamper, and now has an idea of how it works, thinks it is intimidating, but so did I. Had great help from the ladies on the cricut board...

 My first cards from in the Cricut craft room

donation cards

good morning to all,  My daughter is graduating  from high school in a few weeks. Every year the school asks for donations to be given away at the party for the kids following their ceremony.  Suggestions have been gas cards, laundry supplies, stuff they will need in the real world. I am not even sure if they want these but I am ready if they do!!! I will add pens and stamps to the gift basket if needed. I tried to think of things that kids would miss when off to college   like home, baked goods, a washing machine,,,it was also a great way to use up some of my scraps.  I left them all blank inside for writing room.

    

for Ashley

good morning to all.  I remember not to long ago reading that Ashley loves being a farm girl, so I had to include  it on her birthday card,

birthday card

good morning to all, I am not sure who will be getting this one, just know I have a lot of birthdays coming up and with this long winter we have had, I know I will want to be out side... so I am making them in advance.

anniversary for the in laws

Hi all, it have been a drippy gloomy today, a good day to stay in!
My in-laws are coming up to their 60th wedding anniversary in a couple of weeks, thought I would get another June card done.   I had to go all out country/farm, even in their 80's they are die-hard farmers, gramps scooting around in a golf cart they got him a few years ago so he can get around and gramma moves around to keep from getting stiff (like she would say it) Since farming is their life, that is the type of card they will get!  it folds to a 5 1/2 inch square card. I put it onto a flowery background, because they both love their flowers.

grab and cut #2

good morning to all,  well we did not get the 4 to 8 inches of snow yesterday like the weather man was talking about, but it was a nasty slippery day. It is snowing like crazy once again and the snow might have been delayed a day.
for this card I did ask my daughter to pick a cartridge and she choose Country Life... the girl on the tractor and the tractor must be red! I am also using only scraps for these cards and glad to be doing it that way.

cards # 3 and 4

good morning to all, I had this saved on my DS and made 4. Need to restock my note cards and who doesn't like a cool chick! the one on the right lost its leg so I added some grass to cover it up!

 I took Jacob's card apart and will add this one to Ruthann's basket....

2 more sympathy cards

these cards are going out 6 months late, but I just found out about a church members husband/fathers passing. between not getting the paper and not attending church most of the summer, I totally missed his passing. And yes I feel bad about it.
