The Ten Cricut Commandments According To Sunshine!

1 - Thou shalt only Cricut on day's that end in "y".

2 - Thou shalt not feel guilty for spending the house - keeping money on Cricut stuff.

3 - Thou shalt cross off 'sexy lingerie' from Santa's Wish List this year, & replace it with "Cricut stuff".

4 - Thou shalt re-assure the husband/boyfriend/wife/partner that they are truly loved just as much as the Cricut machine.

5 - Thou shalt prepare a sermon all about the joys of a Cricut machine to be read at church on Sunday.

6 - Thou shalt inform the local Power Company that one's health is dependant on the power. No power = no Cricut = :-(
7 - Thou shalt neglect to do housework & other menial chores in favour of playing with your Cricut machine.

8 - Thou shalt send the kids out to work at McDonalds as soon as possible to help pay for new Cricut stuff.

9 - Thou shalt forgo sleep in order to Cricut 24/7. (Sleep is an optional extra)

10 - Thou shalt send all one's friends something made with the Cricut machine in hope of converting an ordinary housewife/husband into a housewife/husband who loves to "chirp"!

11 - Thou shalt have FUN!!!
(No 11 was an after thought!)

I wrote this at the beginning of the year when I got my Cricut & quickly realised how much FUN it was! These "commandments can also be applied to other tools, such as Cuttlebug or whatever floats your boat! Ok, so there's no PICTURES...but I did make a card today which I will post next!! Have fun! (I love my Cuttlebug too!)

Heart Card - Cricut - Inside View

Ok, so here's an inside view of the heart on the card below. (next photo)

I stamped 3 tiny daisies & the words, "Hugs & Kisses" 445B by Penny Black. I left the inside of the card blank.

Ok, that's it for today, I'm outta here...:)

Heart Card - Cricut

Well, it's 7.42pm Friday night & I have just finished this card! :) I cut out a red heart @ 5 inches, & a white heart @ 4 1/2 inches, using my Cricut machine. I used the "mirror" feature, so the heart opens. (As you can see in the first photo, the one before this.) I stamped the words - Timeless Images F6 Heartfelt - using Stampin' Up Real Red ink.

I glued the 2 red flowers where I wanted them & added white brads in the corners of the card. The card has a red insert inside.

I added some gold elastic mainly to keep the red heart closed.

Cricut Card

I made this card using my Cricut machine. (Flowers & words).

The colours (pink & blue) are quite pale comapred to what they are really like. Too much light when I took the photo :(

The gold corners & tiny hearts are stickers.

The pale pink card was a new colour (Baby Pink, I think!) from a company in NZ called Stamp Zone.

I must get some more of this card as it is quality card & a really pretty colour.
