I found this Chicken card on the Cricut Message Board and so I created one of my own. Took most of the morning to come up with this. Hope you like!

Love Butterflies

2009-05-22T20:53:00.002-05:00

Today I saw my first dragonfly. I could almost pick it up but it flew away it the beautiful sunshine. Today I made another butterfly card. I just love butterflies either paper ones or the real ones.

Spider Mesh

2009-05-15T22:26:00.002-05:00

I really like this Indie Art cart so i've created this monstress spidermesh. My cricut expression took a dump and I had to send it back to the company after having it for only a month. So this hasn't been tested but it looks it could be quite delicate to cut. Hope you like the screen shot.

My cut files

2009-05-12T18:18:00.003-05:00

ALl my cut files have been deleted as I would love to have comments and would have loved to see what was made with them and been given credit. From now on when I post a file I will leave a link to the cricut message board where you can send a private message to me for my file with your email address. I work hard at creating these and would just like hearing feedback.
Have a great day!

Out of Season

2009-05-05T20:38:00.004-05:00

Saw a design on a t-shirt so I created this spooky cut file. I used Paperdoll and blackletter carts and DS to create this.

Enter At Risk

Cricut Expression

2009-03-28T07:11:00.002-05:00

Yesterday I got the Cricut Expression and I'm loving it. It sits on top of my computer desk to remind me to create something. But I gotta work this weekend so hopefully I can add a new card before going. Here is one I did a couple of days ago. Working at a used retail store sorting things I see alot of creative things so I get my ideas from. This card is made from seeing a snowbunny standing on top of a beehive as a music box with It's a Small World. I ruined the eyes after I finished my card but the idea was cute. It's using PPDU cart and Walk in my Garden and DS. I need to make another!

Spring Card

2009-03-23T22:17:00.003-05:00

I have been doing alot of checking out other blogs and came across Pez-A-Doodle site and she has a card sketch and so I've come up with a spring card. It's a bit hard to see but the lace is done with my cricut using the camp out cartridge and the accent is from Storybook cart and the tag from George. The stamps are from SU "Easter Blessings" which is discontinued. Hope you like.

Star Card

2009-03-21T20:28:00.002-05:00

Here I created this card awhile ago. A Card I was learning how to weld shapes together. The middle can be what you want. The words are cut and I added a mickey mouse for my design. Enjoy!

Shoe Card

2009-03-20T22:15:00.003-05:00

Made this shoe card this morning. One of the blogs I followed had done one and I can't remember which one but I loved her work and had to scraplift. But of all things I had to go out and get the wedding cartridge so I could design such shoes. I used Sparkle Clear Stamps from Hero Arts for my word and accent. Watch for more shoe cards. Enjoy!

Stanley Roper

2009-03-08T18:00:00.004-05:00

Here is a page I did at a crop one night of my cat, Stanley Roper. I really liked the way it turned out and the words I found to add to my page. The page is done on white cardstock. The green and filigree aren't a part of the original page. Was a fun page to create.

Finally got my cards printed and here they are. These are popout cards and staircase card. Enjoy!

Square filigree

2009-03-07T20:52:00.004-06:00

I've made this filigree that could be added to a scrapbook page. Its a square and a nice picture would be great to add or some other embellishment. It's too big for a normal size card but could be used for a square card. I made it with storybook cart. I cut it out and it came out very nicely.

Finally got something I can post

2009-03-07T20:36:00.002-06:00

From cardmap site I created this card. I really like the butterflies on the cartridges that I have. This is is from storybook. Here is the card I made. Hope you like.

Blog changes

2009-03-07T10:19:00.002-06:00

I hope this is better for everyone to see. I love the different backgrounds on everyone's blog but mine just really seemed messy and so unorganized. I want to be able to get around and see what's everyone doing. LOL I think I'll be able to now. Have a great day!

2009-03-07T00:56:00.002-06:00

Ha, teaches me to believe the weather man. It was cold and windy here but the snow is melting, (just not fast enough). We had a little sunshine in the afternoon. I got my running around done this morning and got busy creating. I just gotta make more flat cards so I can use my scanner. lol Maybe tomorrow I can get these pics printed. I want 77 degree weather so I can be outside taking pictures again. Winter's been too long in Wisconsin! Keep watching I'll be posting pics soon.

Day Vacation

2009-02-07T20:35:00.002-06:00

Today a friend from work took me to visit her sister for the day. Got to visit her little town and a little scrapbook store. They had some very nice scrapbook papers that I got and hope to get to go back at a later time this year where I can spend more time. It was a nice break from home life and from my little town. I got some ideas to create with my cricut and DS. I'm off to creating so have a great evening!

Searching for something

2009-02-03T10:16:00.001-06:00

I'm looking for a song for a friend and it seems it's not on the web. The song is called " The Vows of Lincoln Audrey" would love to know who sings it and who wrote it.

Morning off and time to create

2009-02-03T08:34:00.000-06:00

I've cut the square scallops and this is what I've come up with. I used a brad to keep it all together. I think it makes an interesting design and hope to see what others can do with this. The .cut files is here http://www.4shared.com/file/83897323/661ad699/ScallopSquare-gabs-FernB.html

I'd rather be home and play with cricut

2009-01-31T07:29:00.000-06:00

Sigh, I am glad for a job but I'd so much rather be home and create. This is what I did for my son for his book reading of the Twilight series. It is done with the DS using paper doll, and animal kingdome cartridge.

A Happy Birthday to Someone

2009-01-29T06:50:00.001-06:00

Son needed a birthday card for a friend and this is what I came up with. This is done with the Paper Doll cartridge. Son did the face. I think he did a great job. He's so into the Twilight seris. Have a great day!

Just Me

2009-01-28T17:06:00.000-06:00

Well I've gotten on board learning to blog. I am from Wisconsin where its been quite cold, like below "0" for many days so it seems. I have 3 children, 2 girls that are grown and a son that is a Jr. in High School. My son plays in the school band as a flute player as is very good at this instrument. He also plays during the worship service at our church. I am a single mom, and work full time at Goodwill Industries.

I hope to use this to share my creativity using my cricut design studio. I hope to share about me and my family as I create for them.

Have a great day everyone that visits me here.
