she creates and she can make cards!!!

With the help of Sara, we made cards last nite and this afternoon!! We had a GREAT time. She really pushed me to the limit as far as paper piecing goes. (AND getting those Halloween cards done-THANKS SARA!) We found out she's a much better paper piecer than I am!! LOL

We got out my cricut & DL'd some files (some from the Dafont and other from the ladies at craftedge forums and some from our very own Aimee!!) (((I'll come back & post credit to the file makers, i need to browse thru my lapttop and see what files i got from where.)
Importantly, I used everything here from MY STASH!!!! I'm so stoked!! Items i've hoarded for years!!!!! AGAIN, Thank you Sara for making me use these items!!! :) (Items from swap items, secret sister gifts)

I got this from Amyee's blog. We used the haunted house. Twas fun!! Sara pieced the house together and we sticked the moon and chalked the edges..






I got these bat files from cuts4scrapbooking blog. (I think that the was the name of the blog, i'll get the site when i got thru my laptop.



These next three, i don't remember the name of the blogs that i DL'd them from, but like i stated, i'll get the name of the blogs that i got them from. Such awesome talent on the net that these people have! Thanks for letting me use them! :)





I got these images from dafont.com

Wow gf! These are all fabulous!!!!! Love 'em!! Thanks for using the haunted house! It looks great!

Also, you had asked me about cutting the board books with SCAL/Cricut. I did buy the deep cut blade/housing and it makes it easier to cut. Right now, I've been cutting my books out with heavy weight watercolor paper. I cannot find chipboard like I need in my area. So some ladies on the Cricut board recommended the watercolor paper. It is perfect. It cuts great and when you cover each side with cardstock, it is just as thick and sturdy as the lightweight chipboard would be. Now, you might could cut that with the original blade with the depth on 6 and pressure on max. I'm not sure. But I get the watercolor paper in the art section at my M's withmy 40% off coupon. I can get several books out of one pack of the paper. I hope that helps! Let me know if you have any more q's.

Also, thanks for visiting my blog! Hugs gf!
