These cards were shared  by Jean Murphy, aren't they just gorgous, once again  showing off the  New Cricut Artiste cartridge.  

I gave these pumpkins to my granddaughters for Trick or Treating.  The one held some chapsticks and the other one held some headbands.  I put a velcro on the top to hold them together.  

Club project for this past month, was to make a decorative ornament to hang on your door and wall.  Mickey made this one in blue and bronze. Nice job. 

These are the cards we made on Tuesday at class.  The snowflakes and the ornament were cut with the AP cricut cartridge

Never ending card My Video 10/26/12 at OneTrueMedia.com

Never ending cards always amaze people, create some of your own and have fun watching everyone open the card over and over again. All the designs were cut with the Artiste Cricut Cartridge.  When you cut out the horses you get 2 horses and a rope.  The size is based on the length of the rope, so if you want 1 1/2 " horses you would cut them out about 4"

Make a video - it's fun, easy and free!

Close to my Heart has a new journal that is linen and can be easily decorated with the ribbon rosettes and the pearl swirls. I used our new pigment inks for the words so that they wouldn't fade.  

I was asked to put on this blog the mini brag book that everyone can make using the new Artiste Cricut cartridge.  It's easy, just cut the shapes with the cartridge and glue them to the chipboard  and assemble your book. I uses waxy flax to put your book together and then tied silver dot ribbon bows. z1802  If you want to make more books you can order more z1791 Album pages.I used Avonlea paper z7155b.  Any questions just let me know.

When I made this container with  the  Artiste  Cricut cartridge, I immediately thought of good and plenty candies.  I also used the new pigment ink to emboss the enjoy.   

Here is another creation I made for my Open House, each pie wedge can have a special treat inside. This would make a great centerpiece or party favors.

Here are some cupcakes with liners that I served at my Open House, if you missed it, let me know and we can set up at time to get together.  The new Cricut Artiste cartridge makes 20 cupcake liners and I also made the doily to set the cupcakes on.  I just love this cartridge.

The  inside of the card is also cut with the cartridge, way cool.
