The card for heroes project had a Christmas in July challenge... so I
made them a bazillion cards. Not actually that many, but it felt like
it! lol I spent a few days cutting up my supply of old christmas cards
so they could be recycled into new ones - I try to get as many cards

Here are my cards for July.  I used my cricut to cut out the Santa's.
Thanks for looking.

does anyone have this??? i just got one from the  yardsale i went to
today..it cost me 10 bucks brand new..i hope it will help me with my
stamping..
   if you have it and use it what do you think of it???

no, I am not talking about the Gyspy, I am talking about the Cricut Jelly

Last weekend to make cards.  I know a few of us are having a hard time this

behind me I'm going to make Christmas cards.

on my side as of late.
In the trash last week someone was throwing out an upper cabinet from
a kitchen remodel in perfectly good condition.  So I lugged it

I have to make some for a swap... it doesn't sound hard - I like
making deco squares and inchies are just a little smaller. Anyone here
into them?

The scrapbook stores in Southern Indiana and one in Henderson, Ky are
participating in a scrapbook store hop from July 10 to July 26. Every store
is having a make-n-take and a door prize and giving  20% discount to every
shopper who signs up at one of the stores for a $5 passport ...

I think the cards for heroes project is a great idea, so I've started
making some cards for them... in the last few weeks since I heard
about it here, I've made 33 assorted cards. Yesterday and today I
experimented with my water colour pencils and some direct-to-paper

What do you use to spray on your mats to make the sticky again.

IIRC someone was having trouble with sizes using the Cricut Wild Card
cartridge. I came upon this site which has the maximum size that can be used
for the Expression.

I don't know why I imagined that June had 31 days! But here are my
cards, hopefully still sneaking in under the upload deadline... I went
with green this month and used my colluzzle to cut the ovals - I
finally got a nice new cutting blade for it the other day. The 'dirty
