Challenge Blog - The Gypsy Spot

Have you been by The Gypsy Spot yet?  If not, you need to pop on over and check it out.  They've changed their weekly challenges in order to allow more Cricut users to participate - you no longer have to have the Gypsy or Design Studio to participate...you just have to include some Cricut cuts.

Daily Craft Challenge

Tonight I decided to join Kathy and Samantha of the Cricut message boards in their daily challenge to scrap for 45 min to an hour.  At first I wasn't sure what to work on....and decided to work on a card.  My original thought was to make a Valentines Day card...but I think this card could be used for any occasion.

Blog Candy

Michele over at Scrap - n - Dance has some really awesome Blog Candy up for grabs.  She is giving away a European Decor Cricut Cartridge.  How awesome is that?  Hurry on over and enter for your chance to win before January 31, 2010.  She'll be posting the winner around 5 pm CT that day.

Good Luck everyone!

Time for Cards

I went to a crop last night hosted by a dear friend of mine, who is also a Creative Memories consultant.  Vicki holds the crops every month and I've been going faithfully since I started attending her crops last year.  I wasn't really in much of a scrappin' mood when I was heading over -- had a rough couple of days at work -- but once I got there I had a lot of fun (as always). :-)

Anyway, I didn't take much in the way of materials with me and figured I would go ahead and make a few cards.  In the 4 hours I was there, I made a total of 4 cards.  Not much...but I had a great time socializing and spending time with dear friends.

Here are the cards I made....
