Back to my personal Cricut challenge! Many of you Cricuteers may not be familiar with the Cricut American Alphabet Cartridge because it is not available for purchase. It came pre-loaded on my Expression 2 when I purchased it from HSN a few months back. It is a great cartridge with some cute images and word art as well as 3 wonderful fonts.
I made a little 3x3 gift enclosure:
I used Linen Closet papers by DCWV and cut this cute doily (and there are SEVERAL doilies on the cartridge!) at 2 1/2 inches. I added a couple of scalloped circle layers punched out with Fiskars punches. I inked all edges with Color Bok Chalk Ink (Chestnut Roan). The sentiment was stamped with Stampin' Up's Chocolate Chip and punched out with an SU punch. I added a little twine just because it was cute!
I DID DO MY SHOPPING AT PAPER TREY INK!! Woohooo....!!! You know, I wrote about finding money in my husband's pocket while doing the laundry. So, I treated myself to a big purchase (big for me anyway). I bought some dies, a few stamps sets, some paper, ribbon, felt. I can't wait to see it all! I do have a complaint though...I don't like when things are out of stock!!! I so wanted the small rickrack die but it was not in stock! Sad....guess I'll just need to do laundry more often so I can be checking those pockets out!
Happy Crafting!
