Stocking Christmas Card


Stocking Christmas Card

I made another Christmas Card from the Cricut/Anna Griffin Christmas Kitsch cartridge.
For the top of the stocking and toe of the stocking I did the print then cut with the Cricut Explore and Cricut Design Space.
The label on the envelope is Anna Griffin Totally Tags Christmas edition.

Happy Crafting!!

Snowman Christmas Card

Snowman Christmas Card

I am getting my Christmas cards made. I am really enjoying the print then cut feature in Cricut Design Space. It is so much faster to make a card by printing then cutting the images.


The Cricut Cartridge Christmas Kitsch.
The card size is 4-1/4 x 5-1/2

The Tree and borders were made with Anna Griffin Cuttlebug dies.
The borders were embossed with the Anna Griffin Cuttlebug Christmas Folders.

The Noel Is from Home For The Holidays Fall/Winter Cricut Cartridge.
I print then cut the penguins and Noel banner. 

Enjoy!
Happy Crafting!!

Repurpose Your Entertainment Center

Repurpose Your Entertainment Center 
I turned my entertainment center into craft storage.
I found cube storage that would fit in the opening.
I happened to have 2 of the pieces. I just needed to find the vertical shelves.
Then I started to organize my craft supplies into the unit.
I am really impressed how easily you can re-purpose old furniture.


Happy Crafting!!

Ikea Raskog Cart Storage

Ikea Raskog Cart 

I finished decking out my Ikea Raskog Cart.  I added some Mainstay baskets from Walmart.
I also added mesh drawer organizers for Ribbon, Washi Tape and wood stamps.
The baskets are removable and can be changed out according to what your working on.
I got the baskets in the front and on the sides at Walmart. The baskets were over by the kitchen supplies at the Walmart here. I had to put the hooks in the baskets and foam behind the basket so it sat up straighter.





































Hooks are shown on the left.
I took the white part off these hooks.
I used them to hang the baskets for the washi tape and ribbon
The label shown on the right is the baskets I used.

I don't keep the baskets on my carts all the time.
When I'm working on a project I use the baskets to hold supplies.
