Hello Everyone...
I have been very busy lately trying to get things ready for the holidays and get the girls settled into the new apartment. It has not been easy getting them adjusted to the new place or myself either. But we are getting there slowly.. .alot of changes and have to get used to them.
Well today I have been playing in the craft room and trying to get some things finished for the holidays.
A friend of me contacted me about helping put together a little care package to send overseas to her hubby and his squad and I said I would love to help out with what I can. So I am going to be baking up some cookies this week and then I am going to be sitting with the girls and a couple of their friends and we are going to make some Cards for them.
I am thinking of having the girls use the Create A Critter Cartridge to make them their cards...
I think the squad is going to love seeing all the goodies and the cards that are being put together just for them ...
Well on to what I have created today... I thought I should get started on my Christmas cards and that way I can get them addressed and ready for the mail right after Thanksgiving...
I was playing with my Cricut and thought how much I love the snow and I figured I would make some snowflakes cards this year...
I pulled out the Art Philosphy Cartridge and my Pink Stamper Stamps.
Here is the Little Card that I came up with...
( I also printed the saying out with the printer and then carefully trimmed to the size I needed for the inside of the card)
here is where you can get some great sayings for the inside of your holiday cards

Card base is cut at 4 1/4" x 8 1/2" then folded to make a 4 1/4" square card
layer one is cut at 4"x4"
layer two is cut at 3 3/4" x 3 3/4"
Then I used my cuttlebug and snowflake embossing folder
Snow flake base and top layer are cut at 3"
Stamp Set is from My Pink Stamper " Winter Punnies"
I am now off to make some more of my Christmas Cards... Happy Crafting Everyone...
