Last Christmas card of 2011

I made this using my favourite cartridge, Create-A-Critter.  I REALLY wish PC would ask Nancy Kubo to do another cartridge - her style is just perfect for Cricut.  I live in hope, anyway!!

This was my boyfriends card, a darling little penguin stood outside his igloo house :D  Of course this warranted LOTS of glitter, which I applied liberally to his house and scarf.

I hope you all have great new year celebrations.  I am ill at the moment (sore throat that has stolen my voice!!) so we'll be staying in watching something good.  I might have a drink for "medicinal purposes"  ;)

Love you you all and have a safe 2012.

Miiiiike Wazowski!!!

So I made this card this morning for my lovely Nephew whose is 6 on the 17th, which makes me feel far too old!!!

I Cricut a lot and SU cardstock is my favourite to cut. It is great quality, doesn't tear or snag in the machine and you can match most of the colours REALLY well with Disney/Pixar which I enjoy cutting.

Pear Pizazz is absolutely the best colour for Mike, I used Basic Black for the base, Sahara Sand for his horns and nails, Whisper white for his eye and teeth and Soft Suede for his tongue. Baha Breeze (my absolute favourite colour) was perfect for his eye and I brought out more of the colour using Baha Breeze for the background and Baha Breeze DSP for an accent.

I find matching fifty times easier since SU released the Colour Coach in the latest catalogue, mine is already well loved :) I use it most days!
