Poinsettia card made using the Sweater Weather caritrdge.

Hello, friends!

Today's card is made using the Sweater Weather cartridge. I know this was one that you guys were not all that interested in, but this cut is so much fun! I just love the old fashioned look, plus I really love poinsettias!

I used Kraft paper, ribbon from PTI, and stamps from Close To My Heart.

I cut the shape out at 2" and added a border trim using a Martha Stewart punch.

I stamped the sentiment using the Christmas Love stamp set.

I also scored the card base a little bit just to add a little more detail.

Thanks so much for for stopping by today, my sweets! See you all back here tomorrow!

November Specials:

November stamp of the month:

Holiday Wishes stamp set that is only $5 with a $25 stamp purchase.

When you place a minimum order of $25 in My Acrylix^® stamp set starting today (until November 30th), you can purchase a new D-size Holiday Wishes stamp set for only $5! That’s significant savings off the full retail value of $17.95 US / $19.95 CAN. And here’s a bonus: many of the images in the set coordinate with our Cricut^® Art Philosophy cartridge for added cutting and stamping fun! 

So to break it down, 

-If you spend $50 you get the November stamp of the month (retails price of $17.95) for $5.

-If you spend $25 in stamps, you get the Holidays Wishes stamp set (retail price $17.95) for $5!

-These two offers can be combined. For example, if you spend $25 in stamps and an additional $25 on anything else in the catalog you will get both stamp sets for a total of $10 ($5 per set).

You save $25.90! Which means the stamps practically pay for themselves!

*note* You MUST add discounted stamps to shopping cart when prompted by the system during checkout. Stamps cannot be added after the sale is complete and finalized. Also, adding the stamps to your cart BEFORE being prompted by this system will result in being charged full price for promotional stamps.

Decorative bag made using the Sweater Weater cartridge.

Hello, friends!

 Now we need to have a talk. For sometime I have noticed that people will comment on my projects on both here and Everyday Cricut. Nearly every time I post a non-card project I will get at least one comment saying nice card. It happened SEVERAL times yesterday with the wall decor project I posted on this blog and the scrapbook layout I posted on Everyday Cricut. I am perplexed as to how something that is framed looks like a card. It had glass on it people. Now I realize that it must be my fault for not being clear enough when I post layouts. I always figured that the size would give it away, but since this is a blog and you guys cannot see actual size I can see where I went wrong with this rationalization. However, the glass, framed, wall hanging really confuses me. I have to tell you if I was a drinking woman, I could make a drinking game out of the comments that call my non-card projects cards. It really makes me chuckle.  One of the best things about being a blogger are the followers and I have to tell you, mine are the best out there!! xoxo

Today's project is made using the NEW Sweater Weather cartridge. I know I said I would not make any bags for a while, but I had made nearly everyone else a bag but myself. Not only that I bought some Anna Griffin fabric that I was itching to use. Now I know that you thought Sweater Weather was a Christmas cartridge. However, there are several great cuts that are perfect for non-Christmas or Winter themed projects.

If you are new to cutting fabric with your cricut I have a great tutorial for you! Click here ==> Melanie's FABULOUS cutting fabric with your Cricut tutorial.

Like I said the fabric is from Anna Griffin. Love her stuff!

I cut the border out at 4 3/4". Then I added some buttons and ric rack.

I cut the 'M' out at 1 3/4".

 Thanks so much for stopping by. I will see you all back here tomorrow with another project and I will post the winners of my giveaway in the afternoon! Click here to check out the giveaway ==> Simply Scarecrow Giveaway
