I hope you all liked what 2 projects I posted yesterday. I had a ton of fun making them! Those cartridges have tons of possibilities as do the ones I have for you all today! Playtime and Twinkle Toes are perfect for those of you with children, grandchildren, or just know some children ;-) I guess that pretty much includes everyone!
Now on to today's projects....By the way I am getting tons of comments on these cards about them being made with my Imagine, but they are actually made using my expression. I stamped the focal points, they are not printed....

ReplyDeletethe.k.krew (at) gmail (dot) com
I think you did some great cards but I do find the Blessed Mother cut hard to tell what it is. Knowing it is from the Inspiration cartridge helped me, but if I received the card and wasn't aware of Cricut images, I might think it was the silhouette of something else.
ReplyDeleteAs always, your cards are fabulous!
