Now if you come on this cruise and take my class I will do my very best to make sure that you leave being able to tie the best bow possible! I am totally serious! I am teaching two classes with Joy, but I will do a bow tying demo for any Cricut cruise traveler who is interested! It is going to be so great! Oh and I am bringing my mother, so you all get to meet her! She just cannot wait!

Ok, on to the card....

This card has no cricut, but I used my fantabulous cuttlebug!!! Well, and a new die I bought from Papertrey Ink. Seriously though, you could crank out tons of these using your cuttlebug and impress all who receive your Christmas cards! ALSO it is a super cheap card to make(no ribbon or other embellishments)! Now for those of you who have gypsies or Design Studio you can design something similar using a cricut shape. It is ridiculously easy to do. The only reason I did not do that is that there is a stamp set that matches the die. It was kind of a one two punch for me!


The paper is from Papertrey Ink.
I added a little bit more using my white signo uniball pen.


Thanks so much for stopping by today! Let me know what you guys think about the cruise. If any of you are going to go please let me know! I can't wait to meet some of my blog followers as I love each and every one of you!!

Oh and Scrappy Mama, I bought way too much Judith Ripka from QVC! I got two rings and two pairs of earrings! I cannot believe I have spent so much before Christmas. I added a few of her pieces to my Christmas list as well....I am so addicted ;-) Thanks for helping me get a new addiction!!

Have a terrific Tuesday!

Am so glad to hear that you found a new addiction & don't forget, they usually have Judith's jewelry as a TSV several times a year...just trying to be helpful ;) !! Congrats on getting to go on this cruise - it sounds like it'll be a blast!!

  31. Cute card. Can you pack me in your Luggage and let me stow away with you and Joy on the cruise. I can not afford that, my 3 grandbabies get all my money.
