Artiste Baby Shower Card

I made this baby shower card from the new Artiste Cricut Collection.  It's a cute little diaper!  I used the La Belle Vie paper packet as it seem to be quite girly.  It was super easy to make using the Artiste Cricut Collection.
 
 


Supplies:

Paper: La Belle Vie paper packet

Christmas Advent Calendar


I made the Advent Calendar in current Idea Book.  It's great because you can put your own little treats into each box for your kids, spouse or yourself to countdown until Christmas AND you can use it again year after year!  Some ideas that you can put into the boxes, small little toys for young children, fun activities written on a piece of paper such as "today we will make Christmas cookies" or "movie night", and of course chocolates.  I quite enjoyed making this Workshop On the Go Advent Calendar Kit and I thought I would offer this as a class.  I will have all of the boxes pre-cut for you and the circles/squares for the numbers.  You will need to stamp each circle/square and assemble the boxes.  The cost for this class will be $65 which includes the Workshop On the Go Advent Calendar Kit and all the necessary supplies, glue, and pre-cut items from the Cricut Artiste Collection
 
If you would like to attend this class, please let me know by Wednesday, November 7th 2012 as I will need to order a kit for each person. 
 
UPDATE: I forgot to mention when I posted this last night, when I will be holding the class.  I will be holding the class on Friday, November 23 at 630pm and if there is enough interest, I will offer the class on Saturday, November 24.

Halloween Display Tray


A little while ago I saw another consultant had created a Halloween Display Tray using the new display tray, both Cricut Collections, Moonlight Paper Packet and a variety of stamp sets all from Close To My Heart.  I apologize, I cannot remember which consultant I got this cool idea from.  I had a lot of fun creating this tray, and thought I would offer it as a class.  Cost for the class will be $40, and I will have most things pre-cut already to save on some time.  I will be hosting this class on Friday, October 26th at 7pm.  If you would like to attend this class, please let me know by Monday, October 15th to allow me enough time to order in the supplies and have everything pre-cut.

Stay tuned for more class information, I am still hoping to assemble my Advent Calendar and post on my blog, as well as another card class and hopefully I can find time for another project or two!

October Christmas Card Class


I will be hosting another Christmas card class on Friday, October 12th at 7pm.  These cards are featuring the October Stamp of the Month with Close To My Heart.  I also created these cute bows from the new Artiste Cricut Collection from Close To My Heart.  This cartridge is absolutely amazing, if you have a Cricut machine, this Cricut Collection is a must!  The card class will be $20 for 4 cards and I will have everything pre-cut as per usual.  Please let me know by Tuesday, October 9th if you will be attending the class.  Kits are also available if you would like to make the cards but are unable to attend the class.

For anyone who may be interested, I will be placing a group order on Monday, October 15th to save on shipping.
