not to bad of a pic since it was with my phone, but it's much prettier in person. and i love that you cuttlebug (i think) the cone part!

Aw, thank you. I did Cuttlebug it. I should use an embossing folder on every card I ever make for the rest of my life.

3 cards here...all gift card holders, including one explosion box gift card holder. It was my first attempt at that, and it came out great!

I finished up 12 note cards for FIL GF for gifty...forgot to take pics...

I used recollections Hollywood & Vine paper - back ground was Silver Screen B&W with swirls and flowers and letter was Privacy Fence B&W striped with black matting, used a black ribbon with silver edges and glittered her initial. looked elegant with just the right amount of bling!

 

[morgansmom2000]

Oh, they sound so pretty!

I did, I will have to post them tonight after work. I was going to yesterday, but I have been so busy baking cupcakes and cinnamon rolls for holiday orders that I have not had time.

[morgansmom2000]

Would you all like me to start a thread for 2011?

Forgot to post, but I had made 7 Thank You cards right after Christmas. So that brings my total from 42 to 49 and I only joined in Oct.

I meant to do set up a photobucket account earlier, but never got around to it. Here's cards I made Oct - Dec.

I only started getting back into crafting & making cards this fall when I splurged and bought a Cricut Expression and a Cuttlebug.

Our Christmas Cards.

I realized embossing the snowflakes on all the cards I had to make was too much work, so I ditched that step after only a few.

My first time hearing about Stickles, so I used that inside on the snowflake stamp.

This was where I got the card idea. DH vetoed the use of glitter & tape. And once I started making them, and my kitten insisted on helping, I realized that no glitter was probably a good idea.

One thing I learned and didn't like was that the Cricut cards cut out square, which meant I had to find and order square envelopes online, and it cost 64 cents to mail a square card because it cannot go through the postal machinery. MAJOR DISLIKE to Cricut for that.

 

[morgansmom2000]

Nice work! I'll update the thread total for you.

I don't like the square cards either. You can send a 5x7 for 44 cents, but not a square card. Well, not that I don't like them, but the postage makes me
