Lisa's in DC right now so I'm not sure when she will be checking in. But I know the basic ins and outs of the crop.

Second Sat of every month, from 9:30 - 4:30 lunch is provided. I can PM anyone the cost.

thanks Buffy. will you pm the info. i'd really love to come & play.

Would love to have you join us! (thanks BAMB for being my asst)

PM or email me with any questions. The nice part is the location is right near Route 84 on the Manchester/South Windsor line so it is easy to get to.

Monthly crops are always the second Saturday of the month. It makes it easier for all having it on a set time each month.

Couldn't wait to try out Denise's lesson on using the markers on my cricut - and I was totally in LOVE with Diana's sheep . . . so one thing led to another and I wound up with this flock of Easter cards. After I took this photo, I decided they looked a little plain, so I surrounded the sheep with penwork grass, and strewn a few punched eggs but of course forgot to take another photo.

You gals are great teachers and role models ;-)

 

[Lisa]

Linda, that is just too cute!!!!

 

[morgansmom2000]

Those are so cute! You used the markers on them?

 

[LindaBabe]

Yes. I dunno if I can explain clear enough what she said do - I hope she'll correct me if she's around. First you put the marker in and "cut" as many creatures as you want, which will draw on an outline and all the details - everything in pink and purple. Then hit load paper again, without ever having unloaded. The paper will go back to the beginning. Put in the blade and reset the settings. Push the blackout function key, then press cut. Presto, a nicely outlined creature with predrawn details. Can't believe I had those darn pens over a year before I learned how to use them - or was it two years

I'm going to have to try that this weekend. I got the markers when I bought the CE in November of '07...Never even cracked those puppies open

 

[LindaBabe]

Jennifer - how did your cricutting with the markers go?
