Valentine's Day Projects
















Here is a peek at a few Valentine's Day projects I did this month. The Ghiradell chocolates box came were made using a cutfile from Okie here: http://okieladybugsscrapnmore.blogspot.com/2009/01/my-valentine-gift-to-my-readers.html
I made the Valentine mailbox for my niece with the help of a croppin cricut friend. Thanks PegMc for making the Minnie Mouse for me! *Now I bought my own Mickey and Friends cartrdige!*

The Love jar I made for my coworkers (now former coworkers) Hi Jen and Lori! I used vinyl from Uppercase living for those. The jars are CHEAPIES from WalMart!
The soap I saw the idea for on another blog.... ummm I think here: http://wipkits.blogspot.com/
once again the vinyl was from Uppercase living and the soap cost $1 and I removed the label.
and lastly the frame I made for Jen's b-day.

Cricut Cartridge Storage




I received this wonderful snapware container as a White Elephant gift at the IA Swarm. I finally have had time to cut down my plastic canvas and make the dividers for the container. It was tedious but I did get it done! This is certainly going to help me simplify my life in 2009! I do need to add onto this container so I have more room for books and overlays. I do however have plenty of room for more cartriges! HINT HINT! I will be labeling the tops of my cartridges too!
If you would like instructions on this check out the cricut forum here: http://www.cricut.com/messageboard/tm.aspx?m=3433071&mpage=1

New Years Resolution











In 2009 I resolve to be more organized! This cart my Mil and Fil gave me for Christmas will be a great start!
Also I plan to follow Ali Edwards suggestion. On Ali's blog she talked about choosing a word that you would like to focus on for the year 2009 .

I chose simplify.
sim⋅pli⋅fy  [sim-pluh-fahy]
verb (used with object), -fied, -fy⋅ing.
to make less complex or complicated; make plainer or easier: to simplify a problem.
