This is the card I made for our neighbor girl who also use to babysit for us.
Our school colors are black and silver. I used The new arrival cricut cartridge to cut the "congratulations" out. I used my crop a dile to make punch holes in the bottoom of the card and then threaded a ribbon through. And last but not least I topped it off with a clear skittle.
The "magazine cover" below is my nephew who I am trying to get some sort of revenge on. For April Fools this year he had my sister text me and my other sister telling us we are going to be Great Aunts. Mike is freshly out of college and not in a relationship. I called him to offer congratulations and a shoulder if he needed it. Mike played along with his joke and went on that he did not know what he was going to do etc and sounded sooo depressed! For that I give him "Player" of the year. LOL! If there were such a magazine he would most definetly be on the cover. Cograts Mike! I am not done with you yet!

I am having sinus surgery on Friday so I thought I had better get a jump on the May projects. I made this May basket with chipboard coasters, scrapbook paper, some ribbon and a little hot glue.
My dd painted this frame that I got at Michaels and she then used glue dots to add the prepainted Dragonfly. We plan to make one more and then give them to "The Grandma's" for Mother's Day.

Here is my entry! Wish me luck!
Okay I should have kept the link to the blog where I first saw this idea for ribbon storage but I forgot to! So far I love this idea . . . plus it helps that I already owned the basket!
I made these with my son today as an after school project. He was very proud to be helping make a snack for himself. They go together very easily and quick!
3-Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies
Ingredients:
1 egg
1 cup sugar
1 cup peanut butter
Directions:
Combine all ingredients until mixed. Roll mixture into 1 inch balls. Place on ungreased cookie sheet and flatten each ball with a fork. Bake at 350F for 8-10 minutes. Cool for 5-7 minutes then place on wire rack. Makes about 2 dozen.
I made this tonight using the doodle charms cartridge for my cricut and my new allegro embossing folder for my cuddlebug. I used stickles to make the icing 3-D and I used my paper crimper to make the cupcake look realistic.
I think I am going to like using stickles with my cricut card projects so I bought some more from http://www.craftersalley.com/
