So Crafty!!

So as promised, here are the loooong awaited pics of the initial frames I was working on a couple weeks ago... The color scheme will match our bedroom perfectly when I move in with AB!!

This one is mine...

And this one is AB's.

And most importantly.... I GOT A CRICUT!!!

You cannot imagine my excitement when I opened my email Friday morning and saw that Big Lots had a very limited number of Cricuts for sale at (get this!) $129.00!!! I almost fainted at my desk! Of course, my entire lunch break was spent on the phone, calling all the area stores, begging them to hold one for me.

Once I purchased my new BFF, I made myself leave it in the trunk of my car until Sunday morning, as I knew I would not be able to help myself, and spend my entire Derby party crafting if I were to open it!

But when Sunday morning rolled around, it was magical! AB had gotten me a copy of Sure Cuts A Lot Friday evening when I shared the news of my new purchase (I'm a lucky girl, I know!), so I was able to start Cricuting right away!!

Here's my first project -- a mother's day card, of course!!

Until next time,

ANNNNNNND...

A CRICUT!!!

I saw an infomercial for this YEARS ago, and I have wanted one ever since!! Thing is, I have one, I can make vinyl letter cut-outs, and make...

THIIIIS!! (credit goes to Imperfectly Beautiful -- KUDOS!) What a brilliant idea!! Especially now that I'm faced with turning a bachelor pad into a domestic dwelling for the Amazing Boyfriend and I!! But here's the really spooky thing... The above pictured monogram is A.B.'s initials!! I'm going to take that as a sign of good things to come for us! :)
