Fun with ....

my Cricut!

I splurged for myself and bought the new Cricut Debossing and Engraving tool tips. Still playing around with them so here's my first try at the Debossing tool.

I made a dragon from the Cricut Design Center and it puffed up nicely thanks to the deep groove from the debossing, however you can't see the detail as well.

I filled in with glitter glue lol, oh well next time might be the charm.



Back to having fun, blessings and hugs, Lori m

Scor-Pal.....

and Imagine That Digi Stamps, card and gift box.


Here, I used my Scor Pal to make the adorable box, the pattern is by Beate Johns called Tiny Takeout. Isn't it the cutest?

Along with the adorable box I added a Giraffe with coffee... card, from Imagine That Digi Stamps. Too cute.

Here's a few closer views...



There you have it, a quick... cute... little gift box and card set. 

The Tiny Take out box can easier hold a couple coffee pods, packets of sugar or sweetener or even hot cocoa.

Under the sea....

there lives all kinds of sea creatures and cute Baby Mermaids from Imagine That Digi Stamp.

Here's a quick card I put together using an adorable Baby Mermaid, my We R Memories Quill Pen and gold foil. I added an inside pop up for a little fun. The inside background fish were from my Cricut Design Space.


The beautiful sentiment was the perfect addition to my card and very much enjoyed freebie from Donna Ellis. Thank you Donna.
