Sweet!

Hi There,

I have a post for you today and a couple others in the works. Today's card I'm also entering for a Design Team position over at Creative Critterz Imaginations. This blog is mainly about the Cricut Imagine.

At the end of the post I'll give you an update on my comings & goings!

Today's entry is almost entirely created with the Imagine. All paper has been printed with the Yummy cartridge as well as the images. The doily image or 1/2 of the image was cut using the same die as Friday's post.

Couldn't you just eat that banana sundae? Glossy Accents from Ranger was used on the ice-cream and cherry. The whipped cream was liquid applique and then warmed with the heat tool.

Added those little tassels in the top right hand corner from one of the birthday hat layers.
I changed the original colors on the "Sweet" to match the Sundae image.
Dimensionals were also used.

Didn't that doily punch out beautifully!

Hope you're still with me here - I have a little humor for you....this morning I headed out on Eva (my bike) for a nice long ride. Something I should have done is checked the weather first. I could see that it was overcast but just considered that a bonus that the sun wasn't going to be beating on me. Besides it's Houston we're in a major drought!

I get about half way around my course and "Hark, what do I hear?" Thunder. Darn...10 miles out means 10 miles back, no way around it. lol Overall I didn't get too wet...could have been much worse. However, I have learned glasses should come with windshield wipers and always carry a ziploc baggie should you want to keep a cell phone dry.

For fun this afternoon I got to go to the dentist for a root canal. Can life get any better? Oh yeah it can...I ordered a cricut cartridge on Saturday and it arrived today. Gotta love the fast shipping in the States.

Hope you're having a great day and I have a Christmas project for tomorrow.

Yvonne

  1. Hi Yvonne, "SWEET" card!!..lol..just had to do that.
    I really like it, looks like it might have taken a bit of time...
    Hope your not afraid of thunder, being 10 miles from home, wouldn't have been nice.
