Cricut Project of the Week & Free Cutting File
This week’s Cricut project actually uses cuts from all three Close To My Heart Cricut cartridges: Art Philosophy, Artiste and Artbooking. I used a sketch from Clean & Simple Stamping for inspiration, though oddly, there’s absolutely zero stamping on this card. Did you also notice that it’s not Seaside? LOL This card uses the fall-themed paper pack…
"Friend You Lift Me Up" Center Step Card
Today’s card is one that I made for the last Cards, Etc. workshop.

Hate to Say Goodbye…Round 4
Monday, I promised to share some projects that I created using the soon-to-be-retiring dark chocolate and black striped grosgrain ribbon. I so love this ribbon!
