Lost my Mojo!!!

I'm in a crafting funk!  I want to do it, I really do, but I can't seem to get it together and actually do it.  So, rather than leave my blog without any updates, I've decided to look through some old pictures I have saved and post some of the projects that haven't been seen here yet.  I hope to be back really soon with something new...maybe from the new French Manor cartridge that's exclusive to the Cricut Circle members.

Today's card was actually made LAST July for a challenge using a digital stamp.  I used Stampin' Up paper, markers and punches.  Nothing fancy, but I figured it was fitting for today's post.  I'll be back tomorrow with another "oldie but goodie". 

Cricut Lite Lacy Labels

Here's a quick thank you card I made using the new Cricut Lite cartridge, Lacy Labels.  On the keypad, it is #21.  I think picking the papers took more time than cutting and assembling the card.  Once I had decided on the paper, I used my Cricut Design Studio (because it hasn't been added to the G library yet) to place the elements on the mat so I could load the different papers and cut everything without unloading/reloading the mat.  After assembling, I added a few adhesive pearls and some faux stitching using a white Inkssentials pen. 

To see another project using this cartridge, visit my vinyl blog.  I used keypad #10 to make a decorative tile.  Hope to be crafting and posting much more in the days to come...SCHOOL'S OUT!!!! 

Blog Award

I got my very first blog award  from Lori over at Scrappin' My Stress Away.  I'm so glad to hear that someone enjoys what I'm posting here.  I really only started the blog because my 12 year old DS was sick of being asked what he thought about my projects.  He suggested I start a blog so other "people like me" could see (and he wouldn't have to, lol).  Thanks again, Lori. 

So it's time to pass this award on to 5 more inspiring blogs.  It's so hard to decide on only 5, but here goes:
