Red and White Joy Chirstmas Card

Red and White "Joy" Christmas Card

This is a simple card I made using stamps, ribbon, punch, and cuttlebug.
I made the background by stamping (Swirls by Autumn Leaves) and on the bottom I used a Martha Stewart border punch. "Joy" was cut out with my Cuttle bug "Hippe Chick" font. For "Joy" you could use your favorite Cricut Font Cartridge, but I chose to use my cuttlebug because I love how this font looks. To bling up the card I used Stickles "Star Dust" on the word Joy and on all the dots. I also stamped a swirl on the inside of the card.

Cricut Cartridge Storage

I wanted to share with you how I store my Cricut Cartridges. I got the inspiration from a youtube video & give the lady credit at the end of my video. However, I made it my own. I love using photo boxes because they are the perfect size. I think they hold about 18 cartridges, books, and overlays in each box.

Sketch Book and Give Away

I wanted to share how I made my sketch book with you and I have a surprise at the end.
Sorry for the background noise. My 3 yr old was watching a movie to keep her quiet.
