I had alot of fun creating this clover leaf. I cut 4 - 1 1/2" hearts from 2 different colors of paper. The top layer I scored and folded in half. Then adhered it with 1/8" score tape to hold down the center fold. I topped it off with a rhinestone that I colored with a green Copic Marker.

Tell me what your favorite part of Spring is. I love getting to know my readers. 

Spring is my favorite season in the Midwest, United States. I love it when the weather begins to warm up, the flowers start to emerge out of the ground, and the trees being to bud. I love flower beds and I can't wait till it is warm enough to get outside to clean up my flower.

I will draw a winner on Tuesday.

My Cricut Expression

My Cricut Expression

I wanted to make my Expression unique with my name on it. This is what I came up with.

I designed it with my gyspy so I could cut the vinyl and transfer it directly to my machine. I used the multi layer function on my gypsy so I could line up the word "creations" right along the curve.

I found a basic cricut settings table from
Joy at Obsessed with Scrapbooking

http://www.obsessedwithscrapbooking.com/2009/05/cricut-settings-table.html

This is an amazing table that tells you what setting you need to use for most of your everyday cuts.

I adhered it to my lid so I don't loose it & I know how to cut every time.

Check out her great blog & cricut settings table.
