ARKANSAS BORN AND RAISED / NEW CRICUT EXPLORE MACHINE


Today I received my new provo craft CRICUT EXPLORE MACHINE in. WOW I love it!!!!
I signed into CRICUT DESIGN SPACE, and because I am already a member of CRICUT
CRAFT ROOM all of my cartridges (about 200)  were automatically on The Cricut Design Space
woooohooooo!!!!!  This is my first cut and it was so easy.  I will probably give my E2 to my
daughter.    I have a mini so I can still use the in the CCR.  it was color coded these cuts I just
put the paper colors it said on the 4 separate mat and cut and this is what I got I love it.  I will
have to make these cuts out of vinyl and put  on T Shirts for my kids  After one project I am
already hooked  I am not sure at the moment if it will do the Imagine but will be checking it out.

Birthday for my friends (twins)






This is going to sent out to my twin girl friends I went to school with starting with Kindergarden
they are now 62 years old and I am a week late!!!! Story of my life.  I bought my jars from
Hobby lobby  I got my candle wax from online at Bulk Apothecary  also I made my soap bar
with goat soap base from there too!!  The oval molds came from there too!  The round molds I
bought on an etsy shop and I can't remember which but the molds came from China.  The boxes
I made with my We R Memory Box Punch Board The flowers on top I made out of 2 in circles and a little water spray.   The 2 treat boxes are made with all of MCT products. The refridgerator magnets
were made with MCT products and the ribbon from Liz's Boutique.  The ink on the calendars is from
CTMH color Smothie.  The candles scents is rose and I took dried rose petals from my Valentine
flowers Hubby got me and tore them in small pieces and put in before the candle set up.  Here is a
video that shows how to make the treat box cards with tags from Cindy's blog using MCT products
http://www.cindybcreations.blogspot.ca/2014/02/mct-challenge.html   The sequins came from the
store on My Craft Spot http://craftspotbykimberly.blogspot.com/  and by the way MCT stands for
