Quick Cards with Cricut

CTMH's Cricut Artistry Arrow Card

CTMH's Cricut Artistry Arrow Card

Things have been pretty busy here this week preparing for my Annual Holiday Extravaganza Class & All-day Crop.  Add in the stress of wondering if our city & neighborhood would be one that would be impacted by PG&E’s Power Shutoff and it feels as though I’m scrambling to get things done (& hope they don’t become undone–like food purchased for Saturday’s event going bad if the power is shut off!)

Happy National Failures Day!

Beautiful Life Window Panes Card

Beautiful Life Window Panes Card

Today, August 15th is National Failures Day! That’s right… it’s a day to celebrate failures!  Seems a little weird, right?  But it’s actually a pretty good thing.  In fact, the teacher my kids had the last 2 years of school taught their whole class that the word fail actually stands for:

F=first

A=attempt

I=in

L=learning

Cricut Flower Headband Closeup

Hummer Limo

This past Saturday my daughter had the opportunity to attend a Red Carpet Event with her Girl Scout troop along with 17 other troops.  Each troop created their own movie and this event was the premier showing of those movies (luckily they could each only be 3-5 minutes otherwise with 18 movies to watch it would be quite the marathon!)
