Hope Josh likes his birthday card. I am leaving for Virginia tomorrow to see my daughter and her family. It's Josh's 10th birthday and I made him this card using my paper doll cartridge from cricut. I'm proud of myself as I do more and more with the cricut.

Spiral Pop Up cards. Interesting technique for making an adorable card to make the recipient smile. All it takes is one little circle. The flower card was using the cricut cartidge forever young. For the bird cards I used set TB3149 - unexpected joys.

This week's workshop is Iris Folding. We will be making all seven cards using the folding technique. Put in a variety of material that can be used when Iris Folding, such as paper, tissue paper and ribbon.

This workshop was "Stairs" as each card is a different stair step. I have been using my cricut so much lately that I think the machine wants to retire. On the rabbit card I just cartridge Easter 2010 for the eggs and grass and cartridge new arrival for the bunny. On the flower pot I used cartridge forever young for the flowers, and cartridge walk in my garden for the flower pot. Martha Stewart large border were used on the owl card along with Artsy Owl set T3038.
