Christmas Card

It's Monday and I hope you all enjoyed your crafty weekend!!  I was very productive needless to say.  I made my very first banner and I cannot wait to share it with you all.  

Todays' card is a warm up to my many more Christmas cards that  have to make and what better time to get started now.  You know Christmas is only ......... that's right you don't know what to know!


All products used in this card are stampin up.  Enjoy the rest of your day!

Superman Layout!

It's been awhile since I have posted a layout so I thought today is the day.  It was super quick to come together as the cricut cuts were from a swap I received on the cricut message boards.  A great swap to participate in if you don't have the need to buy the whole cartridge just for the sake of a couple of cuts.

Anywho, my brother is a huge superman fan so this one is for him and his kids!!


Paper, ribbon and sticker was all from my stash.  Still have journalling that I need to complete and I actually just might have my brother do that for me!!
