Cricut's Shopping Extravagenza

It all started when we were taking my daughter to physical therapy and we drove past our local scrapbook store, Everything Scrapbook and Stamps. Cricut demanded that we stop in to see what new and wonderful things, the owner, Michelle had been bragging about on her blog.

We were not paying attention to Cricut as Michelle showed me all the new cool products that had arrived in the store. I still hadn't heard a peep out of Cricut while Michelle and I discussed the upcoming Murder Mystery Crop. Then suddenly out of the corner of my eye I spot Cricut at the register. Oh No, this could be bad! Apparently Cricut had been busy piling things in her shopping bag when we weren't looking. She even had my debit card and ESS reward card. I think we might have to enroll her in Shopaholics Anonymous. So now I know I can't take my eyes off Cricut while in her favorite scrapbook store.



If you find yourself in South Florida and you love all things paper crafting, you must stop in and see Michelle and her fabulous staff. Tell them "The Cricut Babies" sent you. For more store info go to www.everythingscrapbook.com

Jana, Clara and I will be celebrating my 40 birthday at the upcoming Murder Mystery Crop to be held at Everything Scrapbook and Stamps. Yes the Cricut Babies will be attending!

Halloween Fun

Here in Florida we almost got rained out for Halloween. This was also the first year my teenage daughter did not get dressed up or go trick or treating. So what's a 40 something mom to do but dress up a cute green plush animal known as Cricut. We decided on her sequin pumpkin costume but I'm not sure how she ended up wearing nerd glasses. 

Look at ALL that yummy candy!

 Just to prove I'm not only obsessed about Cricut. I am just as obsessed about my horses. So Pops and I carved this replica of my beloved pony Captain Jack complete with wings, because he is my angel (on most days).


Since we are talking about all things cute and candy I wanted to show you something Jana made recently. Jana is such a talented paper artist and an even more thoughtful friend. She made all of us these test tube candy holders for the last crop we attended (Scrapper's Dream Vacation). Jana, in case I haven't told you lately I LOVE mine!!! 



The pattern for the test tube holder is from Lisa Summerville www.lisasomerville.com
