Configuration box

I just finished my first Tim Holtz configuration box. I did a shabby chic I guess. Most of the miniatures in it came from something I love in my life. There are books, a cat in a paper bag, baking items and knitting supplies. Wish I could have found something scrappy to put into it, but the site I got the miniatures from didn't have anything like that.

So here it is:

Sorry that it isn't the greatest picture. It's the only one I have right now. I hope to get more up, but my camera is pretty crappy when it comes to close up stuff.

Make my heart sing

This looks a little busy now that I actually sit and look at it. I should have just used a solid color cardstock instead of the heart patterned paper, but oh well. Not everything is going to turn out the way we want, and I might as well post the bad as well as the good.


Inside of card says You make my heart sing and has another little music note. (I really need to start taking pictures of the insides as well.)

Supplies:
George Font and Basic Shapes (heart)
Hannah Montana (music notes)
Love me cardstock (by MME) (music notes and patterned heart paper)
Be Mine cardstock (by EP) (music score paper)
Kraft paper for base
Red cardstock (heart)
Ribbon

Hello Kitty

I recently got the Hello Kitty Greetings Cricut cartridge. I lost many an ebay auction before finally winning one. (And I am happy to say that I didn't spend over a 100 dollars like I saw a couple of them go for!)

So here is the first attempt at using the cart. I am going to make a couple of more and give them to my nieces for Valentine's Day.


Supplies:
Hello Kitty Greetings Cartridge
red cardstock (for base and shadow of xo stamp)
white cardstock (for stamped image)
grey cardstock (which came from EP's Be Mine collection)
patterned paper for heart (Love Me collection from MME)
ribbon (the ribbon on this card came from WalMart)
X and heart stamp from Michaels
