Cricut Christmas

Hi everybody! It's been a while since I posted. I went to Boston to visit my brother for the Thanksgiving holiday and just got back. Time to get serious with these Christmas cards!

As a Christmas present to myself, I purchased a Cricut Air Machine, thanks go Black Friday prices. My Cricut Expression was starting to cause issues with cutting, so I felt it was time I upgraded. It's rather old but was still useful until recently.

This is one of my first cards I created with the new machine. It's so easy because I don't have to physically connect my computer to the Cricut. It's all wireless! For this card, I first selected the card image from Cricut Access on the computer, then I hit Go and the machine began cutting, one layer after another. It stopped in between layers for me to change the color of the cardstock. Once it was done, I only had to adhere the layers and add the stamped sentiment on the inside. Easy!

If I get in a pinch and need more cards, this will be the one I go to for duplication.

Thank you for stopping by today. I appreciate your comments and visits very much, and I hope to see you again real soon ~
