Cricut Frenzy and the winner is.......

I am in a Cricut frenzy at the moment as my Gypsy is alive and well, the TV repairman managed to fix it, and it works perfectly. Sighs of relief. So as I had made such a hoo-ha over it, I thought I better use it.......

I used A Childs Year for the shaped card, second cut, top row at 5 1/2". The shaped frames are from Elegant Edges, popped on with foam pads, and the flowers are from Mothers Day 2010. I cut three sprays in white, then coloured them with ProMarkers. The centers are newsprint Card Candi, from

 Craftwork Cards. Gingham cardstock by Kanban

I layered the flowers for dimension, and distressed them with a ball tool and foam mat

Anyone into the Olympics yet? I am now a world authority on Beach Volleyball, and Archery. Funny how listening to commentators discuss the game means that after an hour you can yell tactical advice at the screen. I expect to become an expert on rifle shooting, diving and a couple of other sports today, armchair sports can be very satisfying!
