With scrapinvintage its not about how many members I can get its about all the wonderful friends I have from across the world.

I want to share some of the things I have created for my friends in the last month or so.

This is a Cigar box I created for Nicole I got the image from online. The Paper is from graphic 45 communique the butterflies are from prima and so is the bling. The flower is Maya road, stick pins are from Websters pages. I added a trim and flat back pearls around the sides and a Tim Holtz knob for opening the box.

I made this tp mini album for Sheryl I used graphic 45 once upon a spring time and used this really cool binding technique that Marla shared with me i have the link to the tutorial on the site.

This is a sneak peak on an album im working on for someone Im almost finished and will be sharing all the details soon.

Im loving the Cricut design space it has changed in the last few years. I was very please to see that all my cartridges I uploaded years ago was still there waiting for me.
