And finally, my favourite Christmas card so far


I made it using the 'paper dolls' cartridge on the cricut. I had a lot of fun cutting loads of figures out whilst I was "looking after" the machine while my friend was on holiday. Just got to get around to making them all up now. I still have a shephers card and a mary and joseph card to make but I'm saving them for a weekend treat (sad I know)

That is fabulous!! I'm going to look on eBay to see if anyone sells these already cut! so cute! love the camel!! well done you!

I think sissix do a similar thing if you're looking on ebay. If you want to see some fantastic paper dolls projects you should visit the cricut forum

Wish I'd seen this before I gave the machine back

Its not exactly Cricut but there are a few paper piecing projects which look the same in books by Annie Lang

Bunbun2 - well done - a really pretty card, and the doctor who one looks fab too. Good luck on your entry, the card is lovely.
Mumoftwo - lovely card, I love the earthy colour tones.
Ikkle87 - your xmas card is lovely, really original.
Dawnteabag - a fabulous selection of cards. My favourite is the 3 kings xmas one too, especially the camel.
Well, oldest son has come back from school with CHICKENPOX! Not again! I thought he was immune to it, but it must have taken a while for him to catch it from his brother.
I ventured into town today along with my cold, and bought a few bargains from the 99p store. 50 c6 card bags (self-seal ones too), buttons and 15m of threaded sequins.
