"kitty kitty, meow meow"

...that's what my daughter Claire used to call Hello Kitty. Sadly, she has grown out of calling her that (sigh-she's getting to be such a big girl). At least she still loves Hello Kitty!! And, I have to confess...I have always loved HK too :) So, this new cricut cartridge has become my newest obsession ;)
celebrate!
Supplies: Hello Kitty Cricut cart., Core'dinations CS, Pink Paislee PP, May Arts ribbon, and a button from my stash.
Hope you're enjoying the last little bit of your weekend!

Hello!

Wow! It's been for-ever! I can't believe how much I have been slacking when it comes to card making. I didn't do much over the holidays at all....as far as crafting, that is. I hope you all had wonderful holidays! I know I did...and my scale proves it ;) Seriously, though, I am getting back into the swing of things (including my regular workout schedule...haha) and it feels good! :)

Well, I decided I had to make a card yesterday so I decided to play along with the CPS sketch for this week. I used my brand new Hello Kitty Cricut cart. (I LOVE it) and this is what I came up with:

So Precious
Supplies: AC Cardstock, Pink Paisley PP, Creative Impressions twill ribbon, Cosmo Cricket rub on and Hello Kitty Cricut cart.
I am so excited about this new cartridge. Ever since I saw Lea's strawberry card, I have wanted it. I am thrilled with it...such cute images and the card functions are so fun! So, thanks to Lea for the inspiration!
Happy New Year, crafting friends!
