Cricut Circle

Early in June I received an email from Cricut.com inviting me to join the Cricut Circle. I decided after reading all that was included that it would be a perfect opportunity to get to know people in my area who were as crazy about their Cricut as I am.
You might wonder what exactly is the Cricut Circle?
The CRICUT CIRCLE™ by Provo Craft is a select community of Cricut® enthusiasts. Cricut owners are the most creative, passionate, social, and fun-loving people on the planet. The Cricut Circle is our way to celebrate your enthusiasm (and ours!) for Cricut! The shape of the circle signifies inclusion, unity, kinship (think King Arthur and the round table). The goal of The Cricut Circle from Provo Craft is designed to bring this community of amazing people together to learn, share, and grow The Circle love!

New blog adventure

I have decided to split my blogs. I have another blog where I have posting both my creations and my adventures but I am starting to branch out a little more in my card creating so I decided to split them up. That way those who really only want to read about my creation don't have to wade through several posts of personal adventures. I am going to do my very best I keeping them both updated as much as I can. Please bare with me though since this one is new I will be spending more time on perfecting it.
