Cricut Cardz Challenge #58

Welcome Everyone! We're so glad you could join us this week.

It was so exciting to see all of last week's entries. They were all so amazing. We're happy to announce last week's winner of the red, black and white challenge is:

Patty from The Crafty Kitten. She made an adorble scalloped circle shaped card with a darling Hello Kitty image on it. Congratulations Patty. Your name will go into the drawing for January.

Since we have settled fully into winter, this week's challenge will be to use an image that is purely associated with winter. For challenge #58 we would like to see a SNOWMAN-USING ANY CRICUT CARTRIDGE AND ANY COLORS. There are so many Cricut cartridges with great snowman images on them. If you have a Gypsy and do a search for SNOWMAN there are over 15 different cartridges that pop up. Everyone probably has at least one of them. But just in case you don't, you can always go back to basics. How would you build a snowman outside, what basic shape do we all use to make a traditional snowman? A circle, of course! The Design Team has come up with some fabulous creations to inspire you and get your creative energy flowing.

Cricut Cardz Challenge #56

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU ALL!!! We hope you all had a fantastic holiday. We have lots of fun in store for you this year. Let's take care of a little unfinished business from last year. For all the players that entered the last challenge of the year #55 for a Christmas card with a mini banner...our winner of that challenge chosen by random.org is:

Player #9--Sandee

Your name will be entered in the December drawing. The winner for the month of December will be announced next week. Thanks to all who entered a card. They were all fantastic!

To start off the year we have a New Year's challenge. We want to see a New Year's card and want you to incorporate a clock image from any cartridge. You may use any colors you'd like for your card. Wait until you see the designs that Team #1 have for you. It's surprising how many different cartridges have clock images on them. We have quite the assortment to our samples, seven different cartridges. Your sure to have one of them. We can't wait to see what your designs look like. Just link your card using Mr. Linky below by midnight on Tuesday, January 11. Have fun!
