I would love to win this as blog candy.  I have been “lusting” after the letterpress for quite a while, but with the economy the way it is, I have been cutting way back on “non essential” purchases.  I am crossing my fingers and hoping to benefit from your generosity!!!  Wish me luck.  Rockin Robin Caldwell

Robin, I have sent you an e-mail, please send me your address.

Hi Everyone,

I went to delete a service that Go Daddy was billing me for, when I deleted it my entire hosting account went away.  Go Daddy said that I deleted the wrong thing, but I know what I clicked on and I am not buying it.  They offered to restore all files for $150.00 charge.  I had a file back up of everything up to January so I declined and will just live with out the last 2 months post.  At the time the blog went down I was holding a Blog Candy give away, I am going to stop that now and just choose a winner from the entries already received.  I have the e-mails of everyone that has entered.   I am going to announce the winner from the entries already received tonight and then take some time off from my blog and decide if I truly want to keep it going.

Here is a pretty swirled flower svg to cut on your cricut.

Today I had a little bit of time to work on another word book.  Here is a 2009 wordbook to cut on your cricut.  I just wanted a simple wordbook that I could embellish and put a few pictures of my kids in to give as a gift.

With the latest update to SCAL 2 I wanted to share how easy it is now to import a single wordbook svg into SCAL 2 and separate the layers and have them ready to cut on your cricut in just a few minutes.  I included the complete svg file in the zip file for download but also included the separate layers svg files as well for people still using scal1 software.

Can you believe stores already have Valentines Day items out.  I decided that I might as well get started on Valentine’s Day things.  I came up with a scalloped heart valentine box that you can fill with sweets for all the sweeties in your life.  Plus, it is just fun to cut this on your cricut and put it together.

I used Martha Stewart glitter on the outer hearts and a satin ribbon for the handle.  I used foam pop dots to secure the glittered hearts to the box.

I just downloaded the most recent update to the Sure Cuts A Lot v2 software and have been playing around with it.  It is so cool so I did a little video on it.

You can down load the update here. www.craftedge.com

I thought that this purse might be cute for my daughter to play with.  We used  some paper punches today and punched out little scalloped circles.  She calls them flowers, so I thought that she could put them in here.

Here is the purse svg to cut on your cricut.  The svg and the scut with score guide is included in the zip file.

Happy New Year!!!!  I can not believe that another year has come and gone.  I am thankful for my family, friends and all the blessings that I have received this past year.  I hope that 2010 finds you in good health with lots of happiness.  Today is the 1 year anniversary of mycricutscrapbooking.com.  I am thankful for each of you for stopping by and spending a little time here.

I have decided to celebrate this past year by having a give away.  The give away is 2 parts.  1 winner will win the entire blog candy give away.

Part 1

Yesterday I was shopping at Michaels and I came across the Sizzix Texture Boutique.  I have the Sizzix Big Kick that I just love but decided since I had a 50% off coupon and the machine came with a bunch of new folders that I would get it.

I LOVE this little machine and so does my daughter.  We had so much fun doing this together.  I cut the paper and made the sandwich and she turns the crank.  My sister stopped by today to wish us a Happy New Year and my daughter had a blast showing her how to use it.

This machine is so cute!

Here are the folders it comes with.

and more

In case you are wondering…. cuttlebug folders do work in it.

Here is a 5×7 christmas folder

Here is an A2 folder

I have some older Sizzix embossing folders and they work great as well.

Part 1 of the blog candy is this, brand new in the box, Sizzix Texture Boutique with 10 Bonus embossing folders.  (The pictures above opened were of my machine, yours will be sent new in box, unopened.

Part 2

The second part of the blog candy give away is your choice *up to 800 point value* of 1 cartridge that is currently available on the www.cricutrewards.com site.   You can pick the cartridge as long as it is in stock, I will order it and once it is delivered, will mail it to you.  Due to the time that it takes to get the cartridge from the rewards program the Sizzix Boutique will be mailed first and once the cartridge is received it will be mailed in a second package.

Rules

Please share one of (leave 1 comment on this post) your favorite cricut projects, experiences or story from the past year.

One of my memories from the past year that is a favorite is on a Sunday, I was working on my computer creating a svg.  I finished it and wanted to test cut it.  My daughter and son were standing on the couch looking at me (my desk is in the living room behind the couch) I told my son that mommy was going to cricut.  He got a huge smile on his face and said cric-cut, and would giggle and laugh.  My daughter said she wanted to cric-cut too!  I put a cartridge in and loaded the mat for her and let her push the button.  She was so proud of the Hello Kitty head that she cut and ran to show daddy that she cric-cutted.

I will read through the comments and choose 1 winner on January 9th.  Due to excessive international shipping cost this blog candy is United States shipping only, sorry.

Here is the New Years Joann coupon.  It is good for 10% off entire purchase (including sale items.)
