Altered Cricut Expression

Okay, I finally got brave enough to paint my expression. It started out the standard cream color. One thing I can say, though the project I discovered I am NOT a painter!!

Altered ATG

I rushed over to Michael's, with my coupon of course, and picked up the pink ATG while they still had some in stock. Some proceeds do go to the Susan Komen cure foundation. Anyway, after I got home I just HAD to decorate it. See what you think............

Teddy Bear Christmas Card

Here is both the outside and the inside of my Teddy Bear Christmas card. I took a Teddy Bear from the Cricut Christmas cartridge, flipped it and welded it, then cut it out with my Cricut Expression. The cardstock is textured, then I hit it with some stickles, inked it, and slapped a bow on it. The Cricut cut the eyes and nose out, couldn't keep it from doing it. So, I used a black sharpie to color the cream cardstock, then put liquid glass on top of the black. It filled in the holes nicely and has given the eyes shine and the nose a wet look. I recut the shape a smidge smaller on cream cardstock, inked it, stamped Merry Christmas on it, and glued it to the inside. My kids love it, so I'm hoping a soldier's little kid will be happy to get it. :-)

We need prayer!!

My 40 year old little sister received word from her doctor today there is nothing more they can do for her. He told her she only had a couple of weeks left. My husband and I will be flying out to see her Nov 12. Please pray she can hold out until we get there!
