Weekend Getaway!

DH and I left for an anniversary weekend getaway to Gatlinburg. Our lives have been so hectic for the past year so this was a much needed escape! He was so sweet to spend one morning in the huge scrapbook store!

My First Cricut Cake~

This is my first ever fondant cake! I used my checkerboard cake pans. I first iced my cake with buttercream frosting. While the buttercream frosting was drying, I made the marshmallow fondant. I will admit..I was a little intimidated by all this cake stuff..I don't spend much time in the kitchen! The MMF was sooooo easy to make! I did encounter a few problems but I figure they will work out with some practice.

I had a little helper with me in the kitchen today...doesn't everyone need a little helper to keep the beaters clean?! LOL

New Cartridge Preview~

"Go Wild" layout using Create a Critter

I think Create a Critter is my favorite new cartridge! These little monkeys were fun to make. The paper I used is from the Animal Crackers stack.

Bling for my Gypsy stylus~

I decided my Gypsy stylus needed some bling..not only to jazz it up a bit but so I can find it easily. These were fun and easy to make :)
