Question about Cricut

Hey everyone out there in blogger land! I have a question! I have a cricut, just a small one, but I want to be able to use cutting files from other places. Can someone tell me how this can be done? I've heard of "Sure-Cuts-A-Lot" but according to their website, they do not support Cricut machines. What does this mean? Can I still use SCAL with my cricut or can I not use it? HELP! I want to do so much more with my Cricut and I don't want my husband to think he made a mistake in purchasing it because I'm so limited on what I  can do with it! Thanks for any and all comments/help you can give me!
Have a wonderful week-end!
Blessings!

"Bee-lated" Birthday Card

Good morning! I apologize for not having posted in so long! Life has gotten really busy this summer and being sick and not wanting to do anything didn't help! It's really bad when you don't even want to go into your favorite place in the house, you craft room! But, I'm feeling tons better and was able to make 3 cards in one hour the other night! Woo Hoo! Anyway, here's a simple "Bee-lated" birthday card I made for a girl at work who's birthday we celebrated a little late. I thought the bees on this paper were perfect for this card!

Enjoy and have a blessed day!

Summer Marci

Happy Wednesday to you! Here's a little sunshine to brighten your day! I've used Beach Marci to make this fun little birthday card for my niece. My favorite thing about digi's is that you can make them bigger or smaller to fit your specific project. In this case, I needed her a little smaller. The background was a freebie digi by Pholkart. I used stickles to make various parts of the card sparkle. What do you think?

Thanks for stopping by today! May your day be filled with many blessings!

Patriotic Tilda

Oh my goodness! I bought this Tilda with Hawaiian flower in hair a couple weeks ago and finally got to use her! I made this patriotic Tilda card for my June Magnolia-Licious yahoo group mingle. It's so much fun to be part of this group! If you look closely at Tilda, you can see many sparkles, including her sparkly red slippers! (I'm from KS, so I LOVE red sparkly shoes!) Hope you enjoy her, mingle partner!

Tilda can be purchased from Magnolia-Licious

Thanks for stopping by today!

Blessings!

Mud on My Face

Do you sometime forger important things and feel like you have "mud on your face"? Well, I forgot to send our Pastor's son a birthday card last week, so I made this one for him! Carly had a fun sketch this week on her blog and I wanted to see what I could do with it, then while shopping the other day I found these little fun shaped puffy stickers that were perfect! Then I found this little bear digi from Bugaboo and knew exactly what I wanted to do with Carly's fun sketch!

Isn't this little bear adorable with mud all over him?!? I was very pleased at how perfect everything came together for this card, first the sketch, then the stickers, then the occasion, and finally the image!

Thanks for stopping by my blog! You should join Carly's challenge if you haven't already! I'm sure she would love to see what you've created using her sketch! OH! I almost forgot! She's giving away and adorable elephant digi that she drew, too, if you join her challenge this week! Hurry, you only have another day to join!

Have a blessed day!
