Awwww.... good morning friends!!! This week over at Stamp n' Scrap Hawaii, we are featuring Chalsie of Paper Kisses as our 2nd Aloha Blogger. Every other week, we will pick a blogger that creates, and blogs, and we ask her a few questions. She answers them, and shares a few of her creations. The next day, we share with you what this Aloha Blogger has inspired us, by creating something that we've seen off of her blog. Now, this can be ANYBODY that blogs. Right now, we are featuring those of Hawaii... but when we run out of Hawaii bloggers, we will be looking for others out there. So if you have someone in mind, and would like to challenge us in creating her projects, and featuring her on SSH, please email stampnscrap808@gmail.com to have us check her out and hopefully she'll agree with being featured. =0)
Anyways, after finding out that Chalsie was our featured blogger, I wanted to create some kinda box that Chalsie had. I wanted to use my Cricut, and wanted to make something that I could cut with my cricut. Well, I saw this gable box that Chalsie created, and I knew that it was what I wanted to create. But because I knew that it would take me more time to "create" it on my Cricut, than to put it together, I had to put much thought into this project. I finally 
realized that I could create it using my most recent purchase of the Sure Cuts A Lot program (Thanks for pushing me, Eunice!!!). Oh my goodness... what this program can do is totally OUT OF THIS WORLD!!!! There's just too much explaining to do about this program, but just trust me - it is awesome!!! For those of you that don't own the DS program because it isn't compatible with your MAC - this program is something you might want to consider.
With the program, I was able to create this gable box. I had SCAL cut it, and wha-la, all finish!! I put it together, and wow, how fun was that??! You bet, I will definately have more projects using the SCAL - and I can't believe how long I've put off from NOT purchasing it. I don't regret purchasing all those cartridges for the Cricut... this program is just another asset added to my collection of goodies!!! Yeeee haw!!!
Ok, I'm off to a busy day today... got Cy's orientation for school (K) and then all kinds of things going on.. can't wait, going to be a busy but fun day!!! Enjoy your weekend.... oh, and don't forget to head on over to Stamp n' Scrap Hawaii to check out what the other DT's came up with.
Link to cut file coming soon.
Blessings,
Congrats Chalsie! Her work is amazing!
ReplyDeleteAwesome box Jen and it was good to see you again! You're looking GLAM as always! Take care and see you soon!
ReplyDeleteCute Box Jen!
ReplyDeleteHi Jen! Your box came out super cute! I love the DP you used. Hope you are enjoying your weekend!
ReplyDeleteHey Jen! Wow, what an awesome box! Is it a program for the Cricut. I was going to buy the Cricut when I had saved up the money but i have so many gadgets that I don't use. Every time I visit your blog. .I want to run out and get it! LOL! I'm sorry I haven't stopped by your challenge site and played along! I'm now driving my daughter to school . . .you know, the 50 mile one way drive and it's been messing up my life schedule big time. I'm trying to figure out a routine where I can still fit all the things I love to do. It's been difficult to fit them all in! I'll be sure to fit in some time this week to play along! HOpe all is well!
