The tree is from the Artbooking Cricut cartridge (CTMH). I outlined the leaves' shapes with different color markers and added some gemstones. I also colored the trunk in brown. Grass is a Fiskars border punch. Sentiment stamp is Wordsworth.

This card was inspired by the sketch #50 from CAS(E) this Sketch! challenge blog. I didn't have time to play, but when I saw the sketch, I knew exactly what I wanted to do...

My sons are sick...so, consequently, I'm sick...been feeling under the weather for almost a week now... =(
But my kids don't really care that they are sick, so my son N and I made this 3-D Pumpkin on Sunday...our first Cricut project!!! =)
I bought the Cricut Expression 2 a couple of weeks ago, but hadn't have the time to play with it...until 2 days ago! This project was just a test...I was playing with the Cricut Craft Room.


My son N helped me glue the pieces together. And now that I look at it, I should have used a solid color paper on the inside...oh, well! I just grabbed the first papers I saw...

P.S. I should have bought the Cricut a long time ago...but I was happy with my Slice!
But I'm glad I waited, 'cause I bought it on clearance at Hobby Lobby at a very good price! =)

Thanks for stopping by!

Stamps from Inkadinkado, and sequins...can't get easier than that! =)
