Fun with Cricut

My mom really shocked me with a cricut for Christmas. I had been iching to find ways to use it.

I saw a clock like this on pintrest. I hated my own and fell in love with this. Because I like to do things inexpensively as possible, I used an unused paint canvas that one of the kids had gotten years ago, but did not do. Covering it with craft paper and modgepodge. I did another layer of mulberry paper I had in the house. Then came the cricut, cutting each letter and number in now time....the hands and clockworks came from the clock I hated, after painting them black....I love my new clock...cost...free!!!!



I love wall words. I had painted some in our bedroom, but did not like the hours of painting each phrase, knowing that if I wanted to change it all that work was for nought....then came my friend.... cricut

This phrase is in a small hallway back to the kids' rooms.



This one is temporary, as it is on the back of some kitchen cabinets that will be torn out when we remodel the kitchen...it works for today...




So many words....so little space!!!!
