I made an envelope today on my Cricut, it was originally to fit the card I made for Greg but It turned out too small so rather than waste the envelope I made a cute little card to fit it. It's so cute I love the way it came out. I used a plain white card cut out on the Cricut. I then matted with the lime green paper and cut out some scalloped squares from my "Cricut Accent Essentials" cartridge in both white and a lovely blue floral print. I then cut out a circle in orange. I used my "Songbird" cartridge to cut out the sweet little fence and bird and layered a bluebird on top of that. I tied around some ribbon and put in a pin I made with some beads and finished with a little epoxy sentiment I had in my stash. I'm glad I decided to make this one and re-use the envelope!

A toast to us
I was able to do some more scrapping tonight as I had to go out this afternoon and Greg came for a walk with me in the lovely warm weather (26 today!), so he made up the time for a couple of hours after dinner this evening so I busied myself with scrapbooking our St Lucia photos. I made a page on some photos of us in our suite. One evening when we went out for dinner at the resort our Butlers decorated our bed with a message and rose petals and some champagne, it was wonderful. I also love these photos of Greg, his smile is just the best. I used my "Songbird" cartridge for the label at the top and my "Cindy Loo" cartridge for the font. I added a little stick on flower in the corner. Then I cut out the champagne bottle complete with sparkly bubbles at the top which are gemstones and glasses from my "Simply Charmed" cartridge and the "Cheers" sign. I added some journalling that I typed on the computer as well as some little circle sayings and a lovely ornate metal I love you I picked up at Michaels the ohter day on clearance - bargain! Love this page (as I do all of them, such good memories!)
