CTMH Cricut Artiste – Supply Holder Box / Decorative Box

I love to create things using my Cricut Imagine not just for cards or scrapbooking, but also that can serve other purposes.  That’s one of the reasons that I absolutely adore the Close to My Heart Cricut Artiste cartridge.  It has so many 3D objects that I can easily cut and assemble that help me either package a present pretty or even store some supplies (See my Notepad Holder w/ Pen).

I saw on the Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Blog that this week’s challenge was to make a project using some type of school supplies. I was also lucky to find that Bitten By the Bug 2‘s challenge was also Back to School! Well – I don’t have children and school supplies for me is my Laptop, Post it Notes, and Index Cards.  I know – I’m strange.  Because of my Fibromyalgia, it’s easier for me to take notes while typing (I type far faster than I can write) and then I use Post It notes as reminders.  Studying ALWAYS consists of the use of Index cards.  This is the way it’s always been for me.  I was always known as the index card girl.  Even at my current job – until recently – I was known for always having index cards and a plethora of Sticky Notes.

So Many Things to be Excited About

I’ve been very ill the past few weeks and the doctors don’t quite know why yet. My spirit has been down as I haven’t been well enough to craft much or even blog very much. Today, however, my spirits have lifted a bit.

My husband and I have been working on my craft room / office since the end of February.  It’s been slow going since I’ve been so sick.  He can only do so much in the room before I have to come in and organize the things into place so he can come back in and move things around again.  I’m so grateful that he has been such a good sport about it and so amazingly helpful.  I don’t know what I would do without him.

First – my craft room is finally in a place where my Imagine can fit on my table and be setup.  That’s the first exciting news because I think this weekend I’ll be able to craft!!

Second – I got in a bunch of orders I had placed – My Pink Stamper, My Creative Time, and the two new Imagine Cartridges. How much fun is it to get all these wonderful packages!!!

Third – and most important – I found that Megan Elizabeth Ink Edgerz came out!! I’ve been waiting for these and was so excited to see them! I think I was one of the first to purchase them – woo hoo!!

You’ve got to check these out – they are amazing and go so well with her Sparkle Lightz, Paper Layerz, and Chipboard Stickers.

A few colors -

I can’t wait until my weekend begins tomorrow at Noon so I can finish up my craft room enough to get craftin’!! :)
