Another Elegant Edges Project

Yet another project using this awesome and versatile cart. called Elegant Edges from Provocraft. While viewing a UT video of a similiar mini album, I decided to see what my EE had to offer and it rose to the occasion. Using the cartridge and my Expression ( a personal diecutting machine) I found a similiar shape as the one I saw on the UT video. It was perfect. I cut the shape out at 51/2 inches using the frame and shadow features found on this cart. I chose CS from various designs that I have in my paper stash and Viola! A mini that's elegant and handy to show off. So get your hand on this Cricut cart. You won't be disappointed.

PUZZLING

It's not puzzling how versatile the Cricut cartridges can be. I created this little mini using the My Community cricut cartridge. It has puzzle feature so I used lightweight chipboard and my Cricut Expression to help me design this. You can see more pages on my YouTube Channel: FayRaiDesigns, or click on the button on the right hand side of this page. It is "my new channel". TFL

Rolodex-Style Mini





Who cannot say that inspiration is everywhere. I was recently inspired by Kathryn (Life on the Scrap Beach) who created a Rolodex-style mini album that featured her family memories. As soon as I saw the project, I knew I had to make one. So I did and I enjoyed every minute of it. Here's the project:
