My Cricut Mats

I just had to share this even without a picture!!!! Yes, I know!! I always say it's all about the picture for me. Anyway, I rediscoved a tip on how to extend the life of my Cricut mats and had to try it out. So I did and it worked. The tip you ask? Use the CTMH blue juicy glue and cover it on every area of your mat. Let the may lay for 45 mins come back and walah!!!! It is sticky once again. At the retreat this weekend someone from the group said they also use the brayer to put the plastic covering back on the mat when storing it. So I am doing that as well.

If you have any tips or tricks for your cricut mats I would love to hear them, please leave a comment or send me an email.

I do have lots to tell and share but I don't have time yet, I have to get my layout ready for my crop tomorrow night and I am running out of time!!!

ps, hi Lyla!!!!

Have a blessed day,

A birthday Card

Hi to all in Blog Land!!! It's a beautifuld day here in the Ozarks, the sun is shining and there is a gentle breeze. We were going to swim but we just didn't think it was hot enough so the guys are creek fishing and I am home getting the house in order. They asked me to go but I like being able to do housework without them under foot. I need to get the house in order so my week will run smooth. Especially with school starting we will have to do things differntly, like go to bed before 10:30!!!! Yuck, I wish we had more summer vacation, I have no idea where it went but it's GONE!!!!!

So Carl asked me to make his mom and niece birthday cards, I was happy to and surprized he asked!!!! So here is what I came up with and I don't think he liked his mom's. I love it, but Carl is not an out of the box kind of guy. You would never catch him in bright colors or hear him in a crowd of people, he is just a reserved type of guy. So I will probably hive that one to my mom and make another, so tell me what you think.

Have a blessed day,

Tracy
