Looking forward to Autumn

I think this little candle holder is delightful! Don't you? 
It is a recycled up cycled canned chicken can. 
The paper pack I used (Avonlea) is no longer available but would look just as wonderful if it was made using any of the co-ordinated paper packs, also the accents are Bitty Opaque Pearl Adhesive Gems in Mocha.
I love my Cricut and the Artiste cartridge. I wanted to use it in a different way to show the versatility of the cuts. This is made entirely with the Cricut and the Artiste cartridge, including the sentiment. Although is could also be stamped with any of the sentiments.
I think I will be doing a tutorial on how I made this cute candle holder if anyone is interested...??

Showing Team Spirit

Today I finished up a wreath idea that I have had floating around in my head for a while and have had the supplies for it too!! I was inspired by looking through the Close To My Heart Idea book! I was actually supposed to be working on some cards but sometimes you just can't help but do something entirely different! I think it turned out great and even better so does my daughter!

 I used the Artiste Cricut Cartridge for the lettering and for the flags. I modified them a bit in Cricut Craft Room. I used Team Spirit for the volleyball.

Happy Creating!
