Disneyland Autograph Pages


These two 8" x 8" pages were for a swap on the Cricut Messageboard.

Everyone is making autograph pages. Now from experience, Chip & Dale always wanted to sign their own page so that's what I did.

The copper tabs you see pull up and there is a mat for your photo with each of the boys.

I can't wait to see everyone's pages!

Cricut Finds


This is a "quilt card. The shape was cut using the Big Shotz Sizzex diecut. I don't have the Big Sizzex, but I do have a Cricut.

I try to buy cartridges that are multi-useful. Accent Essentials has this shape as a frame. You need the Design Studio to size the shape. If you click on the line inside the shape, right click & click on "Hide Contour" you can cut the same shape using Cricut & the Design Studio.

Pretty slick huh?
