Long time no blog! I hope you have all been very well! I know that I have had a nice little break, but am back to post wonderful projects for the most wonderful blog followers around!
As you know, Joy and I went on the Cricut Cruise and had a most fabulous time. If they do it again next year and you do not win a free cruise, you should definitely buy the trip! It was truly one of the best trips I have ever been on! We met such wonderful people and had a great time teaching our Cricut classes. Seriously, meeting some of our wonderful followers was truly a privilege!
Ok, now today's card was actually something I was supposed to post the day we left for the cruise. I was so busy, so I totally forgot. It was not until Joy asked me what happened did I realize that I had not posted. AHHHHHHHHH!! I felt like a total moron!
The cartridge used is the Martha Stewart Elegant Cake Art cartridge. This little tulip is a hidden treasure I think. I just love it!

Thank you for featuring Martha Stewart, I now know I will be buying more cartridges. (Actually I don't think I will ever stop buying them!)
I enjoy seeing how Y'all use all the cartridges, but I thought Martha's carts only worked with the cake machine. Guess you can tell I am pretty new to all this.
