Hi everyone. Felling a little better today, so I decided to work on my Halloween decor. I thought it would be fun (and different) to vinyl my pumpkins this year. I found the BEST VINYL EVER!!! It is such a breeze to use. I get my vinyl from Signwarehouse.com. If you visit their website, go to SHOP and look for vinyl supplies and signmaking in the left column, then the brand they recommend is called ORACAL (for scrapbooking). It comes in 24 inch rolls that they can cut down to 12 inches. And they last forever!
I am so excited about how my pumpkins turned out. I used my Gypsy with my Cricut Expression. The cartridges were Give a Hoot, for the border above the spiders, and Happy Hauntings for the spiders. Enjoy. To make the vinyl stick better, I wiped the pumpkin with Alcohol to get the dirt and oils off.
Enjoy...Bug Hugs!
Here are the vinyl spiders I used.

Busy Bug Babble....Gypsy Fun News
Hello everyone, I have gotten a request from one of my subscribers, (Hi Jen! Congrats on your new Gypsy!! You are gonna love it!) I will be doing some videos showing the basic features of the Gypsy. I love using the Gypsy because of a couple of things. It gives me all of my cartridges in one place, that way I don't have to go searching through cartridges. It also expands the features of the Cricut. So come back and visit soon for some Gypsy Fun! Bug Hugs!

Busy Bug Babble...Wow, what a day we had at BYU Idaho
Hello Crafters. I have no card for today only pictures of our fun day. We had such a great day today. Here in Utah, the kids have a school holiday called UEA (Utah Education Association). It's a convention for teachers, and the kids have the days off!! Yipee...time to sleeeeep in (NOT).
Well, since they had no school and the weather was absolutely beautiful, we decided to head on up to Idaho to check out the Sand Dunes and the college grounds of BYU (Brigham Young University). We took a tour of the college which was so beautiful, and clean. It was a great place to visit.
We had a blast. Then we headed over to the dunes. It was amazing. There were people on ATV's and a bunch of people playing, and jumping off the dunes. It was like being on the beach with no water!! (Wish I was at the beach with water ! :-0)
It was the perfect day! Here are some pictures to share with you all. Bug Hugs!!

Project #27- Web Frame-30 DAYS OF CREATIVITY CHALLENGE - DAY 16
Hello Crafters, I have wanted to make this Web Card for a while now. Emma, over at My Creative Time has a challenge on her blog. The challenge is that you have to make a "shaped" card and use the color "Orange" somewhere on the card. I know this card looks "yellow" but it really is Orange I just couldn't get the lighting right today. I used Happy Hauntings Cricut Cartridge and Martha Stewart Glass Microbeads, they are so fun to use. Hope you like my card.
Bug Hugs!
