My NEWEST crafty addiction...KNIFTY KNITTERS!!

The night of the Cricut Imagine launch, I tuned into HSN to watch even though I really didn't intend to buy. I got so swept up in it that I put it in my cart and was about to pay....and said STOP!! lol I reluctantly deleted it from my cart but, decided to reward myslef with something else since they were having a 24 hr craft sale. The knifty knitter combo caught my eye...and I decided that these and the crop-a-dile corner cutter would be my reward. The combo pack came with all the round, and rectangle looms AND the flower and pom-pom looms, and about 4 hooks and a few yarn needles. What a great deal! These are so easy and FAST! I made my first project (a hat for me) in 4 hours that included the time I spent watching YouTube vids to get started (casting on) and finished (casting off)!! I made a child's scarf and hat combo last night (about 6 hours start to finish). FUN!! Here are some photos!

I have been busy, though! I guess with being a mommy and going to school and Jason having 3 jobs it is hard enough to find time to craft let alone blog about it! :) Here's a few pics of what I have done lately. My husband got a new toy and I wanted to make him a custom case/stand and to protect the investment. I found a tutorial for an iPod/iPad case and used the instructions provided to adapt it for other devices. I decided to use the measurements of the device in the rubber case so he didn't have to put it on and take it off all the time. The tutorial was from Made By Marzipan and it is so cool! I used a John Deere fabric that I had originally bought to make him a scrub top but, I thought this was a worthy alternative! :) If you like it make sure you check out the Made By Marzipan site for this and all of the other awesome tutorials she has there! I also used my cricut to cut some paper stencils to use as masks while doing slip work in my pottery class and

I have been on a christmas craft mission! lol I made all of the gifts for my parents, siblings, and neices, and nephews! I have been having so much fun playing with some new toys I got for Chrismas! My favorite is SCAL 2 for my Mac and second is my new Bind It All! How fun it is to make professional looking word books using both! Now that the gifts are made I can start making some fun things for our family and for my daughter's room! I can't wait! Well, here are pics of everything I have worked on up until now! I did make some homemade chocolate covered pretzels and bag toppers for the treat bags but, am waiting to assemble them!! Now all I need is for the weather to cooperate so we can actually make the 3 hour trip to our family's christmas! It is looking less and less likely that that will happen as the forcast is calling for 14 inches of snow or more!
