Quicky post and free cup svg. file

Hello, I have been so busy cleaning my room...what a disaster it can get to be! I came to check my mail though, you know , can't stay way from pc for toooo long or I start getting cold sweats and foaming at the mouth! lol and I found this cute cup svg file. For those of you that have SureCuts a Lot or Making the Cut software you can use this file on your cricut machines.
   (Ions ago when Krystal was a baby, I used to have a hamster  I name "Sirbite Alot" lol that sucker bite me every change it could!!! Every time I see SureCuts aLot I think of him..aawwww lol anywayyyy...)

Click on the words "Grow Cup" and it will take you to my favorite site for free svg files...if you haven't worked with svg files you should give them a chance. They might save you some money on cricut cartdriges. Plus I will be using some svg files for my next project so get to practicing! lol  Ok well hope your enjoying whats left of your Monday. xoxoxo Besitos

and as always

Fun fun!

Hi all...Once again we had a great time at my Ustream class. Kat even brought a mini (she made me for my birthday) for show and tell. I really think she needs to do a class on how to make the pages! I'd like to learn myself. lol  The Mini tag album was fun and easy  huh?  We had a lil bit of a problem getting started, I think Ustream was not playing nice, but all in all I had fun. I really enjoy all the ladies that attend my classes, you make it so much fun for me!!!! I love it!!!
Also I wanna thanks Kathy for the lovely and thoughtful gift she sent me!!! THANKS!! you know me, I love getting gifts!! lol Appreciate you thinking of me.
Anyway...I have 3 projects in the making and I'm really excited!!!! But before I show them off, I need to convert my drawings to .svg files so I can get some help from Cricut cutting them. It would take me a day and 3 moons to cut what I have in mind by hand if I put out a kit. I haven't even completed them for me yet, but ohhh in my head they look awesome!!! lol  Watch it all turn into a scrapmare! no no...positive thinking!
Ok well ladies, thanks so much for watching and reading  and for all your support! LOVE YA ALL!!!
and as always....
