Jummping on the band wagon

So I decided to make the plunge and to start my own crafting blog. I live in an area that is not a huge crafting place, and I have zero friends who are into crafts. Crafting is even seen as a bit nerdy or silly among my friends. Even though I love it! Thus I am the "closet cricut crafter"!

I have always loved crafting and would scrap book here and there in high school. But in college I was not that into it. Now I am married with kids and I saw a Cricut infomercial one night. My Mom also saw it and called me to tell me I HAD to get it. I wanted it and I decided to take the plunge! I found the best deal I could (I got it on EBay from OhMyCrafts, with 8% back from bing and free shipping!) I watched tons of YouTube vids and looked up blogs and had NO idea there was a WHOLE world of crafting and I was just jumping in! I have started slow, I have been making cards and some cute wall art for my kids. This week I got my first stamps so I am starting in on that now! If anyone can recommend the best inks or techniques I would really appreciate it!

I also am going to start scrap booking soon! It is a little intimidating because I want to start from when my Husband and I were dating- till now and we have two kids! So there is an engagement and a wedding and then two babies! But I think if I just start making pages as the mood hits me I will be able to catch up and then keep up. Any advice on that?

I have a lot of pics of my stuff on my camera but this is bag and card was on my comp. This is from the beginning of my crafting, I have advanced since then!

Please follow me I will be posting my stuff and maybe make a vid some day?

Enjoy!
