Congratulations Graduates- Class of 2012!

Megan wanted to cheer on classmate

Megan made this for her classmate's birthday.

Saying thank you for baseball field

This card  took Megan a while to make- see her pink wheelchair- but it was a fun way to say thank you to the parish that allows her school to use their baseball field.  The kids had a really fun baseball season this year.

  Megan made sure each player had a bat, ball, and glove. (This was a LOT of cuts on the Cricut Expression! Lots of glue too!)

Megan made glittery birthday card and gift bag for friend

Megan's sister, Erin, turned Sweet 16!

Sweet 16 card for sweet classmate

One of Megan's classmates in her "cricut class" turns 16 this week.  This sweet girl gets a card that made Megan smile as she made it.  Among the elements used were the Forever Young cartridge, Circut Classic Fonts cartridge, the Cuttlebug and also the Cricut Craft room.  Happy Birthday, Emma!



spring flowers for charity

Megan made almost 100 flowers with the cricut - each designed and "blinged" differently.  These 4 inch flowers were used as favors at a charity event held by her Columbiettes Council.  Megan started making them months ago as she was recuperating from surgery.  She even decorated them during therapy!

Looking to the Future Birthday Card

Megan loved making this birthday card.  She wanted the alien, spacehip, rocket, astronaut and lots of stars.  Lots of cuts with the Cricut but it was fun.  She loved the sparkly paper although we got glitter on everything.  We had a lot of fun with this one- and used a lot of glue.  Time to clean up now....

Recovering from surgery, working harder than ever.

On January 19th, Megan had surgery done on her right hand- tendon lengthening to open her hand to make it easier for her to use.  A very uncomfortable surgery- the cast was just removed February 15th- but it did not stop her.  She was using her Cricut machine just two days after the surgery and has not stopped since.  She has made birthday cards, valentines, and is even making dozens of favors for her Columbiettes chapter.  This card is for a very dear friend and used a new 'wobble' spring- the dog with the hula hoop actually moves. 

Megan made a Valentine for Buddy Valastro

As a family we love to go to Carlo's bakery in Hoboken.  The site of the Cake Boss show on TLC is a bakery where everything is delicious.  Buddy, the Cake Boss, was not there that Monday in January, so Megan left her valentine for him.  A generous man, a great bakery- it is worth the trip there! (She loves to treat her classmates to cookies brought back from there.)
