Tags, Bags, Boxes and More (Episode #5)

Happy Friday,
I’m happy to report my sister came home yesterday and it doing well. Thank you for all your comments, emails, and prayers. It means so much to me and my family….

Here is the Hello Thursday release for January. Click HERE. Kate’s ABC’s will be on my shopping list for sure. I just got Nate’s ABC’s and love it…

Today is the last video for the TBBM series. We’ll look at how to hide the score marks using your Gypsy to make the box on page 119 in the TBBM manual.

Gypsy Series on DVD will be available really soon (maybe as early as tomorrow). I’m expecting them to arrive today 🙂

Have a great weekend and enjoy your Tags, Bags, Boxes and more cartridge.

Tags, Bags, Boxes and More (Episode #4)

Good Morning Everyone,

First I wanted to give you an update on my sister. It was just our luck that yesterday morning we got hit with an ice storm. Our 1 hour drive to Jaime’s surgery took 2 hours. The surgery scheduled before my sisters was cancelled so when we got there she signed in and was off to surgery. We called down to the hospital this morning and she is doing well and has already asked the nurses to remind us to bring her an iced coffee. (for those that know my sister she always has an iced coffee in hand). We are going to have to wait a few days for some tests to be run and know what the next step is.  We will be heading down this morning to be with her today and hope that she is coming home today as well. Thank you so much for all your emails, comments, and prayers. Many of you asked and I’m sorry I didn’t get back to you yet about sending her cards. Here is my sisters mailing address.

Thank you so much everyone :0)

Here is a little gift bag that I made for my sister using Tags Bags Boxes and more. I’m going to stuff an Itunes card in there for her and then buy some other little goodies. Scott, Ethan and I will take it to her when she is home and relaxing….

I will try and get one more video for this series using the Gypsy…

A few of you who just received your Gypsy have been having troubles synching the free cartridges. Here’s a tip. Use the Cricut Synch software to update your Gypsy. Click HERE for the Synch software…

Tags, Bags, Boxes and More (Episode #3)

Happy Monday,
I can’t thank you all enough for the emails, comments, and prayers for my sister. She’s been reading them all. I will try to keep you updated over on my facebook page tomorrow. We won’t know until later today when he surgery is scheduled for tomorrow.

On to the Tags, Bags, Boxes and More cartridge series. 
Today is just a simple video on how to put together the cute little heart bag.
TBBM is probably one of my first cartridges and I just loved the little heart bag.


Check out the first two videos in the series:
Episode #2

and one more thing. For those that have TBBM on their Gypsy and want the manual click HERE and select the cartridge from the list….



A lot of you have been asking for places to get the TBBM cartridge, so here are a few suggestions that came from some of the followers. Memory Miser, Amazon (ouch expensive), Ebay, Craigslist, or just pick yourself up a Gypsy and get it for free (at least until the end of Feb)
Have a great day…

Tags, Bags, Boxes and more (episode #2)

Guess what…..It’s Friday!!!!! Woo Hooooooooo

Today is the 2nd episode of Tags, Bags, Boxes and more and we’re working on one of the tags with matching envelope. This tag/envie would be great in a mini album…hmmm

Biggest question I’ve had so far is where do I get the TBBM Cartridge. TBBM is a retired cartridge and I did some searching and other than buying a Gypsy and getting it as a free download (expires Feb 28th) you’ll have to check out ebay. I did find one or two at different online stores but they ranged around $100.

Here is episode #2..

Have a great Friday 🙂

Tags, Bags, Boxes and more

Hi Everyone,
Instead of starting the series next week I decided to start it today. My plan was to have a video for the series everyday next week, but I have some personal family stuff going on next week and I’m not sure what my days will be like. So I’ll have a video today and Friday of this week and a video Monday and either Wednesday or Friday next week.

Have a great day and enjoy the series….

Christmas Gift Packaging

Happy Monday,

This week’s Gypsy Spot challenge is Christmas gift packaging.
I used Cricut cartridge “Tags, Bags, Boxes, and More” and the “Christmas” solutions cartridge to make the gift box. I created the window on the gift box using the the tree from the “Christmas” cartridge and added acetate that I ran through my Big Shot with the Cuttlebug embossing folder “Snow Dots”. I also added a tag from the “Very Merry Tags” solution cartridge and dressed it up a little with some bling.
Supplies: Cricut Gypsy, Cricut Expression, Cricut cartridges-Tags, Bags, Boxes, and more, Christmas and Very Merry Tags; Pattern Paper-K&Co.; Ribbon-Paper Trey Ink, Acetate-Transparency sheets; Bling
Have a great Monday,

Episode #6-Gift Bag

This morning before I got my son up and ready for school and off to work myself I made this bag using Tags, Bags, boxes and more from the Cricut. I already posted a picture of it this morning but I had time tonight to make and edit the video. I didn’t think I would have time to get anything done this week. I’m already getting ready to work on another video tonight.

Happy Crafting!
Tina
