I made the Cricut Chirp Newsletter again! Yeah!

Some of you might remember back in Feb 2008 I made the Cricut Chirp newsletter with my "BATHTIME" layout of the girls. I recently made one of the December 2008 issues of the Chirp with my Christmas layout entitled


"Christmas is FINALLY here"

It's YOUR Day! (woogies birthday layout)

 Our german shephards birthday is this Jan 24th so I thought I would make a page for his birthday! The girls are planning a little birthday party for him. Can't wait. He will be 5 and he is my oldest kid! lol

I used Paper Pups, Celebrations, New Arrival and Christmas Cheer Cricut Cartridges on this layout. 

Paper Pups: dog bone on photo mat, little dog bones in bowl, dog bowl, dog food (I used the food from the dog bowl cut out and put it in the bag of bones at the top to make it look like tissue paper) fire hydrant
Celebrations:Dog Border (I punched the holes myself), square tag (photo mat), dots at top of page are from the circles on the square tag, It's Your Day page title, party hat by presents, balloons
New Arrival: presents
Christmas Cheer: bag for bones

2008, 2009 Medical Expense Deductions

For those of use that have a massive amounts of medical expenses each year I have found an article/checklist that will be helpful when trying to use your medical expenses as a deduction this tax season. There is also a link to the IRS Publication 502 that has an itemized list of expenses that can be used as deductions.

250 Valentine's Day/Love Scrapbook and Greeting Card Sayings, PageTitles and Quotes

Back by popular demand…I have had such a great response from my best bugs on Cricut and on my blog that I decided to keep the lists coming. I have previously complied lists for Halloween and Christmas/Winter sayings and page titles to help mainly myself in scrapbooking but thought others might benefit from it too. So I went and made a list of Valentine’s Day/Love titles. Some of these could be used for weddings too but I am currently working on one more specifically for weddings that will be ready in the near future.
