Pazzle and Make The Cut

Hey how cool!!!! Andy made a plugin for the Pazzle and Make TheCut!!!! I am doing the happy dance here. And I do not even have my cutter yet!!! lol I have just downloaded it and installed it. Did not have any problems at all. Make The Cut is a great piece of software. Andy puts so much time and effort into making something that is fantastic for all of us crafters. He tries to make it compatible with nearly all the cutters on the market. I like that because there is such a great variety of them available. If you have a project in mind then there is a cutter out there that will cut it. I am not a retailer of his software, I am just a end user that is so pleased to have a company out there that actually listens to it's users. I have only just scratched the surface with this software but I am going to take the plunge and try to learn some more of the complicated steps. There is a user group out there that is just full of tutorials on how to do just about anything with it.
Here is the link to it
Make the cut user group
And here is a link to all the plugins that Andy has made for his software. Make sure you are running the latest version before installing them.

Hope you enjoy.

Furlough????

Ugh!!!! I just wish both sides of the government would come to some sort of agreement with the budget. If not Dave just told me that he could be furloughed this Friday. And there is a rumor that they might not pay us back the money they owe us if we do get furloughed. They did the last time this happened. This really stinks. Thank god we have a little in savings. I hate to think of the families that live paycheck to paycheck. It could send them over the edge.

Happy Spring

It is finally spring here!!!!! The daffodils and tulips are in bloom. I love this time of year. It is soooo pretty. In fact I am sitting here in my living room with all my doors and windows open with a nice spring breeze blowing and the sun shining!
Dave found another job to apply for. This one is actually IN Yosemite National Park in California. It would be working for the national park service. I visited there once as a young child and fell in love with the park. I have always had a secret wish to live near the park or even just go back to visit. There would even be a chance that we could live IN the park. But I am not going to hold my breath on getting it. With all the non luck that we have been having to do with new jobs I doubt that we will get it. But it would be nice.
Here are a few of new cards that I have been working on. They are all spring colors. :-)



I used my imagine and my new mothers day cart and loris garden cart to print and cut out the center flower. The white edger was cut with my new Martha Stewart punch. The rest is out of my stash.



The pearl butterflies are from Prima the purple oval is from one of my new cuttlebug cut and emboss folders. The green butterfly in the center is cut out using a new die from Marianne Desgin dies from England.



The white border is cut from one of my new Martha Stewart punches and the rest is from my stash.



I used a Pampered Pets embossing folder by Papermania from England. The rest is from my stash.
