Cricut Cardz Challenge #64

Well hello there fellow Cricut LOVERS! Hey did I tell you I have the new Nate's ABC's SUPER excited about that. I may have to use it soon. ;)

So today is another fabulous Day over at Cricut Cardz Challenge and we are creating something a little different today.

We are to make a bookmark in honor of DR. SEUSS!!!! Well two awesome things about that I LOVE BOOKMARKS and I kind of have a thing for Dr. Seuss.

I know he is no longer with us but he is still an amazing man and I just love him. Also he was really influential in the works of Stan and Jan Berenstain and they are my UTMOST fave when it comes to books. I have books that are almost ;) 30 years old that are Dr. Seuss and Berenstain Bears. So just a quick shout out

THANK YOU MOM

for instilling the awesome quality of loving books into my life. That's what happens when you grow up with a mom that's a teacher. hehehe

Okay one more thing and I will get off of my soap box. I once read a quote and its stuck with me forever so I want to share it.

RICHER THAN GOLD

You may have tangible wealth untold;
Caskets of jewels and coffers of gold.
Richer than I you can never be --
I had a mother who read to me.
-- Strickland Gillilan (1869-1954)
Alright alright I'm done, here is my project for today!


Here's a list of What was used:
Cricut- Create a Critter for the top hat (cuteness right)
Ink- basic black for inking
Embellishments- Label buddy using red labels inside, rickrack for the top and a red snap from making memories
