Lori
AWESOME!!!! I LOVE holiday themes!!! Thanks for the cool contests!!
good luck to everyone.cant wait to see what everyone comes up with.
WOW, what awesome prizes, good luck everyone!
:)
PLEASE EVERYONE ENTER THE CONTEST EVEN IF YOU DO ALREADY OWN BOTH ITEMS, AFTER ALL, YOU COULD GIVE IT AWAY AS A GIFT........
So the Cricut is it the baby bug or the expressions?
Anywho I am going to give it a try---I am a begginner, but why not try anyways you never know right?
LOL
the cricut is both the baby bug and the expression......you can use either of the two...
Ohhh yay! I have been wanting a cuttlebug for sooo long! I will enter this contest! Thanks Regina!
I would love either prize!!! Let me put my thinking cap on!!!! thanks for the fun!
oohhh...I can't wait. I have been away for the past couple months and have so many ideas I have been wanting to do. This is perfect for a project I have been planning. I would love the cuttlebug and I have the software but I hold a fundraiser in February called crop out diabetes and it would be an awesome item to give away at the crop. Good luck everyone!!!
I did Halloween Goody Bags for Jacob's Class.

Is the creative genius behind the style of the bag.
The Cricut cut on this project is the circle tag. It is from accent essentials. I used the drippy goo punch for the border around the bottom of the bags and Stuido G stamps for the tags.
Enjoy!

Hey Regina! Thanks so much for hosting this contest again and again. Here:
http://pogwollysbloggie.blogspot.com
is my first ever entry to any of your contests!! I know it's nothing fancy, but, hey-- with three boys, it's the best I can do right now! ;o)
Alright, so after finding out my husband and I are going to have a baby, I am definately going to do this contest... I don't have much time left before he is born. I am doing to do something Christmas related, because he is going to be born near Christmas... This is going to be SOOOOO FUN!!! Thanks for posting the contest, and I would LOVE any of the prizes... us here in soon to be baby land, have been saving our money and not spending it... so, happy project making to me!
First off, thanks Regina and Provo Craft for the contest! Regina, I am a long time admirer of all your work. This is my first ever entry. Thanks so much for the inspiration to get started early this year.
My entry is a stocking holder for Christmas. It is a very simple design that uses Jasmine. I can't wait to use it this year!!

Hi Regina,
I always see your creations on the Cricut newsletters and I love them. I would love to join this site, is there anything special I need to do besides open a google account? Thanks, Lisa ( maddsmom)
Here's my submission!! :) http://cathyroggiatwitchell.blogspot.com/2008/09/halloween-candle-holder.html Thanks again for the cool contests and challenges! :)
i've never entered a contest yet i think i will have to join in on this one! cant wait to get off work to go home and think of some great projects!
I am making my Christmas cards this year, rather than all the same series I'm doing them all as originals. I have done ten so far. Here is the link to the two I'd like to submit for the contest:

It looks like I am finally going to have to get busy and enter a contest! Although it's rather intimidating seeing all these great entries. I really need a Cuttlebug!
I was experimenting with paper and folding techniques and came up with this design using the SYI and Celebrations cartridges.
Here is my entry into the contest.

Ok, here it is! I had this idea kicking around since around the time this contest was announced. Being the procrastinator I am, I finally got it done. LOL I wanted to show a few versions of the same idea. I used mulberry for one, and vellum for the other 2. Hope you like it! http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/nn251/thecutstudio/candleshades.jpg
Sorry, I don't think my whole URL posted and I can't see there's a way to edit it!
http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/nn251/thecutstudio/candleshades.jpg
Can the theme for the contest be winter or does it have to be a christmas theme
yes, a winter theme is fine....
Thank you
Here is card that I made using the pumpkins that MJ showed us how to make!

Hello! This is my first time entering any contest. For my first entry I made a halloween wall hanging. Good luck to everyone!
http://i419.photobucket.com/albums/pp277/scuba4two/DSCN0828.jpg
Now, here is my 2nd entry. It is a halloween tree centerpiece. I saw a kit to make a similar halloween tree from K and Company but thought I could make one better and cuter (or at least in my opinion) with my cricut. So, here it is. I hope it is okay that I got my idea from somewhere else and made it my own project.
