FUN AND FLOWERS WITH MY ECRAFT DIE CUTTING MACHINE

For a long time now I have been wanting and wondering what I would do if I had a die cutting machine. I have seen so many Cricket infomercials I could probably do one myself. Not to mention craft days on HSN. It was during one of those airings that I decided I wanted one too.

So when then next scrapbook airing came up I missed the portion about the new Cricket mini but, what I did catch was the segment on the new Ecraft machine. I fell in love! No no no, I did not just jump right in and get one. I did research, I read customer reviews, I watched videos about it on Youtube and gave my findings a lot of thought. I was satisfied. My hubby said yes. And then I ordered it. In HOT PINK!

I'm learning by trial and error. But for the most part I am having a blast as I go along. I have been watching Youtube at all the beautiful things you ladies are doing  everyday. One of them are the flowers you make. From the Velma Flower to the die cut flowers and lots of flowers in between. So I thought I would give it a try.

Here are some of the flowers that I made using my Ecraft machine and Tim Holtz alterations floral die. Hope you like them!
