Make a Child Smile for Christmas & Some Halloween Popcorn Boxes!

Hello everyone, I have several cards that I'm helping out for my blogging friend Kris click here for all the deets.  These are simple basic cards just to make a child smile for Christmas... When it comes to any holiday it means alot to me, if I can help out I will be their to participate for any child that needs just that little love or attention.   Kris has several rules to follow with making these cards so please read carefully if you would like to participate. 
My next project are some popcorn boxes I made for Halloween.. Of course I don't have any candies yet to put in and make them look all pretty... But I just wanted to show  them to you  since I still had my cricut out.  I decided to you use my Tags, Bags, Boxes & More cartridge and did my popcorn boxes from that... And for your info I was told by many that  Cricut will no longer be selling this cartridge so it is a hot seller out their who ever has them for sale..  Their are so many awesome projects on this cartridge I'm glad I have it... Back then I got this only for $15.00 brand new from a garage sale that this poor old women hoarded and was moving back to Florida.  I was alittle too late when I found out she had a moving sale, she had things she told me she bought and never used it... and when I got this cartridge this and Doodle Charms were all that was left from the cricut  supplies. 
Anywho here are my boxes:
Well it's time for me to get back to my unfinished projects, I got back into that mold again about starting on one project and then jumping onto something else, so forth and so forth... So right now I got projects scattered in different directions on my table that I need to focus what I'm going to really finish up first.
So until then - hope I can get something posted soon.
Thanks for taking a peek!
Many hugs to you all!

  7. Hi, Shirl! Great cards! So sweet of you to help out the kids. What a steal on the cartridge also! Yeah, that one has been a hot seller for over a year now. People have been desperately wanting that one! You're so lucky! I love garage sales for good deals. In fact, I'm going back to see one lady tomorrow for more goodies that she is selling due to a move. YIPPEEE!!!
