The Cricut Expression....

Yes!  There will be a new Cricut Expression under the tree waiting for me Christmas morning.  :)  As much as I want to start using it now it would not be fair since I am also wrapping some stuff for my daughter that of course she already knows about and making her wait.  I have been wanting this one for a long time and I could not pass up Wal-Mart's black friday deal.
Cricut Expression Electronic Cutter, Aqua
Out of the four colors Wal-Mart has this year I chose the aqua blue one.  I was really wanting one last year but it was not in the budget.  This one is way cute though so it was worth the wait!  Did anyone else get any really good deals on something you have been wanting for a long time? 

In honor of my 'stinkin' cute' new Cricut I am sharing this card I made.  The phrase stamp is from the Punny-licious set by My Pink Stamper.  It works great with the Create a Critter cartridge.  I hope you have a crafty day!

Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving to all my friends & family.  I am hoping you spend this holiday with good friends, lots of family and good food.  What is your favorite Thanksgiving food?  Mine?  Mine is the Greenbean Casserole.  Yummm.  I use this recipe from French's.
FRENCH'S® GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE
Ingredients

2 cans Campbell's Condensed 98% Fat Free Cream of Mushroom Soup
1 cup milk
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 cans cut green beans
2 2/3 cups French's® French Fried Onions


Directions
Stir soup, milk, pepper, beans and 1 1/3 cups onions in 3-qt. casserole.
Bake at 350 degrees F. for 25 min. or until hot. Stir.
Top with remaining onions. Bake for 5 min. more.

What's your favorite Thanksgiving recipe? 

Now a little crafting goodness.  This card is so cute.  I used the Sizzix embossing folder on the tree branch for a little added texture.
