    Congrats to all the winners this week...I have held my breath hoping to see my name =)hahahahah

    to the cuttlebug spot team:

    Since I am a newbie to the world of card-making and cricut-ting (no a word but hey it's cool) so I thank you for your ideas to inspire me for my projects.

    I would love to see gift wrapping ideas that could be possibly made with the cuttlebug or cricut. Since I don't have a cuttlebug I would love the chance to win the folders to start me on my way =)
    Cheers
    Alice

    I am new to the CB spot so anytime you can share new techniques and things you can do with the CB it is very helpful. I hope to start doing some challenges soon. As far as themes, I would love to see a footbal theme (NFL season is here), a fruit themed challenge, favorite childhood memory, Movies, and I am a big fan of sketches too.

    I have made several masculine cards because I have 6 BILs - once you make one, the rest are easy.
