Cricut Artiste Baby Shoes! OH Baby!

My niece asked me to craft these for her baby shower. She used these darling little paper shoes as favors filled with candy and treats for several of the guests. From our Cricut Artiste cartridge, pg 63. She supplied the materials but I did get some glacier and smoothie papers in there! I added some of our retired silver glitz glitter gel around the sole edges to seal the two pieces well. Try it! Get your Close to My Heart Cricut Artiste cartridge HERE:

PML Art Card...Smile

I think my son is going to love this card when he receives it! I am tucking a Panera gift card inside! I have made these cute & handy cards since I first discovered them on the SplitcoastStampers blog back in 2008. Decided it was time to revive this cute card again. I used the "Smile" card from our "Chalk It Up" Picture My Life cards. Once again I will say, the artwork is so wonderful with all EIGHT Picture My Life sets.
