How great is this Valentine's Day cookie wreath...

As I mentioned in an earlier post, I was recently sent a Cricut Expression 2 by the nice folks at Cricut, and I've been busy.

I have to say, there is a learning curve to using your Cricut, so don't be surprised if it takes a little while to get the hang of it. That's what I discovered for myself, and is also why I recommend starting with some easy projects, like those found on the Tags, Bags, Boxes & More 2 cartridge. (Perfect cartridge for party people, btw.)

I spend a lot of time writing about kids' parties, so I thought it was only right to show off some of my favorite grown up parties. Check out how original and creative these are!

Creative Girl Productions' Hip Hop 80's Party -- The money backdrop is so perfect and the birthday boy looks totally authentic in that photo.

I just discovered that you can tint mason jars and make them look like this, and all it takes is a little Modge Podge and food coloring. I found this easy tutorial put together by Heidi of My Beautiful Mess.

What I like about this tutorial is that Heidi paints the jars on the outside instead of the inside like most tutorials I've seen. This way, if you want to use them as floating candle votives or as flower vases you can. Personally, I think I'm going to use them to store odds and ends.

I love gingham for Easter. It's got a vintage feel that makes me feel like I'm in a different time. Well, Andressa at Twinkle Twinkle Little Party designed this delightful "Gingham Bunny" collection for us that is just too sweet! Check out the little bunny tails.

The collection includes: cupcake toppers, thank you tags, water bottle labels, straw flags, tented cards, cupcake wrappers, and a "Happy Easter" banner.

If you need to get organized, here's an easy recycling DIY project using cardboard boxes that our creative contributor Wanessa from Wanessa Carolina Creations put together.

With this tutorial, you can take any box, make it beautiful, then add these free editable labels so you know exactly what's inside.
