First time I did a blog hop and this one is fun great to meet the MPS Design Team.

Items I made using cricut for my college reunion.

I used the lamp image from the Inspired Heart Lite Cricut Cartridge. This is the closet I found to the Florence Nightingale Lamp.

This is a place card that doubles as a Thank you card. Most of the sponsors for the reunion was able to sign them.

College of Nursing Reunion

I have been very busy for the last few months, preparing for my class reunion that will be held tomorrow in Los Angeles. I used Cricut for the projects I have been working on for the gala night.
I will be posting them after the reunion I want the guests to see them first. :)
