We were so fortunate to have Ashlee Mason come and teach our first Cricut Expressions Basics class last week Saturday. You can check out Ashlee's awesome blog
HERE. A little about Ashlee...
- She's married to an active Marine and has an adorable little boy named Logan.
- She's a big Steeler's fan!
- Started scrapbooking in 2006 when she was pregnant with Logan.
- The Cricut is one of her most favorite tools..can't you tell?
I was so busy being blown away by all the things you can do with a Cricut..I totally forgot to take photos of the class. So instead, here's some of Ashlee's wonderful creations using that amazing little cutter!
This little guy has to be one of my favorites....I love how Ashlee used scalloped circles cut with the cricut to make the feathers. All the pieces were cut with the Cricut and then pieced together.
Here's an adorable little ticket book she created just for dad...awww how sweet! I love the shadowing of the letters.
And here's an ice cream cone and elephant that are just so sweet!
Lastly, here's an airplane that she cut and turned into a card. I love the black shadow around the plane and how she doodled the lines to outline the shape of the plane.
Thanks Ashlee for coming & teaching the class even after your long week of adventure with your sister *wink*! You are amazing and I can't wait to see what else you come up with!! I'll be updating the
calendar with some revisions we are making to the Cricut Classes, so be sure to check back.
