Cricut Mats

this is what you will need for this process
Hello everyone I wanted to share with you all how I clean & reuse  my Cricut Mats over & over again. I learn  this @ Custom Crops, I will share the site with you at the end.  I  use "Stick Away" which is adhesive cleaning agent,  I then use that old credit card to scrap the old sticky glue away,  I have 2 different ways I have tried for making mats sticky again the first one is the "Stick & Spray" which is a temporary repositional adhesive, the other way I have tried and also like very much is using the "Zig 2 way glue" the big glue stick. When you do first step which is the Spray Away, spray on let sit for 30 seconds then start scrapping away old glue with that old credit card, wipe clean, then either one for making it re stick, Spray & Stick spray on mat let sit for 30 mins before using touch with your hand first, it should stick to your hand, when using the Zig 2 way glue stick run the stick back and forth on mat, also let the mat dry for 30 mins before using again do the test with trying to see if mat sticks to your hand, here are some pics I would like to share with you all.

Another Valentine Card

Hello all I still have lots of scraps left to be used in a good way so I am doing my best at trying to use them as much as I can, that is one of my goals this year for crafting is to use my scraps as much as possible and then of course use what I have here first before buying more, hehe but buying is fun!   Ok here is my card I made I hope you all will enjoy it.



Recipe for this card is:
K & Company Paper (Smitten)
Sizzix embossing folders (Love Set)
Martha Stewart Border Punch (Hearts)
Red Heart Stickers
Red Card Stock

The LOVE is just cut out of the paper pack, then I used corner rounder to round corners,  the border paper with heart punches is the reverse side of this paper pack, and also the light brown paper is a reverse side of the pack too.
Thanks for stopping bye again and please be sure to leave me your comments I always love to here from all of you, until next time  Hugs Debbie :)
