The first time with the cricut

 Usually I bake for the father's day stall at the school, but I'm on the tail end of the flu that's been doing the rounds, and nobody needs to be exposed to that...

Yesterday I went to Kmart. Bought some $1 jars, $1 mugs and some chocolates.

Any other donated sachets and chockos or handmade biscuits will be packaged up today by other Mums aren't getting over the seasonal plague.

The cricut got a workout last night.

No, I did not create the SVG file myself. Why spend 30 hours if youré feeling under the weather when I can buy the digital files on etsy for $1.97?

If time is money, you can do the maths!

I hope you're getting ready for Father's Day in your own way.

First play with the cricut

So, here's the fun bit!

A first play with the cricut and I've created these mugs. 

Well, I bought svg files from Etsy actually (which is the cheapest easiest way to do this if you don't really know what you're doing)....

and decorated some donated mugs for the school's Buzz Cafe, run by students.

I felt a bee theme worked well.
