Almost Turkey Day

so, it is almost Thanksgiving. One more day of work then a nice break. My brother and 2 of his kids are coming up to celebrate with us. Then of course there is Black Friday. Yes, I am one of those nuts out at 5 am looking for the deals. Not sure what the game plan is yet but I will be out there with the rest of you.

Actually got some scrapping done today. Did 5 12x12 layouts. I get much more done out of the house because there aren't as many distractions. Trying to work my way through several months of kit club packets. I am SO behind.

Adding Gypsy files

I will be adding a few Gypsy files to my blog file list shortly. Two new word books. One is Grandkids. I made it in CDS and saved it as a Gypsy file. The 2nd one is another word book for Puppy. I made this one before the Gypsy update that gave us multiple mats so there are multiple files - basically one for each letter, one for the puppy, and one to print all the letters. Leave me a comment if you have any problems with them. This is my first time sharing so I am sure I have a lot to learn.

Whew, it took a while but I did it...

I got my Gypsy, Design Studio, and Cricut all updated. The update that didn't work and was pulled has now been updated and seems to work. We can share CDS and Gypsy files between the 2 systems and can now share Gypsy files. Woohoo. Some other improvements are great too - like multiple mats for one design, welding flipped images, and all my cartridges are now green in the cartridge list. Sweet.
