How I Make my Cricut Mat Sticky Again!!

Happy Wednesday everyone!!!!  Okay I have never shared my method of getting my mats sticky again.  This is what I use:

First I spray it with this:


Then I wipe the mat off per the instructions on the back of the bottle.  Sometimes, depending on how much build up is on my mat....I repeat the process!

After the mat is dry I apply glue to my mat using this:


The glue can be used in two different ways.  Use it like typical glue....just to adhere OR re-positional......apply the glue and wait for it to completely dry.  I typically do this while I am working on another project bc I have 0 patience so I have to keep my hands busy with something else or I will go insane trying to wait it out.

Recently I discovered repositional mod podge!!!!  Well not very recently....maybe 2/3 months ago!!!  However I am going to give this a try once one of my mats (I have 6) needs some sticky again!!!  I will let you know how that goes.  Oh this is the mod podge...


Well....that's how I make my mats sticky again!!!

Until next time....

Baby's First Birthday Banner

In an effort to get my name and craftiness out to the world.  I am always looking to help anyone with crafty decor.  I recently made a train birthday banner!!  I had a blast making it....I have two girls...so whenever I can do something for a little boy...I am super thrilled!!  Here is a pic of the banner....


Of course I used my Cricut Mini!!!  Im pretty sure it's tired of me.  Lol  Want to download the project I am going to post the link below!!


I also used the Adjustable Marker Holder from Amy Chomas to write the "happy 1st birthday"! Next I am going to get the embossing tip from her site!!!  Super cool!!!

Until next time....

Craftroom Cut Files That I Post

Hello everyone!!!  I was just sitting here thinking about the cut files that I post.  I initially got the idea to post them for download bc of me being el cheapo!!  I hate having to spend $60 on a cartridge and I may only need on object; I just know there are others our there that feel the same as I!  Soooooo I was like "hey I probably can create things with just the basic shapes"....and VOILA...it worked!  So anywhoo.....Im sure you would like to see that I actually use the files that I create!  So I am going to start posting some that I actually put to use!! Stay tuned for my next post!!  I will put a link to the file....so if want it you can just click and it will take you to that post and you will be able to download it!!!

Until next time....
