Cricut Circle Member

I now belong to the Cricut Circle Club.   WhoooHoooo!   I never thought in a gazillion years that I would become a member because it was very costly when it first began.  But now Provocraft made it that you can use your Cricut Reward points (3000) to become a member.   If you’re unfamiliar w/ how the club works:-

This yearly membership includes:

• Cartridge of your choice offered for membership
• 10% off of all purchases made on Cricut.com
• Free shipping on orders over $50 made on Cricut.com
• Exclusive promotions on Cricut.com

In anticipation of becoming a member, I made my very own Cricut Circle emblem/thingie.

How this all started was I was soooo excited about becoming a Circle Member that I literally drove my hubby nuts by me chanting:-  “I’m a Circle Member.  I’m a Circle Member”.  He retorted w/:-  "I’m going to call you 'Loopy' from now on."   J

Hence, me getting a “Circle/Loop” to make into an Circle emblem/thingie.

I started w/ an unfinished plant stake that had a chalkboard in the circle part.  I painted it Cricut green.  Actually the real color is "Apple Orchard" from Plaid.  I looked up the color on the Net to get the RGB codes for it.  Then I utilized my Cricut Imagine for the RGB codes and flood-filled the Cricut circle rim w/ the color.  It was a bang-on match!!!  I cut the shape out numerous times to make it sturdier and even flipped the image so the back of the circle-rimmed shape was green, too.  Very pleased how it all turned out.  J

Attached a blinged-up crown on her head, added gems around the face perimeter, and a bow for the final touch.  The gems mimic the colored polka dots in the bow.  Wrote “Circle Member” w/ chalk on the board.  

Here she is in all of her glory:-

I think she’s looks pretty divine, eh?   Now, I don’t have to keep chanting that I’m a Circle Member.  I can just look at my Circle Club emblem/thingie and I know that I am.  LOL
