Hello, fellow crafter! I’m Carla
I started my blog back in 2021 as a way to share all the crafty fun happening in my little creative world—and to inspire others to jump into the joy of crafting with their Cricut!
I’ve always loved making things—whether it’s handmade home decor, heartfelt gifts, colorful cards, or playful party projects. I especially love creating floral arrangements and fake bakes that look good enough to eat (but please don’t!). My goal is to help you feel inspired and confident to create your own one-of-a-kind projects, no matter your skill level.
When I’m not at my full-time job, you’ll find me happily tucked away in my craft room, designing new SVGs and dreaming up fun papercraft and vinyl projects to share with you. I also love putting together Cricut tutorials to help make your crafting time even more fun and stress-free.
To me, crafting is more than just a hobby—it’s a creative escape and a way to brighten life with a little color, joy, and imagination. Whether you’re decorating your space, making gifts, or crafting just because, I’m here to help you fill your life with colorful, unique, and totally doable projects!

About Carla
Hey there! I’m Carla, the creator and owner of Carla Arlene Creations—welcome to my crafty little world!
I’ve always been a creatively crafty person who loves making things with my own hands. Since I was young, I’ve dabbled in all kinds of crafts and have always enjoyed coming up with my own designs. Decorating is one of my favorite creative outlets—right now, I decorate my home for 25 different holidays, seasons, and fun little reasons throughout the year. (Yes, 25—because why not celebrate everything?)
I’m also a proud wife and full-time caregiver to my best friend and husband, Brett, who has been living with MS for over 25 years. He’s my biggest cheerleader and the heart behind everything I do.
I was born with a color perception deficiency—yep, I’m colorblind! I can see colors, just not as many shades as most people, and sometimes I mix up hues like greens and browns or blues and purples. (My dad was colorblind too—thanks, genetics!) But that’s never stopped me from creating colorful, joyful designs that brighten up life.
Our sweet rescue cat, Brandy, keeps us company and adds a little extra chaos and cuteness to our days.
I opened my Etsy shop, Carla Arlene Creations, in 2021 as a way to share my handmade designs with the world. From paper crafts and home décor to unique SVGs for Cricut lovers, everything I create is made with heart, color, and a whole lot of fun.
Thanks for being here—it means the world to me! 💖
