"SSSooo SSSpooky!" Cricut Cardz Challenge #117

Hello Everyone,

I made this S-fold card for Halloween using the Paper Doll Dress Up and the George and Basic Shapes Cricut Cartridges.

 Here is my card:

I cut the circle for the moon at 3" from the George Cartridge. I cut the tree at 3", cat at 1", bats at 1 and 1.25" and the fence at 1.75. I added some gel pen and stickles. The sentiment is from MCT Small talk.

Challenge Me Monday #124

Hello Everyone,

I hope you are enjoying this summer. I can't believe it is almost over. Well today there is another challenge over at the Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Blog.

Challenge #124
  2012 Olympics!
Make a project with a sports theme

Here is my project:

In honor of the Olympics I made this card. The font is cut from the George and Basic Shapes cart and the cheerleader is cut from the Paper Dolls Teen Scene. (boy do I like this cart). I used my copics for some shading and rock candy stickles on her pom poms.  I may use this card for an athlete I know to cheer them on. Well,  I hope you take a look at the rest of the design team, they have made some amazing projects for this challenge. Then I hope you take on this challenge and link up. Don't forget to have at least 1 cricut cut on your project.

Happy Crafting,

Challenge Me Monday #121

Hello Everyone,

Well it is Monday already and time for another Challenge Me Monday over at the FANTABULOUS CRICUT CHALLENGE BLOG. Today we have a really fun challenge, Wedding Bliss. Make a project for a special couple (Wedding, Anniversary). I made a project for a shower. I took a paint can and decorated it. I made this for a friend that is giving the shower. She is going to fill it with a cute Newlywed poem that was found on the internet. Example ( A lollipop - to help you lick your problems no matter how many there may be. A rubber band - to help you remember to be "flexible" in all things.A lifesaver - to keep you from drowning in everyday problems and 17 more.) By the way thanks to Anita for working with me on this project.

Here is my project:

I covered the paint can in white cardstock. I cut the top circle with the George Cartridge at 5.35."  I used the Plantin Schoolbook for the font (Kristin and Matt) welded it together on a curve. Also the heart which was cut at 4". The bride and groom were cut from the Sweethearts Cartridge and cut at 3".  The leaves were cut from the Flower Shoppe at 1.25." I used MCT rolled flower dies to create the flowers. I used beads, tulle, black ribbon and lace purchased from Hobby Lobby. Now I am so excited to see what you can create for this challenge. Once you create a project link it up to http://fantabulouscricut.blogspot.com so we can all be inspired. Don't forget to include at lease one cricut cut.

Happy Crafting,

Challenge Me Monday #112

Hello Everyone,

Well it is time over at Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Blog for another challenge.

 

 YOU DID IT! 

Create a graduation project.

 Remember to have at lease one cricut cut and please let us know what cartridge you used.

Here is my project:

I made 2 of these wallets and they are for the 2 senior co-editors of our high school yearbook.(Our colors are blue, gold and white) I thought this was the perfect gift for them (one male and one female). They are great students and have put a lot of time and effort into this. If you have ever done this before you know it is a great big undertaking. I love every minute of it. 

I cut the wallet out of card stock 6 3/4 x 10 1/4 and scored at the 2 1/2 and 6 1/2. The white cs is also cut that size and I used a Martha Stewart punch on it. The flap is cut 1 1/2 x 6 1/2 and is attached with velcro.

Inside I hid a camera and there are 2 mini books inside for pictures. I will be starting it off with some pictures I have taken. Prom was last week and I got a few pictures of that and probably graduation I will get some.

Here is the girly version

Cartridges used on blue, gold and white:

CHS - Babysteps cut 1.25"

Graduation hat - Locker Talk cut 1.25"

Camera - Locker Talk cut 1.5"

2012 - George and Basic Shapes cut 1"

class of - Gypsy font cut 1"

I also used my 1/2" corner rounder crop-a-dile and I used magnets on the mini books.

Thanks for stopping by and check out the other projects from the Design Team at FCCB. Once you check them out go ahead a create a project and link it up. Don't forget to include at least one cricut cut.

I am also entering this in the Cricut Creative Cutter Room Challenge - Graduation - Challenge runs May 17 - 30

Challenge Me Monday #103

Hello Everyone,

 This week at FCCB the challenge is

#103 Spring is in the Air

Make a project with at least 3 flowers

Here is my project:

I made this mini book to use for the pictures of the beautiful flowers that will be out soon. We are having the warmest spring at I ever remember. I have a couple more pictures and details on how I created this.

I created the base of the book in my gypsy.  I used Elegant Edges and George and Basic Shapes. I used a rectangle in the George cart to weld to the book image on the Elegant edges cart, which I cut at 4.5. Walk in my garden cart contains the first two flowers and the flower pot and vases. The third flower is from plantin schoolbook. I added buttons, twine, distressing and gems. I will be able to insert pictures into this book. I used a photo punch so the photos just slide in. I will probably embellish a little more once the photos are added.

Please join us at FCCB for this exciting challenge. The design team has some wonderful inspiration.

Thanks,

Tammy

Creative Cutter Room - Challenge

Hello Everyone,

Theme:  Shape Card!

Create a new card using a shape no squares no rectangles!

 

Here is my entry: 

 It has been such a great winter here in the northeast that I have had spring fever for some time, which inspired me for this card with flowers.  The teacup shaped card is on A Child's Year. (Easy, I didn't even have to create one with my gypsy.) I cut this  out at 5.5 and the ovals are from the George and Basic shapes cut at 3.25 and 2.75. I added some ribbon, prima flowers and some bling. Hello Spring is from the Hello Spring stamp set from MCT. The paper is from DCWV.
