My First Christmas Wreath

Today I decided to try a project idea I have been considering for a while... A christmas wreath. For the base I cut a circle strip using Cricut Cartridge George & the details comes from Cricut Cartridge Joys of the Season. I use stickles & MS glitter & tinsel as well. It was really fun putting all the pieces together. It took me around 3 hours.

Haunted House

My daughter is at preschool & when she came home today told me that the letter of the week was H. I inmeadiately thought about cutting her a house for her show & tell on Friday...so here it is a haunted house. I didn't have any halloween theme paper but thought about dark colors, so I choose a shade of gray & here is the haunted house.

Strawberry Picking LO

I use Cricut Cartridge Alphalicious for the wording. I like this font. Is a very simple LO. The paper is from DCWV.

Two cards, Two challenge... Too many circles!!!

I’ve always wanted to cut the cricut bug logo but for some reason never did, one of the reason among others been that I don’t own cricut cartridge storefront. But today, I was deciding what project to do for the Spectacular Circle Swarm Challenge and came up with the idea of a circle card. Then I read about the Circle blog Challenge - Think Pink and decided to create two cards for two challenge and too many circles involves…
Here’s the end results…I hope you like them and if you do please leave some comments…I love to get feedback and haven’t got much lately. Thanks in advance.

Cricut Circle Monthly Challenge

This is the first time I'm submitting a project for a challenge or anything like that. This is my entry for the Cricut Circle Monthly Challenge. The theme is celebrating create. I decided to used some pictures I have took of my dear daughter's first preschool projects. I thought those cute projects where a good reason to celebrate and to create a LO.

Sleeping Beauty, Pocahontas & Cricut Imagine

I try to print & cut the layers of slepping beauty & pocahontas using the cricut Imagine. I wanted to see how coloring layers works using the original cartridges. It's not the best example but I got the idea. Matching the colors took me a little bit of time, specially the flesh one. I don't know the RGB codes yet. I would keep practicing with other cartridges.

Baby Boy LO using Cricut Imagine

I made this two LO pages using the Cricut Imagine Nursery tails cartridge.

Vinyl Cuts using the Imagine

Today I used the vinyl sheet to see how well it works. I was really surprise as to how neat it cut although wasn't the same with the printing quality. The color looks to pale. I did some decor for my daugther's room. I use Nursery tails & storybook.

Imagine is here...!!!

I'm so excited...my new Cricut Imagine is home!!!! I wasn't expecting it today since I didn't request express shipping. It was suppose to be a weekend of creating, playing and experimenting but unfortunately we're leaving town today "now", so the playing and experimenting has to wait... ;-(. I did get the chance to open it and couldn't resist trying it so I did some testing and that's what I'm sharing.

Color cardstock, cut only option, the cut is from Imagine Best Friends

Printed on white paper, print & cut option, the cut is from Wild Card

Here comes Belle...

Tonight was Belle...I'm loving this because my little one is "forcing" me to do this & we are having some much fun together.

The cut is 7 3/4". I used an embossing folder & stickles glitter in some of the accesories. Once more the eyes were a challenge.

Jazmine Cut

I got another princess request from my 4 years old daughter... tonight was Jazmine...
It took me about an hour to do it. It was much easier than Ariel but... once again have trouble with those eyes.
I used stickles in some of the accesories.

The cut is 8". Hope you like it as much as my little one. TFL.

Ariel...Ufff...

After two years of owing Dream Come True cartridge, today I tried to cut one of the characters. I choose Ariel...

Cutting the pieces was really easy but those eyes...oh! boy... It took me a complete hour to put them together and still I'm not happy with the end result. The cut is 7 3/4".

I embossed part of the tail & used stickles for some sparkles. I hope you like it as much as my daughter.

Baby Gift Bag

I made this gift bag using a plain white paper bag. I used cricut cartridge New Arrival, MS glitter & the cricut markers.

Freezer Paper T-shirt

Here I go again... another attempt to make a t-shirt using the freezer paper technique. I used Cricut Cartridge Once Upon a Princess & tulip crystals 3d fashion paint. I like the way it turn out although I recognized I have to continue practicing.

Lazy Days of Summer

Hi, All!

I'm back after a long period of inactivity. Here is a page layout I made tonight. I was surprise to notice I have used six different cartridges in this simple layout. I used george, zooballoo, don juan, PDDU, Life is a beach & going places . Is not noticeable but I also used different cricut color markers & embossed some of the images, like the sun, the clouds & the sand.

It was fun to scrap again.

Mini Album

I have really been wanting to try making a mini album using the tissue roll tubes. I give it a try and this is the end result. I started Friday night, work for couple of hours and finish it today. It took me around 5 hours total. I have to say it was fun to do it & I like the way it turned out!

On the cover, I used my cricut & Don Juan cartridge for the word cousins. I welded the words and used teh nudge button on each letter. Pretty simple!!

Here I added a little pocket with a mini tag. I made both using TBBM.

Here I made a little fold out page.

Another view with the fold page open.
