25 X 25 X 25 - Let's the parade begins...Teddy Bear Parade & Children around the World

Yeap!!! I feel a sense of relief... I have finished cutting and assembling 50 cuts of bear from Cricut Cartridge Teddy Bear Parade and 25 cuts of a Persian girl from Cricut Cartridge Children around the World. I made these for a swap. It's been fun but I'm so glad I'm done. I used stickles, pearls in a bottle, embossing folders, glossy accents and ink to embellish them.

1st Christmas Card from Trim the Tree

I made this christmas card for the "Using My Stash" Holiday round challenge.

 

This is the first time I am using Cricut Cartridge Trim the Tree. 

 

I was worry about the intricate details.  I cut the tree at 5'.

 

I used a cuttlebug embossing folder on the base of the card.

 

Simple and quick card.

 

My Teddy Bear's Parade

I have been having some fun cutting and assembling a couple of bears from Cricut Cartridge Teddy Bear Parade.  

 

 

I cut the bear at 5".

 

 

 My favorite has to be the mermaid... ;)

 

 

Our very 1st Jack o' lantern

I was seriously worry about doing this but I'm happy with the end result.

 

Not bad for our first attempt.

 

 

Happy Birthday Wishes...

I made this card using Beautiful Boxed Cuttlebug die & embossing folder.  The background texture is made using Regal Flourishes Tim Holtz embossing folder. I stamped the sentiments using Inkadinkado Petal Expressions stamp set. I added a touch of beads in a bottle.
