Snowman Shaped Card!

Here is a card I created for the Cricut Cardz Challenge Blog whose challenge this week was to create something using a snowman from any Cricut cartridge. I chose to use Doodlecharms because I love this snowman cut! The card is 5.5 inches high. I first cut the snowman (using the blackout feature) twice on black cardstock to create the card base. Then I cut just the snowman body using Glimmer White paper. Unfortunately, you can't see it in the picture but the paper glimmers in the light. I used an old shoelace cut in half as his scarf and frayed the tips. The inside has a stamped "Happy Holidays" sentiment in Moonlight white ink. Just another reminder to check out my BLOG CANDY post and I have several posts regarding blog hops and candy alerts! I'd love to have you as a follower!

Cupcake Shaped Birthday Card!

Happy Thursday everyone! Hope all are well and keeping warm. We're expecting another snow storm overnight tonight. Fun is! In the meantime, I have a few creations for you. The first is a cupcake shaped birthday card I made using my Cricut and the Doodlecharms cartridge. I love making shaped cards!! I think they come out so cute! This one was cut at 5 inches. I first cut the shadow of the cupcake twice to make the card base then used the manual to cut the other layers. I used this fab pre-glittered (sugary glitter!!) cardstock for the frosting and candle. Needless to say, I had glitter EVERYWHERE! lol I stamped "Happy Birthday" on the "wrapper" after everything was assembled for a finishing touch. Doesn't it look so yummy??! The challenge this week over at the Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Blog was "Sweet Shop"; in other words, create some sort of sweet and as always a cricut cut must be present on the project. I think this cupcake shaped birthday card fits the bill perfectly! Don't forget I have BLOG CANDY going HERE!

JOY Gift Tags!

Here is another set of gift tags. I used the same green tone on tone paper and zigzag stitched around the edge. The stocking is from the Doodlecharms cart while the Joy sentiment is from the Create A Critter cart. I used Diamond Dust stickles on the snowflake in the middle of "Joy", Green stickles on the 'J' and 'Y' and gold stickles on the stocking card. I added some cute K&Co poinsettas to the "Joy" card.

Santa and Rudolph Gift Tags!

Here is another set of 3inch by 3inch Gift Tags I made using the Cricut and the Doodlecharm cartridge (Santa) and the Create A Critter cartridge (Rudolph). Both Santa and Rudolph were cut at 2 inches. I zigzag stitched around the edges of the plaid tone on tone green paper and then cut the images. I added a few drops of Gold Stickles to each card to finish them off.

Snowmen Gift Tag Set!

Greetings all! I've been working on Christmas cards and tags lately. This week, over at the Cricut Cardz Challenge, the challenge was to create a set (2 or more) of 3inch by 3 inch gift tags or cards. Each card must have some sort of Cricut cut on them. Here is my first set. This snowman cut from the Doodlecharms cartridge is one of my favorites from this cart! I chose this great red snowflake paper and stitched around the edges. I used gold ribbon and stickled around the snowmen with Diamond Dust. I used pop dots to pop my snowmen up off the tags. Assembled and done!

"S" is for Snowman Card!

Here's another Quick and Easy Christmas Card I whipped up tonight. I used the Cricut and Stretch Your Imagination cart to create the circle frame and Doodlecharms to make the snowman. I cut the frame at 5inches and adhered it to a 5x5 white card. I cut the snowman at 2inches twice, once using the blackout feature and once using the regular cut. I colored his nose orange (instead of cutting the snowman again in orange...trying to save paper! lol) and traced around his outer edge with Diamond Dust Stickles. I added the Merry Christmas tag and DONE! Super easy!

Dog Shaped Card!

Phoenix loves his Grammy sooo much so of course he begged me to make card for her for Mother's Day! I used the Cricut DoodleCharms cart. This was a fun and surprisingly easy card to make. I paper pieced to add dimension and faux stitched around the front of the card. Isn't he just too cute?? :)
