Snow Friends Box!

I love to make these little boxes from Cricut's Tags, Bags, Boxes and More cartridge. This one is the purse cut and I think it came out just so cute! I cut it at 5.5 inches and used a Dustin Pike image called Snow Friends. I stickled using Frosted Lace, Red and Gold stickles and added the K&Co poinsettas. The tag was cut from the same paper as the image's mat and was cut using the TBBM cartridge at 1.5inches. I added some red ribbon for a "handle", tied on my tag and this project was finished! I love it when it comes together the way you pictured! This little purse/box is ready for a small gift such as earrings or even some candies!

HO,HO,HO Gift Card Holder!

Good evening everyone! I hope all is well in your little part of the world. Here in Northern CT, USA the weather has turned to snow from the drizzle rain that stuck around all day yesterday and today. This week's challenge over at Polka Doodles is to make something that can hold a gift. My first project is a gift card holder. I've seen so many people make them out of toilet paper rolls and wanted to try my hand at that! I cheated though, because I used the end of a wrapping paper roll! I wrapped it with one of my favorite papers and zig zag stitched around three sides leaving an opening along one short side. I cut a tag using my Tags, Bags, Boxes and More cricut cartridge at 4inches out of coordinating paper and tied gold ribbon on the end. A few stickles here and there and this project was done! It amazed me how easy it was to do!

Penguin Tag!

I created this cute little penguin tag for a winter birthday I have coming up. I used my Cricut and the Tags, Bags, Boxes cartridge for the tag; and the Create A Critter cartridge for the penguin. Isn't he just so cute??!!

'Twas the Night Before Christmas...Card!

Good evening everyone!! I recently won some free vintage Christmas digis from Ms. Peggy at PeggyLovesVintage and needed to put them to good use! Over at PolkaDoodles this week the challenge is "Twas the Night before Christmas". This cute image reminded me of the point in the poem when the narrator sees Santa. I used some Christmas scraps I had and inked them up with Vintage Photo distressing ink. I sewed around the red holly paper and layered my papers. I used my Cricut and the Tags, Bags and Boxes cartridge to cut out a 2inch scalloped tag which I inked as well. I was fresh out of thin brown twine so I used thin white twine and inked it to make it look brown! The sentiment is handwritten. I topped off the card with a flower and called it done business! Thanks again to Peggy for the great set of Santa cutouts!!
