For my projects I decided to use Go Canada!, Birthday Bash, Lacy Labels, and Love You A Latte Cricut Cartridges.

I decided to keep things simple this month as I have had a lot going on.  I made two projects and both are cards.  I used my gypsy to create both projects.

For my first card I used Go Canada! and Birthday Bash.

P1010873

I cut the leaft from the Go Canada! Cartridge at 6.88″.  This image also includes the wording which you see on my card.  To make it easier for me I cut the leaf only and used the hide feature to hide the remainder.  Then I created the same image and hid the leaf.  That way it was easier for me to cut them out of two different colours.  The words “Canada Eh!?” are cut at 5.35″.  The base of the card comes from Birthday Bash Cricut Cartridge and is cut at 3.94″.

P1010875

 As you can see above I put the leaf and the words on dimensionals!

 

For my next card I used Lacy Labels and Love You a Latte cartridges.

P1010855

The tea cup and layers are from Love You A Latte and are cut at 2.06″.  The base of the card is from Lacy Labels and were sized at 4.29″ and the welded together to make a card base.  The next layer is the same shape but cut at 3.82″.

Today I decided to use Nifty Fifties, Go Canada and Life's a Party Cricut Cartridges.

For my first projects I decided to make two different shape cards.  

The first one is made using Life's a Party for the base.  This can be found on page 27 and is cut out with my gypsy at 4.65".  The layers are also cut out at 4.65".  

P1010804

The "Go Team" comes from the Go Canada Cricut Cartridge and is on page 23.  I cut this out at 2.06" and also used the shadow layer to make it pop.

P1010805

 Here's my card….

P1010803

 

For my second project I used the Life's a Party and Nifty Fifties Cricut Cartridges.  The base of my card come from Life's a Party on page 23 and is cut at 4.18".  I used the coordinating layer but hid the image on the layer.  I actually cut two of the layers out.  The first layer is cut at 4.18" and the second layer is cut at 3.94".  The image comes from Nifty Fifties and is cut at 3.94" along with all of the layers.  Here's my card…

This project is now on the back of my husband's truck!  The hockey player is cut from the Sports Mania cartridge at 7" on my gypsy.  The lettering and number is from Birthday Bash and is cut at 1.59".  I am loving the way this turned out.  Especially for my first time using vinyl.  

My second project uses the Go Canada Cricut Cartridge and Elegant Edges Cartridge.  I made a card that is 5" x 5".

My Cricut Craft Room – The Letter E

Published on by creativecraftcorner13 Comments

The letter of the day is E

 

As soon as I saw the theme I knew I had to participate!  For those of you that know me or follow my blog you know I love elephants.  Lucky for me, my adorable neice loves elephants too.  She just had her 4th birthday on the weekend so I just had to make her an elephant card.

P1010779

And here's the inside….

P1010780

The elephant is from the Sugar and Spice Cricut Lite Cartridge and is cut out at 2.53" on my gypsy.

My daughter was looking at the layout and thought I should try something different.  She came up with the idea to punch a circle out of the layer piece so that the sentiment would show through.  The sentiment on the front of the card and the inside are from My Creative Time's Wow, So Many Candles stamp set.

Until next next time…have fun creating!!

My Cricut Craft Room – Get Well Card

Published on by creativecraftcorner11 Comments

Today over at My Cricut Craft Room we could make a get well card or use embossing powders on our card.  I chose to make a Get Well Card.

I decided to make an A2 size card portrait style.  I used the Indie Art cartridge and cut the bandaid at 2.76" on my gypsy.  The center I put on a dimensional.  The little heart is also on a dimensional.  I used a small heart punch but you could easily find a heart on a cricut cartridge and cut it out.  The sentiment comes from My Creative Time's Pain Pain Go Away stamp set.  The clear buttons and punches to match are from Stampin' Up.  I was asking my daughter about the buttons and different choices when I came across my stash of the clear button from Stampin' Up.  I punched out the three shapes and laid the buttons over the shapes and asked my daughter her opinion.  Without a blink of an eye she said…."why don't you use the "x's" but take the one out of the middle and make it an "o" for hugs and kisses since you have a bandaid".  How cute was that!!!!  So….onto the project…..

P1010772

P1010773

So what do you think???  Cute idea eh?

My Cricut Craft Room – Art Philosophy

Published on by creativecraftcorner16 Comments

Today on My Cricut Craft Room the Design Team had a choice between creating a project with the Art Philosophy Cricut Cartridge and creating a project with a Theme- Valentines Die cuts.  I decided to try my hand at the Art Philosophy Cartridge since I got it for Christmas and have not had a chance to play with it yet.

For my project I decided to make door hangers.  The cut is on page 25 under the Font Layer.  I used a 12 x 12 piece of Chocolate Chip cardstock and used the fit to page feature on my Cricut Expression.

P1010763

P1010764

Here are some close ups….

Welcome to Erica's Craft Room
100 Cricut Cartridge Blog Hop
  
  
You should have started at http://mycricutcraftroom.blogspot.com/ if not please start at the beginning.
 

For my project I used the Sophisticated, Campin' Critters and Kate's ABCs Cricut Cartridges.

I like to try to challenge myself and use all three cartridges in one project so others are able to get an idea of different ways to use multiple cartridges together.  I also like to use my gypsy to lay everything out to see if my ideas will work or not.

The base of the card is from the Campin' Critters Cartridge and it's the sign feature on page 51.  I cut this out at 3.71".  The next layer is the sign layer which is also cut at 3.71".

The wording "Friends" comes from the Sophisticated Cartridge.  I used the base/shadow feature to cut out "friends" at 1.24".  I also cut out the phrase feature at 1.24".

P1010761

Next comes the cute little kittens….they are from Kate's ABCs Cartridge.  I cut out the kittens and all the layers at 2.53".

P1010762

 

Here is the finished project!!!

 

P1010754

Princess Bella’s Birthday Blog Hop

Bellas%20blog%20hop
Welcome to Princess Bella's Birthday Blog Hop with My Cricut Craft Room!!

You should have come from Tracy's blog"
 
P1010701
 
 
To make this cute but simple card I cut the base out of Pretty in Pink cardstock at 4-1/4 x 5-1/2.  The first layer is a pattern paper from a Breast Cancer paper pack I have and it is cut at 4 x 5-1/4.  I also used the Life's A Party Cricut Cartridge to cut out the princess crown on my gypsy at 2.61.  I then used the Birthday Bash Cricut Cartridge and cut out the letters for Bella at 0.88 on my gypsy.  Because I used my gypsy it was easy to make sure the letters fit inside the princess crown!  I then finished it off with some pink divine twine and pink rhinestones!
 
"Make sure that you comment on EVERY blog to win blog candy…. the winners will be picked from the comments on our blogs not Erica's blog."
