Happy (heart) Day (Cut file included)

I saw a card the other day and liked the design of it, so I created this one using the Cricut and Design Studio. The cartridges that I used are Hannah Montanna, George and Basic Shapes and Plantin Schoolbook. The card base is A2 size and the card is made with Black cardstock from Michaels. The cardstock brand is Recollectons and it is their Gem Stone collection. One side has a very nice shimmer to it and it cuts great in the cricut. The pattern paper is from K and Company 12x12 designer paper stack called "Lovely" also from Michaels. This design cuts out as one piece and then I cut an extra heart in pink and covered it with glitter and then used a pop-dot to give it dimension. The design covers the front of an A2 size card 5 1/2 x 4 1/4. I ran the whole design through the Xyron machine and then attached to the front of the card base. Enjoy! Here is the cut file:

Christmas Stockings card

For this card I used Design studio, Christmas Cheer and George and Basic Shapes cartridge. I designed the card using the george cartridge for the card shape and welded 3 stockings to the rectangle. I then used the design studio to cut out all the pieces using the hide feature. I hid the tacks when cutting out the white stocking pieces and then hid the white pieces and cut just the tacks in green shiny paper. I also cut the front using pattern paper to dress up the top part of the card. I inked the edges with brown ink and put diamond stickles on the white parts of the stockings. The inside I put a piece of pattern paper since it shows and then used a stamp for the sentiment. Enjoy!

Fall Wreath
Here is a wreath that was created using the Cricut and A Childs Year cartridge. The leaves were cut at 2 1/2 inches. I used 8 1/2 inch paper and set the auto fill button. It calculated 15 leaves at 2 1/2 inches. I used Red cardstock, Yellow cardstock, Green cardstock, Orange cardstock, and Brown cardstock. I cut a silhouette circle for the base of the wreath using George and Basic Shapes cartridge. Each leaf was inked on the edges and then slighty curled to give a realistic shape. The scarecrow came from http://www.svgcuts.com/ from the Harvest Hill Farm collection. He was cut at 6 inches using the sure cuts alot program. There are pieces that are cut for the face but I used a Peachy Keen face stamp for his face. I also cut some acorns from that collection and pop dotted them on the wreath. Stickles were used on some of the leaves to give an extra pop. (ignore the date on picture)Enjoy!

Paper Pups BOO!

For this card I used design studio, George and Basic Shapes and Paper Pups Cartridge. I made the card using george and welding two squares together. A solid and an outline square. In the square I welded the witch pup to the sides of the square. Then I welded the word Boo! to the square in shadow cut. I then used the "hide" button to hide the insides of the word so it came out solid. Then I made the layers on another mat and cut everything out in the different colors. I cut the card out in black. I cut the word out in orange. I cut the pup out in polka dot paper and cut the hat off to show the black. I cut the outline in brown.I tied ribbon around the side of the card. I used orange stickles on the Boo. Cinamon Stickles on the broom. Used a google eye on the pup. Inside the card I stamped some spiders that look like they are hanging from the broom and top of card. Enjoy!

Haunted House Card with cut file

I used the Wild Card Cartridge. The House Card. I also used design studio to cut everything out. I also used George and Basic Shapes and Paper Doll Dress Up. I cut the house out in orange and then I used George to cut planks for the outside of the house. For around the window I used smaller planks to look like they were nailed to the house. The skeleton is glued inside the card so you see him when the card is opened. I don't know the measurement but I will put the cut file up later. I used Peachy Keen stamps on the pumpkin and the ghost looking out the window. It is a large card. I inked all the planks to give a wood look. This has many possibilities. Let me know what you think. Enjoy! Here is the cut file: http://www.mediafire.com/file/niymdxnkdtj/halloween card.cutThursday, July 30, 2009
Snowman Card

I saw these cards made with Stampin Up punches and since I don't have those punches, but I have a cricut and design studio, I made all the cut using the George and Basic Shapes cartridge. I used the design studio to lay out all the pieces and then I could put all the paper on the mat and cut all at once. I used a white gel pen for the white accents on the eyes and stitch marks on the hat. I used the a small flower punch for the flowers on the hat. I used pop-dots to pop the eyes up. I really like the way it came out. Enjoy!

Christmas Wreath

Here is a wreath that I created using my branch cut file. I cut several branches out. I also cut a circle to lay the branches on and keep a circle shape. I glued the branches around the the circle putting them in different directions. I added Martha Stewart Glitter to the wreath to give it a snowy look. I added red sequins to the top. I cut a bow from the Paper Doll Dress Up cartridge and glued it to the bottom of the wreath. The Merry Christmas is a rubber stamp. I stamped it with black ink and used decorative edge sissors around the edge. Enjoy!

Flower Pot Card


I used design studio for this card. The cartridges that I used were George and Basic Shapes, Plantin Schoolbook and Walk in My Garden. Everything was cut from design studio and I even made a stand to attach on the back of the flowerpot so the card will stand-up. As you can see in the pictures the flowers get attached to the card that gets pulled out. I used ink on the edges and a white gel pen for the stitch marks and I wrote the Happy Birthday on the front. Enjoy!
