Wedding Card

I hope everyone had a relaxing and safe long holiday weekend. This project is for the new Cricut FANatic blog that a fellow cricut cirlce member started up since we have lost our beloved cricut circle blog a month ago. This is my very first time to be a designer for a blog other then my own. I think I'm going to have so much fun coming up with something new every month and getting to see what everyone else comes up with.

Today I have made a card to show ya'll. A good friend of ours just got married over the weekend and this is the card I made for them. For the card base I used my Art Philosophy cartridge and used the card on page 37 and cut it out withh the layers at 5.5". I used Echo Park paper from a 6x6 pad for the top layer and then used a few pieces of a darker red under the top layer for the pop of color to go with the dress. For the bottom layer I used a thin sheet of off white. I also added a couple of dimonds for a little bling.
For the dress I used Tie the Knot and the dress is from page 46 and cut it at 3.75". I used a piece of kinda darker red for the bottom layer of the dress and I also wanted to give this card a pop of color and have always thought that red looks very pretty and eleagnt with black and white. For the top layer of the dress I took a card and cut it in half so it would stand out from the other shade of white that I used for the card base using the devine swirls folder. I added some Martha Stewart pearls along the sash and bottom and cuttlebuged the top layer to give it some texture.
The MR. & MRS. I found also on Tie the Knot on page 62. I cut all layers at 1" and added some Martha Stewert crystal glitter to give it that extra sparkle.
Hope you have a wonderful day and can't wait to be back here this time next month with something new to show ya'll!

book made with out of character

I make Kelsey a new note book for her to draw/write in since she informed me that she was out of paper in her old one lol.
I used Out Of Charater cartridge and cute HAPPY out at 3". I used my cinch to put it all together and the background paper that I used is from Paper Studio Persnickety pack that I got at Hobby Lobby. I also tied some pink and white ribbon up on the top and added some stickles in a few places and some rhinestones on the "A's" and on the flowers.
Thanks for looking and have a great day :)

1st birthday card using Out Of Character

A friend of mine's baby girl is fixing to turn 1 so I made this card for her...nice and bright with lots of girly colors.
I cut birthday 1 & girl out at 2.5" and the inside saying I typed out on the computer and printed it on the same purple paper that I used for the front of the card.
I used Echo Park polka dotted paper and then some solid pink/purple/green that I had. I also added some pink rhinestones to give it alittle bling. Then tied some bright green ribbon on one side.
Thanks for looking and have a great day :)

Thank You Card using Out Of Character

This is my entery for the Circle Magazine challenge...you had to use at least 1 full Out of Character Image Cut including layers in your project.
I used the Thank You off of page 60 and cut it at 4.5". I took some Martha Stewart peridot (green) glitter and put it on part of the T and the S. I also put clear rhinestones one each of the corners and then took smaller clear rhinestones on the K. I also pop dotted it up off the card. I used some zebra print paper that I found at Michaels and layered it with black on a pink card.
Thank you for stoping by and looking :)

Weekly Challenge #62: Card Sketch Challenge

The weekly challenge on the cricut circle blog was to make a card using a card sketch using at least 2 cricut cuts. I used Cindy Loo for the deer and the tree and Art Philosophy for the banner. I used brown craft and purple cardstock and then used some Echo Park Springtime paper. I cut the deer out at 3" and the tree at 4" and the banner is cut out at 4.5"(I think lol). I used my corner rounder for the top part of the card and added white ribbon at the bottom part of the card.
Thanks for looking and have a great day! :)
