Christmas Deer Card With The Imagine

Once I added pop dots to the layers on this deer from the Enjoy The Seasons Cartridge.  I knew he was going to be perfect in front of this tree.  I cut the deer and it's layers at 4-1/2" and the tree in the same size.  I added pearls to the antlers, sleigh bells, and the cuttle bug embossed mat.  I wish you could see it in person.  It is much prettier.  Thanks for all of your comments this week on my Imagine projects, and also for stopping by to visit.

Christmas Window Scene with The Imagine

My dogs, Oliver and Shoji decided that I needed to make a Christmas card for them.  They are always sitting at the window watching the grass grow.  So once again I had t to use the Imagine Enjoy The Season Cartridge since it has an adorable window scene.  The original image had a cat in it, so I just cut two dogs and replaced the cat.  I don't have a cat, and they said no cats on this card.  All kidding aside.  The image is on page 20 of the hand book.  It was cut at 4-1/2" with the layers.  The Christmas tree is on page 22 and it was cut at 4-1/2".  I cut the third tree image in the handbook, and added stickles for the sparkle.  Thanks to all who have been so kind to visit this week.  I will have another Imagine card again tomorrow.

Enjoy The Seasons Christmas Card

Hello everyone,
This card was made using the Enjoy The Seasons Imagine  cartridge.  I printed a 5-1/2" square using the snowflake pattern for one of my background layers.  This pattern is really beautiful, and now I don't have to keep searching for snowflake pattern paper.  I just never seem to find it.

The bird and branch are cut at 4"  including the layers.

The tag is found on page 25, and I changed the colors.  The large layer is cut in white, and the oval layer I used the same snowflake pattern to match my mat.
My card base is cut at 4-1/4" x 11", and scored at the 5-1/2" mark.
I cut red card stock at 4"x 5-1/4" and then cut my snowflake patterned paper 1/4" smaller.
Once I adhered all my mats, and card base, I layered all my cuts to the main branch image using pop dots to add dimension.  I attached the cut to a round scallop circle which is about 3-1/4".  This was in my stash, so please check the size before adhering to your project.
I added rhinestones to the berries for a little sparkle, and also use Star Dust Stickles on the leaves and on the wing of the bird.
I stamped on my greeting on my small oval. 

Fall Decorations using the Cricut

I wanted to dress up my mantel for the fall, and Thanksgiving holiday.  I used Tags, Bags, Boxes, and More  for the Tag.  Which was cut at 11.24"x5.9" on my Gypsy.  This allowed me to cut six tags on one mat.  The letters were cut at 1" using Gypsy Font.  I cut the oval shapes with my spell binder dies, and added dimensionals between the layers, and also added the pop dots to the back of each letter.  I then tied each letter to some thick twine with red ribbon.  I almost forgot to mention the turkey that separates the two words.  He was cut using the Imagine.  For the glass block, I cut the tree, and the scarecrow using the Celebrate With Flourish Cricut cartridge.  I didn't make a note of the size for these two cuts.  I did adjust the sizes with my Gypsy so that they would fit just right on the size of my block.  I cut the images for the block out of thick black cardstock, and added removable glue dots, and adhered them to the block.  This way when I get ready to decorate the block for Christmas, I can just remove the fall image and store it in a file.  I didn't want to have several blocks for every holiday, so I will just keep redecorating the same one.  Less stuff to store.

Another Shape Card using Sentimentals Cricut Cartridge

I used the card feature on page 35 for the base of this card.  I cut the card image at 4-3/4".  I cut the frame three times from page 29, and glued the layers together for a chip board look.  I used white cardstock for the first two layers, so that I could use the center oval for the center of my image.  I used the oval cut out to stamp an image in the center.  I used pop dots on the frame, and also for the center white oval.  I added some white ribbon and white pearls to complete the look.  On one of the pictures you will notice that I did not add the layer.  I didn't realize there was a layer available till later.  The other photo has the layer added.  I kinda like the look of both.  Thank you again for visiting my blog.  I appreciate you so very much.

Shape Card using Wild Card and Bloom Cricut Cartridges

Hello Scrappers,

I decided to make a shape card using two older cricut cartridges. The doily card is from the Wild Card Cartridge, and the Birdcage is from the Bloom Lite Cartridge. Below are the sizes of all the cuts.

• Doily-cut at 5” with liner for the inside
• Cut a second liner at 5-1/2” for the front circle. Run the large circle through your cuttlebug. I used the Swiss dots folder.
• Birdcage-cut at 3-1/4” I cut the image 4 time to make it look like chipboard.
• Bird-cut at 2-1/2”
• I tied two pieces of ribbon together to make the bow. I used a ¾” satin ribbon and layered lace beaded ribbon on top.

Feel free to use the colors I selected. Or feel free to use your favorite colors.
