Halloween Treats

I saw these pop holders in several of the blogs I follow and even a Die for the holder on one. So I thought, Heck, let me try to make something in CCR and, well I think I like mine :) Especially cuz it cost me $0 !  talk about last minute me… while waiting for Hurricane Sandy to take her toll and possibly make me bring 1/2 my craft room area upstairs I decided I better get movin..

anyone who would like the ccr file, just drop me an email

I made the holder with shapes from George and welded them together :)

 

Happy Birthday to Matt

I put this little card together for Ashton’s BF. He LUVS FOOTBALL!!

I found these digital papers at this Etsy Shop. She has all different football teams colors! The little Football Nut is from Bugaboo Digital Stamps. I wanted to follow a sketch I had seen on this Blog that I follow. She has beautiful work!

The digi stamp is colored with copic markers and a white gel pen on the football. I used my new Spellbinders M Bossibiities :) on the 2 thinner pieces of paper. The inside ticket stamp sentiment is from the Ticket Talk set from Cardz TV Stamps.com

Happy Birthday Giraffe

Alison turns 30! Oh my gosh, I’m getting older! lol  She adores giraffes, especially since we went to Disney this past year and stayed at the Animal Kingdom Lodge. The giraffes would water during the day and bedded down right outside our room! She named them all Geoffrey (like Toys R Us). I found it fitting to do this little card for her. I used the Zooballoo Cartridge. The card is cut at 8.5 x 4.25. I then used some chocolate flocking for his spots and his ears. It’s hard to see, but I chalked the clouds with blue. Enjoy :)

Halloween Frame

Hi again! I made a mini album for a co worker who’s daughter just had a baby earlier this summer and she has decided to use the remaining pages I didn’t decorate for the holidays thru the end of the year. I came up with this little frame using the Happy Hauntings 3D freebies and a cute little pumpkin from the Artiste cartridge. The papers were from a DCWV fall paper stack and welded in CCR. I made this to fit the 5 1/2 sized pages. The frame is cut at 4.45 height and is 4.25 with the welded pumpkin. The opening will fit a  2 1/2 oval picture. I’d be happy to share the file, just PM me :) if you’d like. Thanks for looking

Bones

I cut these two fellas from the Artiste Cartridge. I was using the cart for the other little cuts on my cards(previous post) and they caught my eye! These are just very simple put on the mat and cut away. I wanted to have my daughter show her BF’s sister what crazy possibilites we (CRICUT/Imagine Fanatics) have to help her decorate her new classroom. She is a special needs teacher and just got an official teaching position in a local elementary school. They basically gave her an empty room, with no blackboards,desks etc, so its building a class from ground zero! We also found out she cut 150 leaves by hand!  totally not necessary!!!

anyhow, the Boo is at 1.6” for height in CCR and the skeletons,one flipped are at 11.15” height and the head is 1.569” height. 2 fit on the page.

I am finding so many other cool things on this Artiste Cartridge,  it’s becoming a fav :)
