Nov. 100 Cartridge Blog Hop

 
Hello and Welcome to the November
100 Cartridge Blog Hop with
Can you believe that it is already November!!
Christmas will be here before you know it.
Have you started on your Christmas cards yet??
 
This month all the DT projects will be
Winter/Holiday related to give
you some inspiration for your
holiday projects.
 
You should have started at
 
This month I have used the following 4 cartridges.
Winter Woodland, Snow Friends, Jolly Holidays,
and Martha Stewart Seasonal Cake.
 
For my first project I used Winter Woodland
 
I made this card using the card feature
on page 39.  It was fast and simple.
The papers are DCWV and the sentiment
is from K Andrew's Winter Wishes.
I added some stickles to give it some sparkle!
 
My next project is a Christmas Tag
made using Jolly Holidays
and Martha Stewart Seasonal Cake.
 

 
The tag itself is a  the Tag die
from My Creative Time, which I hve embossed
and inked.  The Little Birdie is from
Jolly Holidays cut at 2".
The sentiment is from page 63
of Martha Stewart Seasonal Cake.
This cart has so many holiday related
images and sentiments!!

 
The papers are from Imaginisce.
 
My final project is a shaped card.
It is my favorite and was made
with Snow Friends.

 
I cut the cute little snowgirl at 5".
I welded 2 of the base layer using my gypsy
to form my shaped card.  I then cut a
third base layer to place on top.
I cut two of all the pieces
so that she would have a front
and a back.  The second set
of cuts I flipped using my gypsy
so they would line up properly.
Her face was stamped with
Peachy Keen's Princess Faces.
I think she is just too adorable!!
 
Here is a side view.

 
Thanks for visiting, and I hope
I have inspired you to
start your holiday projects!!
 
Next in the hop is my
sweet DT sister
 
Here is the entire line up
in case you get lost!!

25 Days of December - Day 21 KIDS

Erica's Design Team
Welcome to Erica's Craft Room 25 Days of Christmas,
with 25 Cricut projects a day.  Don't forget to stop by
Erica's blog to see 24 more projects today....
and every day in December.

Today's theme was KIDS!!
Here is my project....

I am sooo late posting this project!!!  I am so sorry my crafty friends!!  I work in the world of payroll, so this time of year is super, super busy for us.  Anyway, my project today is a gift bag.  I made this gift bag for my Secret Santa!!  I used Jolly Holidays.  I believe the skater is cut at 5".  Once again, I failed to save this file on my gypsy :(.  The sentiment is also cut from Jolly Holidays.  The pattern paper is from Close to My Hearts "Winter Wonderland" paper pack.  The rest of the glitter and glimmer cardstock is from my stash, mostly Coordination's.  I actually trimmed the hat down with my scissors a bit, it seemed way too big!! 
Here is a close up
I used Peachy Keens Princess Face Assortment for her cute little face.  I also used the divine swirls cuttlebug folder for emboss the ice rink.  I tied some glitter tulle to the handle.

 To finish it off I added a tag that I cut from Art Philosophy.  I cut it twice, once in the pattern paper and then again with the glitter paper.  on the glitter paper tag, I hid the snowflake using my gypsy.  The font for the name is also from Art Philosophy, I cut the letters out of the top layer of the tag, so that the glitter paper would show through the negative space.
 There are only 4 days left of the 25 Days of Christmas!!
See you all tomorrow!!

Happy Crafting !!

25 Days of December - Day 18 - ELF

Erica's Design Team
Welcome to Erica's Craft Room 25 Days of Christmas,
with 25 Cricut projects  day.  Don't forget to stop by
Erica's blog to see 24 more projects today....
and every day in December.

Today's theme was to use an ELF!
Here is my project....

My project was to use Peachy Keen Stamps:
Isn't he the cutest little guy!!  I have been wanting Jolly Holidays since it came out last year, but kept putting off buying it.  Now that the Christmas is here, I have been trying to buy this everywhere, and it either wasn't available or I kept losing the bids on ebay!!  Well guess what, I ended it up winning the cartridge from the wonderful Pam at http://craftycards4u2.blogspot.com/!!  I knew when I signed up for this day in the 25 Days of December that my cartridge was on its way, and I wanted to use this cute little elf!!
I cut the elf and all his layers at 3.75".  I added the super cute Peachy Keen face from the Wide Eyed Kids Assortment.  I added some liquid Applique to his hat, and some bling for the buttonson his pants.  I also added stickles to the string of lights.  The piece of cardstock he is sitting on is from Stampin Up, and I punched it with Martha Stewarts Skyland Snowflake Punch Around the Page.  The pattern paper is from the DCWV Christmas Glitter Stack.  The sentiment is from Crafty Sprouts 'Have a Cool Yule" set.
I added some bakers twine from My Craft Spot and some bling to the center of the snowflakes.
Thanks again for visiting and come back again tomorrow :)
Happy Crafting!
