Card Creating Tuesday - Christmas

Hello all my crafty friends and welcome back

to Card Creating Tuesday with

My Cricut Craft Room

Today is the 25th, on on the 25th of every month

our Theme is always CHRISTMAS!!

Plus, from now until 10/15 we are using pink

in all our projects in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness.

For Today's project I used A Quilted Christmas.

I just love the beautiful, intricate

images on this cartridge.

I chose to use the Ghost of

Christmas Past from page 41.

She is cut at 4".  Isn't she pretty!!

Here is a close up

I started with a kraft card base.

For the pink layer, I used a piece

of Coordinations Glimmer cardstock that

I embossed and then inked with Distress Ink

in Worn Lipstick.  I also sprayed it

with some Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Mist.

I added some Icicle Stickles.
I stamped her face with
Peachy Keen's "Laffy Taffy"
Face Assortment.

Here is a close up of the sentiment.

It is from My Creative Time's

"Warm Holiday Fun" stamp set.

I heat embossed it with Zing

Pink Glitter Embossing Powder.

I inked the edges of the card base and add

Pink and White Tulle.

Thanks for Stopping by and please

head over to My Cricut Craft Room

to see more Christmas cards!!

Theme Day Thursday - Shoes

Happy Thursday to all my Craft Friends!!

For the next month here are My Cricut Craft Room

we are turning PINK to show our support for

Breast Cancer.  To honor those who are currently

fighting the disease, survivors and to remember

those who have lost the battle.  From now until

October 15th, Erica has asked us to use  

PINK on every project!!  She said that we could

hide it on the back or cover it up, but I am going to

display it proudly, since my mom is a breast

cancer survivor.  She is one of the lucky ones, she

has been cancer free  for more than 7 years. 

Early detection is the key, so please make sure you

get your yearly mammograms!!

 

So the theme for today was one

of my favorite things  

SHOES!!!

 

I decided to use the oh so cute witches

 shoe from Happy Hauntings cut at 3.5".        

I started with a black card base.

The pattern papers is from DCWV all cardstock is

Coordinatons.  I used 2 different Cuttlebug

embossing folders. Sorry but, the one on the 2nd

dark purple layer, I do not know the name of,

but the one on the top light lavendar layer is

Divine Swirls.  I sanded the dark purple layer and

rough up the edges with an edge distresser,  I also

inked both layers lightly with Tim Holtz Distress Ink

in Black Soot.  I added some rhinestone swirls

from Recollections.  I also added some black pearls

from the dollar bin at Joann's as the buttons on the

shoe.  I finished it off with some black and white

twine and some pink glitter tulle. 

The tag and sentiment are from

My Creative Time.

 

Please go check out the rest of the ladies

on the design team that share my passion for shoes

at My Cricut Craft Room and

don't forget to get your mammogram!!!
