Letter of the Day - Letter S

 

Today is Monday, and on Mondays

at My Cricut Craft Room

we do The Letter of the Day,

and today's letter is "S".

We can use a cartridge

that starts with the letter

or an image that starts with the letter.

 

I chose to use a "S"leigh, from

Paper Doll Dress Up.

 

 

You can find this particular

sleigh on page 74 of the handbook.

I cut it twice at 5" wide.

I cut it once in silver

and again in red.

 

I cut the rails off of the red layer.

I then embossed it using a Sizzix folder.

I spritzed it with some Diamond Glimmer Mist.

Then I glued it on top of the silver layer.

I added some Platinum Stickles.

The presents were cut with

my Creative Memories square punch.

 

All paper is DCWV.

Still not sure I really like this card,

I think I used too many patterns,

it looks a little too busy.

Oh well, someone on my christmas

card list will still be getting it...LOL.

 

Make sure you stop over at

My Cricut Craft Room

Nov. 100 Cartridge Blog Hop

 

Hello and Welcome to the November

100 Cartridge Blog Hop with

My Cricut Craft Room

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

My Cricut Craft Room

 

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

Mary

 

Here is the entire line up

in case you get lost!!

Theme Day Thursday - use Paper Lace 1, 2 or Ornamental Iron 1, 2.

Hello , today is

over at My Cricut Craft Room.

Today we were asked to use with Paper Lace,

Paper Lace 2, Ornamental Iron, or Ornamental Iron 2.

I used Paper Lace 2 to

make another Christmas Card!!

When I was scrolling through the handbook

looking for an image to use, I thought the

image on page 33 looked like an ornament.

I cannot recall what size I cut these out at

but I stretched the image on the left side

to get an enlongated image.

I just love the colors I used for this card.

For years I used silver and blue for my

christmas tree, but last year

I bought all new ornaments in bright

colors.  Pink, Purple, Turquoise and Lime Green!!

That is what inspired me for this card.

I used some glitter paper for the top layer of the

ornament and hung them from tinsel string.

The sentiment is from My Creative Time's

Warm Holiday Fun Stamp Set.

I embossed with with Zing Embossing powder,

I also embossed the lavendar paper

and the bottom layer of the ornament

with a Cuttlebug folder, not sure of the name!!

Thanks for visiting, and please make

sure you stop by

My Cricut Craft Room
