September 100 Cartridge Blog Hop

 

Welcome to Erica's Craft Room

100 Cricut Cartridge Blog Hop Day ONE

You should have started at http://mycricutcraftroom.blogspot.com/

if not please start at the beginning

Collectively the design team uses over 100 different Cricut Cartridges in their projects during the two days of this hop.

 

 

For this months Hop I chose to use the following cartridges,

Fontopia, Elmo and Friends Holiday, and Rock Princess.

I made all birthday cards this month!!

 

This first one I used Fontopia, and Artiste.

It is kind of simple, but it was for my

son, so did not want it fancy!!

 

The paper is from CTMH older set

called Route 66.

I used the chipboard and stamps

from the Artiste bundle for the center piece.

 

For this next card, I used Elmo and Friends Holidays.

Now I know I made an Abby Cadabby card a few

months ago, but when my friend at work saw

a picture of it, she wanted me to make her an

Abby Cadabby card too.  She has a

grandaughter named Abby.

 

These characters, have so many tiny pieces they

are sometimes a challenge to put together,

but once they are done, totally worth it!!

I added some of my favorite

Stardust Stickles.  The tag

is Spellbinders "Twisted Metal Tags"

 

 

 

For my last 2 projects I used Rock Princess.

My granddaughter had a "Rock Star" Birthday

Party this month, I made the invitations for the party.

 

I had to make 30 of these, so kept them pretty simple.

I had quite the time trying to cut glitter cardstock.

I ruined several sheets trying to cut the top layer.

I finally ended up reversing the colors and was

happy with the way they turn out.

 

Here is the inside

 

 

Here is the card that I made for her.

Letter of the Day - Letter F

Hello My crafty friends!!

Did you all get to see all the amazing projects on this

weekends 100 Cartridge Blog Hop??

There were lots of inspiring ideas.

Well today is the first time I signed up

for Letter of the day!!

For the letter of the day, we can use

a cartridge or a cut that begins with that letter.

I chose to use the brand new Fontopia cartridge.

This cartirdge is so much more than a font cartridge.

It has some really great card cuts and graphics.

I made a very simple card today.

I was having trouble cutting the intricate

crest layers, so I did not use the top layer.

(I believe my problem was my mat was

not sticky enough so the paper kept coming up)

I chose the card from page 43

Here is the page from the handbook

I know some of you may say it is too early

for Christmas cards.  But the sooner

I start, the sooner I will be done!!

Hopefully I will not be still making

cards 2 weeks before christmas!!

The paper is from

DCWV, and the Snowman

is a Jolee's embellishment.

This was my original card, but

 I thought it needed more!!

I added some silver stickles

and some gems.

You cannot see all the sparkle this card has!!

On the inside, I stamped a sentiment from

"Have a Cool Yule" from Crafty Sprouts.

If you have not taken a look Fontopia

please check out the handbook

Fontopia Handbook

And if you want to buy it

you can order it HERE.
