Christmas Countdown - 3D Object

Today is April 25th, and that means

Christmas Countdown

over at My Cricut Craft Room.

This month we were challenged

with making a 3D object.

I used Tags, Bags, Boxes and More 2 to

make 2 little treat boxes today.

Here is a sneak peek:

This first box was made with the

Cone Box on page 63.

This was cut at 9", I used the

scoring tool to score the lines

before cutting.

I used Coordinations Glittter cardstock.

This was a fairly easy project.

I think I got it done in about an hour.

I embossed the tree with the

Divine Swirls Cuttlebug folder.

I added different colored

gems for the decorations

on my Christmas Tree.

I added a topper made with ribbon.

The tag and sentiment

are from My Creative Time

Teeny Tag Greetings.

This box has a little loop at the top

so it would be great to fill with candy

an hang on your own tree!!

Although I am not happy with the way this

project came out, I am still

going to show it to you!!

This box was cut at 5.5" from page 47.

The paper is DCWV.

The phrase was cut at 1"

I could not get the extra snowflake piece

to line up properly!!

Anyway, thanks for stopping by today.

Mother's Day Card - Card Creating Tuesday

Hello all my crafty friends!!

So glad you stopped by today to see

what I have made. The theme this week for

Card Creating Tuesday is Mother's Day.

I have a few Mother's Day cards to

make so this is my first one.

I used the Ole cartirdge for my card today.

I love the beautiful latin inspired images

on this cartridge.

Here is a sneak peak.

This bird can be found on page 28 of the handbook.

I only cut the Shift layer at 1.5".

I hid some of the extra lines that

I did not want on my design.

Next I cut this flower image from

page 28 of the handbook.

I flipped it with my gypsy

and cut all the layers at 3".

I addd Liquid Pearls in Canteloupe

and Mint Green and some Copper Stickles.

This Phrase was cut from page 36 at 2".

I covered the top layer with Patina Stickles.

It means "Happy Mother's Day"!!

All the paper is from DCWV Mango Frost

cardstock stacks. I added some

Stardust Stickles around the outside.

I used the Paisley Cuttlebug folder

and added some CTMH ribbon in Juniper.

I hope you enjoyed my card today, and please

visit My Cricut Craft Room to see the other wonderful

cards my design team sisters have made today!!

I will be entering this card in the following challenges:

Little Scrap Pieces
Die Cuttin Divas

Tea Time Birthday Card

Hello all my crafty friends. I got to spend some time in my craft room today, so I made a card for my
stepdaughter's birthday. When I asked her what she wanted, one of the things was an Iced Tea Maker from Teavana. I asked "what is Teavana?". Well let me tell you, Teavana is this wonderful tea store.
They sell all types of loose leaf tea. Now I like tea, but am not a crazy tea drinker, but after finding this

store, I may become one!! The have they most aromatic, delicious teas!!

I not only bought her the Iced Tea Infuser and a gift set of teas, I bought the Iced Tea Infuser and some loose leaf teas for my husband and I too!! This might become a new obsession!!

So, to go along with what I hope is a wonderful gift, I made Monique a tea themed birthday card!!

I used the Love You A Latte cartridge.
