Tags Bags Boxes and More 2 Easter Basket

Donna & I were talking about Easter this afternoon and she asked me if I had Max a present for Easter.  All I could say was "No".  I guess I'm a bad pet parent.  However, I got busy and made him an Easter basket.  I still have  time to shop for doggie treats.  This is his basket.

I used Tags Bags Boxes and More 2 Cricut Cartridge to cut the basket.  I cut it at 7".  It takes a 24" mat to get it all on.  It takes most of the mat but it's a pretty basket once it's folded together.  The puppy is cut from Just because cards.

This side of it has an image cut from Enjoy The Seasons Imagine Cartridge.

This image is also from Enjoy The Seasons.

This image was cut from Mickey Font Cricut Cartridge.

I hope Max will like his basket.  He will especially like the treats I'm sure.  Thank you for stopping by today.  I'm looking forward to the Easter service at church.  God's love is so amazing.  May He bless you in all you endeavor to do today.  Peggy

Fantabulous Cricut Harvest Blessings Crawl

Welcome to our blog and the Fantabulous Cricut Harvest Blessings Crawl...Fantabulous Cricut's version of a blog hop!  It's Fall and everyone at Fantabulous Cricut has decided to create projects to give thanks for our Harvest Blessings!   Each Design Team member will be featuring an original Fall project that includes Brown, Orange and Red – along with at least one Cricut cut.

If you've come from visiting Melissa at Create With The Cricutkateer, you're in the right place! If you've just happened across my blog and would like to play along with our Fantabulous Cricut Crawl, start HERE .

Make sure to check out each DT member's blog for some awesome inspiration! There will be PRIZES along the way at some of our DT members' blogs, AND there will be a Grand Prize up for grabs at FCCB for one participant that submits a "Harvest Blessings" project at FCCB!

When I started thinking about my "Harvest Blessings", I knew immediately the biggest blessing in my life next to the Lord Jesus Christ, is my family.  How I decided to portray this was to create napkin rings and place cards for our Thanksgiving table.  Here is a picture.  They're not extremely detailed and were quite simple to make.  I'm working on another project I hope to post later this week.  So check back.

I used the Thanksgiving Cricut cartridge to cut the napkin rings and the placecards from shimmer paper.  I love that paper but it is very hard to photograph.  From the Enjoy the Seasons Imagine cartridge, I printed and cut the leaves and acorns for the napkin rings and then the pumpkins for the place cards.  I used the font on the exclusive Cricut Craft Room Basics cartridge to cut out the names.  I welded the letters together.

My prize will be a $10.00 gift card from Michael's.  In order to be eligible please be a follower and leave a comment on this post.  This blog hop will be for one week.  You will have until Sunday night at midnight to enter.  Since FCCB will be announcing the Grand Prize winner on Wednesday, Nov. 23, that is when I will announce my winner. Unfortunately, I will only be able to mail within the continental United States.

Now it's your turn! Let's see your Harvest Blessings projects!  Make sure to include a Cricut cut somewhere on your project and be sure to use the colours Brown, Orange and Red as well!  Post them on the Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Blog.  I can't wait to see what you create.  I'll be over there checking.

Next stop… Robin's blog at Robin's Creative Cottage.  Go and see what she has in store for you today.  And when you're done, make sure to link up your project to FCCB's Fantabulous Cricut Crawl post to be entered into the contest!

Thank you for stopping by today.  I know you are going to love my team mates projects.  God Bless You!!!! Peggy 
Happy Crawling!

Autumn Is A Second Spring Where Every Leaf is a Flower

This card is a spin off of a card made by Bobby of the Cricut Couple.  He posted an Accordian Card with an accordian fold piece of cardstock behind the frame. Click on their name to see it.  I made one after I saw theirs but Bobby's is exquisite.  I love the accordian fold but was trying to think of something similar without being so thick.  This is what I came up with.  Oh, by the way,  I am entering this card to audition for My Craft Spot Design Team.

This card is 6X6".  I used Kraft paper for the card base (12X6" then folded in half).

 I cut two square frames using Elegant Edges.  Make sure the openings are not the same size.  The paper is from the Imagine Enjoy the Seasons Cartridge.  

For the piece behind the frames, I cut a piece of Kraft paper at 6X6" and ran it through my Fiskars Crimper.  It gave it a ripple effect, not an accordian fold but a nice effect.  
 The image is a free digistamp from Create With TLC.  Paulette is the most generous lady with her digistamps.  If you like digital images, you should frequent her site.  She gives away images and sentiments daily.  I colored it with Promarkers, then highlighted the leaves with Stickles.  Do you see the little clouds I cut out?  I held them on the  image while I applied chalk to the background.  When I finished, it looks like I have clouds in the sky.  

The leaves and the acorns on the card are cut from the Enjoy The Seasons cartridge also, except for the two large brown ones.  Those are embellishments from my stash.  I decorated the leaves and acorns with Stickles also.  I love bling.  

I put the cutouts from the front frames on the inside for the message along with a branch cut from the above cartridge.  Oh yes, I inked everything with brown ink.  

Thank you for stopping by today.  I hope you're having a great day.  Donna and I love to read your comments.  God Bless You!!!! Peggy

Art Nouveau Butterfly Side Flap Card

So I made the trip through Atlanta up to Ringgold, GA to see Donna and family.  Atlanta on a Friday afternoon is not fun.  Last night we did a little creating.  We came up with this card.  We couldn't get it finished early enough to get it posted at our usual time, hence the late post.  We couldn't come up with a better name so we're just calling it a side flap card.  Sorry about my finger in the picture.

Cut a 5X7.5" strip of paper from double sided paper.  Score at 2.5" and fold on the score line.

I chose the Butterfly on page 53 of the Art Nouveau Cricut Cartridge.  It was cut at 3".  With the Imagine, I chose colors from the Enjoy the Seasons Imagine Cartridge and flood filled the different parts of the butterfly.  You can just choose different colors of cardstock and cut on the Expression.  Cut 2 of each.

I put the layers together and added Star Dust Stickles to some of the dots on the butterfly.

Attach one of the butterflies to the front flap as shown.  Cut a background shape for the second butterfly and attach it.  I used one of the shapes on the Imagine and used one of the accent colors in the butterfly to color it.


On the inside, cut 2 1/2"X5" strip of pattern paper and 2 1/4" of the solid  and adhere it to the front flap.  Adhere the second butterfly directly under the one on the flap so they are lined up together.
 I hope you enjoy making one of these cards.  Thanks for stopping by today.  Have a wonderful weekend.  God Bless You!!!  Peggy
