My day at Exploring Cricut!

Hey All!!!

Today is a QUICKIE post! Got so much going on right now with work and my Sales Trip on Friday!!! SO MUCH TO DO!!!

So, today is my day over at Exploring Cricut, and I wanted to show you the invite that I am working on for one of my BFF's Bridal Shower! Its coming up, and I got an idea from her of what she wanted so I went to work! (Keep in mind, I totally made up a date, actually backdated in case she reads my blog! lol!)

So, she wanted a wedding dress card or something to that effect, so here is something quick that I came up with!

I used Sweethearts for this, and my computer. I used the center function on my Cricut to try to center the words! Used a quick stamp and embossing powder to give the dress some dazzle!!!

Hope you liked my quickie post today!!! Dont forget to enter your 3 2 1 project over at Exploring Cricut!!!

Hope to find you Craftin' and Stampin'!

Exploring Cricut-3 Cricut Cuts,2 Patterned Papers, and 1 Embellishment!

Hey All!!

Today starts a new project over at Exploring Cricut! And this one was a fun one for me! Here are the details of the new challenge:

Make a card, layout, or paper project using 3 Cricut Cuts, 2 Patterened Papers, and 1 Embellishment!

Possibilites are endless for this one! But, since its close to Valentines day, I knew what I wanted to do!

I used the Art Philosophy cartridge to create my project and I wanted 3 different hearts for my project! I also had the CUTEST paper that I have been holding onto! I did use a few pieces of this paper last week though, so I wanted to show it off again!

Here is my project:

 

Supplies:

PAPER: Recollections (all of it, including patterened papers)

CARTRIDGE: Art Philosophy -for the heart cut outs

EMBELLISHMENT- LOVE Bottlecap Bub- Craftin and Stampin Etsy Store. Click HERE

STAMPS: AC moore dollar bin (random stamps from over the years)

 

 

So, be sure to check out the rest of what the DT created for us, then link up YOUR project!!!

 

 

And, for those interested, I still have the following cartridges for sale! They are ALL Gypsy Linked, $20 unless noted, and $2.25 for shipping! I am also selling my Cricut Mini and Cricut Expression 2! I never really understood how to work the Expression 2, and I am MUCH more comfortable with the original Expression! I just adore that one! As for the Mini, I make things bigger than that size, so that wasnt a good fit for me either! Mini is going for $80 or best offer! Expression 2 is going for $150 or best offer (Expression 2 has the wireless card with it as well)!

I am so very happy to show off another SVG that I created for use with the Silhouette Studio software!

This is a 3D Heart that you can put up for decoration for Valentines Day, Weddings, Bridal Showers, or even Anniversary Parties!

The heart measures at 7.75 inches wide by 8.50 inches high by 3 inches deep. I also included a LOVE YA cutout on the front heart!

Its SUPER cute!!! Here is a quick pick of what it looks like all together! I will have a You Tube video showing how you are going to put it together as well! I made the heart in 2 different colors so you can see just how deep it is when its together!

 

 

I just have to say how CUTE I think they turned out!!! I know once you purchase the file, decorate it up, and put it out for guests to see, that you will adore it as well!!!
