Beach layout with Timberline paper

 Just wanted to share this Beach layout I created for our National Scrapbook Day event. Our theme was Luau Party so I used bright colors with the Artbooking cartridge for the waves and trees. The Flip Flops and sunglasses are from the Pack your Bag cartridge.

Easter Pop Up Box card

 I have been seeing these fun Pop Up Box Cards all over and couldn't wait to try one out. I was surprised that they were so easy! Here is one I made using Close To My Heart's Art Philosophy Cricut cartridge and the Simply Charmed cartridge. Close To My Heart colors are Smoothie, Crystal Blue and Buttercup. CTMH Stamp sets: B1446 Hoppy Easter and D1540 In the Background. You can find a tutorial for these super cute cards here.

I love that you can fold your card flat to mail. 

 Have a beautiful day! Friends,

Happy New Year! Today I want to share an easy layout made with CTMH newest cricut cartridge-Artbooking. This cartridge is amazing and a must have for scrapbookers with over 700 images including 30 two-page scrapbook layouts. For this layout I used the camera on page 40, film strip and photo mat from page 41 and the title from page 51. Thanks for stopping by!

Heart 2 Heart Challenge: Moving On

Hello! I was honored this month to be asked to be a guest designer at the Heart 2 Heart Challenge blog. The challenge is called Moving On, and must contain an interactive element or something that moves. I decided to make this fun little beanie hat gift card holder that I saw here. 

This is what it looks like when it's closed:

And here it is when it's open! 

Of course, I made it a little differently by using my Cricut and the Art Philosophy cartridge. Here are the cuts I used. 

Adhere the Frosted half circle to one half of the cardstock circle. Fold up the flower to make the pom pom on top. Layer the strips onto the scalloped piece. 

Glue the other half of the cardstock circle onto the back of the scalloped piece towards the bottom.

Slide the layered half circle in between the two pieces. 

Hold onto the edge and punch a hole and add an eyelet.
Here is how the back looks.
And here is how the front looks. You can slide a gift card right in there! 

I added the pom pom piece in between the layered patterned paper and cardstock piece, then added the embellishments, and stamped it for the final touches. 
Why don't you try this challenge for yourself? Have fun and make sure to link it up at the Heart 2 Heart blog HERE!

These are the items I used to make this project:
adhesive
eyelet

Happy Crafting!

Treat Box Card

 
Hello friends! Today I am sharing a Treat box card that we made at our Team Meeting last week. These are so fun to make and turn out so cute!!! Each box holds 5 Hershey nuggets. We used the new Sparkle and Shine paper from Close to my Heart. I used the Art Philosophy Cricut cartridge for the circle(2.25") and scallop circle(2.75"). I also used Art Philosophy for the cut out shape on the box. With Cricut Craft Room I was able to stretch the shape to the size I wanted and position it on my mat right where I wanted it to cut. The idea was inspired by my friend Debbi Fournier. Thanks for stopping by!
