My Mind can Design Monday May 20, 2013 - Child Theme Cartridges with a twist

Erica (me) made these first 4 layouts. I used Cricut The First Few Years for all of them and I just followed the book for the dimensions suggested. I love this cartridge because everything is already proportional for a 12x12 layout. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE this cartridge. They layouts seem pretty simple or as jazzy as you want to make them. You can see in the first one how much extra "bling" I added to it. I also used stickles to sparkle up the borders. I also used white liquid pearls to make the white dots "pop"

 

This is Best Creation Safari Girl paper (a few years old)

This is American Crafts Neapolitan paper collection

"Happy Day" and the Ice Cream cone is from The First few Years

Shelly used Disney Happily Ever After Cricut cartridge to make this travel tissue holder. To see how she made it please visit her blog at  cardsbyshelly

Festive Friday December 14, 2012 Snowflake Theme

Today's theme is snowflakes....
I decided to show you one of my most favorite cards I have ever made.....

  I used the A Child's Year Cricut Cartridge to cut this card out at 7" and the snowflakes at 2 3/4" or 3 1/4" I used the I-top to make the middle of the snowflakes and Bo Bunny Paper Snowfall for my card!   

Here are some additional photos as I was making this card.

This was the way the card was cut out with the snowflakes and snowdrops....

Before I added the 3-D snowflakes.

This is the inside of the card. I couldn't write on the brown so I added another piece of paper which was lighter for me to write on. I also had extra pieces so I used the tag and the extra snow flakes for the inside.

Here is a side view to see how dimensional this card really is....

As you saw above I made a different Christmas Card.... Brown and Blue.... 

I know not typical, but too cute!

Here are my snowflakes from my brown glitter paper.

I turn my I-top punch upside down so I can center what I want for the middle of my brad... 

Here is a close up of the snowflakes and Sentiment

Here are all of the items I used. My I-top, A Child's Year Cricut Cartridge, my I-top punches. 

I used Brilliance Brown ink not the blue pictured. 

I used Best Creation Brown and Blue Glitter paper along with the Bo Bunny Snowfall Paper.

I cut this Journal tag from the Bo Bunny Paper

I hope you enjoyed today's recap of last year's card. 

Would You Ever Guess Wednesday October 31, 2012 HALLOWEEN, using a shadow feature or Tag feature

Today the design team's challenge was to use a shadow feature or Tag feature from any cartridge. 

I used a 3-D feature. 

I made these two wooden face containers last year and I made the little owl bag in the middle. I use Artiste cut at 3 1/2" and the eyes were cut proportionally. 

I cut the word spooky at 1 1/2" on the back of the bags. 

I made this last year using Pumpkin Carvings Cricut cartridge. 

at 9"

This was just a cute backdrop for the pictures. The house is from Yankee Candle (last year)
