Would You Ever Guess Wednesday May 8, 2013 - Use a Cricut CakeCartridge To Make a Paper Craft

Today's project from the design team are all made with a Cricut Cake cartridge.

I have to laugh about today's projects...

Two of us used the SAME butterfly in our projects, the other two used the same tea pot. 

Out of all of the cartridges, we each picked the same cartridge and the same images!!! 

I just think that the design team compliments each other VERY well... I am so excited! 

Here is what I made for Bella's room.

Here you can see the butterflies and how they actually look on the curtains. 

Martha Stewart Elegant Cake Art (2.5") , all of the butterflies in this picture.

Square Happy Camper Album.... from the Blog Hop

Square Happy Camper Album....

Here is one of the TWO camping albums I made.

This was all made with Bo Bunny Camp-a-lot papers and embellishments and some embellishments that I made myself.

Here is the cover....

I left it partially blank so the person who would add their pictures and their own title.

The page on the left is a 6x6 stripe paper from the 6x6 pack. Then the cut out is from the 12x12 cutout papers. Then I added some stickers from the cardstock stickers. The page on the right also uses a 6x6 paper as the background, then the cutouts from the 12x12 cutouts paper. I made the silver tag myself and the rest are stickers from one of the 4 sticker sheet sets in this collection.

The page on the left is the dot paper from the 6x6 paper stack. The tag on the top right is from the embellishments, the stickers on the top are from the 12x12 sticker pack. The cut out at the bottom is from the 12x12 cutouts paper.

The page on the right is the pack of the 12x12 cutout paper. No embellishments at all.

Each of these pages are from the 12x12 cut out papers. The tent on the right is a sticker from the 3-d cardstock stickers. The banner was cut from Martha Stewart All Occasion Cake Art. Cut at 1 1/2" I used my Xyron sticker maker to make the banner letters into stickers.

The page on the left is from the 12x12 cut outs paper. The page on the right is from the 6x6 paper and the row of animals on the bottom is from the back side of the 12x12 cut out paper. The tag on the top left I made.

This page is from the bottom right corner of the 12x12 paper. The Man with a plan is a sticker.
