Would You Ever Guess Wednesday December 5, 2012 Making Coloring Pages


Today the challenge to the design team was to make coloring pages.
Shelley made a great one using Santa's Village. 
I am re-posting something I made in July and a video tutorial....
I used the gel pens but it also shows you how to layer your images to put together many cricut items and also gives you some insight on how to get Mickey and the other characters made just right! Make sure to scroll down and check it out! 


On this project Shelley used Imagine Cartridge Santa's Village. 
To see more on this project please visit her blog at:







These were recorded in July..... 
Sorry it is so quick. But these are my favorite things to show you.....

My IMAGINE-ation Monday December 3, 2012 Angel theme


Today's theme is an Angel theme.
We will announce a few Seasonal Design team members later today :) 


Liz used Christmas Noel to make this cute giftcard holder. 
To see how she did it, check out her blog here







Tami used Joys of the Season to make this card. To see more, check out her blog here http://scrappinrabbitdesigns.blogspot.com/2012/11/monday-december-3rd-mccr-angels.html






Mary used the Imagine cartridge Snow Angel and A Quilted Christmas to make an Angel card.  All the details are on her blog





Nadja used Inspired Heart and  Elegant Edges cartridges for her project. 
For more details about her project take a look at her blog at http://nadjarobbins.blogspot.com/2012/12/my-imagine-ation-monday-december-3-2012.html



I did not use the Angel theme.... but I wanted to show you what I made for this weekend's Blog Hop..... I used all Cricut Craft Room Exclusive Holiday Cards. These are simple 2 step cards.... I might have added step 3-4 steps on some of them to make the inside more layered....

This is not Cricut at all but I wanted to share it..... This is my back window of the house.
 I just used silver ribbon and some ornaments I had pulled out with the decorations. 




This is one of the new Cricut Craft Room Exclusive Cards. 

 All of today's cards were cut at 5 1/2"



This is Holiday Card #3 with Imaginisce paper.


 





This is Holiday Card 5, I have to be honest.... I didn't like how the front came out. 
Solid colored paper is my recommendation. This was My Minds Eye Paper
Cut at 5 1/2"

 



This is Holiday Card #6 at 5 1/2" This was Martha Stewart paper.








If you missed this weekend's blog hop here are the blogs that you can still visit and see what they made!!!

My favorite time of year! 

We are doing a few things different than we did last year..... 
Instead of the 25 days of Christmas from December 1-25, we ALWAYS like to stay ahead so that you have plenty of time to make your crafts.... so we have started today November 12th. There will be a ton of inspiration and a few of last year's amazing projects, we just might dig them up again for you because they were that great! 


This also is the time of year for our seasonal design team.... 

This is for December 1-31, 2012 
This is not for a permanent place on our design team. This is just to help out our design team who works so hard to create and share with you all year long. We give them time off so they can craft for their homes, families and friends, and just enjoy a little R & R. 
But we want to keep giving you a ton of inspiration. 
So this term is ONLY from December 1-31, 2012.
 It is similar to a guest designer, but for a month rather than just one day. 
So applications are accepted today through Sunday December 2, 11:59pm EST.
The Seasonal team will be announced Monday December 3, 2012 
To apply please email your application to EricasTeam@aol.com 
with the subject line Seasonal DT Application 
Please email me ONE project you have made with your cricut.
Also include your name, facebook name, email address and blog address. 

Beginners are VERY VERY welcome. All I ask for beginner and advanced talent, is that when you post try to give as many instructions as possible. 
You MUST use cricut cartridges, no SVGs and no Digi-stamps. 
During this time there should be NO solicitation for sales of ANY kind. 
This is just to showcase your talent and blog.
You will be posting at least one project a week during December, you may post more if you would like.
