1st Hair Cut- Exploring Cricut

Welcome everyone!  Glad you could join me today for the this weeks Design Team daily project at Exploring Cricut. http://exploringcricut.blogspot.com/

Today I was having some fun using the Cricut cartridges CTMH - Artiste, Creative Memories - Tiny Treasures, Baby Steps and Wall Décor and More. For today's project it was our choice but, we were to use at least 2 Cricut Cuts. I decided to make a scrapbook page again for my beautiful granddaughter.

 

 This is Abby and Grandma 8/10/2013

Yes, this is me the proud Grandma.

 So on to my project.  I thought of Baby's 1st Hair cut. So I cut the little girl at 4" from the cartridge Baby Steps. The word 1st Hair Cut was cut from the cartridge Creative Memories - Tiny Treasures at 1.833" (from the Cricut Craft Room)

 The blocks were cut at 2" from Baby Steps. The scissors were cut at 1.5" from the Wall Décor and More Cartridge.

 As always I stamped the little girls face with the Peachy Keen Face Stamps with my Memento Tuxedo black ink. Oh yes, I tried something different with my background the layers were cut at 12"x12", 11.5"x11.5" and 11.25"x11.25" I placed all the layers so they matched at the left corner.

 

I hope you enjoyed my project.

 1st Tooth - My Cricut Craft Room

Welcome to Kathy's Corner

Today the design team was challenged to make a project with the Tooth Fairy. Check it out below.  

 

Welcome everyone! Glad you could join me for today's project at My Cricut Craft Room.  http://mycricutcraftroom.blogspot.com/

Today I used The First Few Years, A Child's Year and Paper Dolls Dress Up Cricut cartridges to make my layout. I have to say I made another 12" x 12" layout for my granddaughter's scrapbook.

 

 

 I used some of my favorite colors for this layout. Pink and purple are the greatest girly colors. I was not real sure about this layout with those colors but, I think it turned out okay. I started with making the Tooth Fairy from the cartridge A Child's Year and I went into Paper Dolls Dress up and cut cloths, hair and her crown. It does take a little fancy trimming to make the dress and hair fit just right.

 Then I thought about when I was a little girl (a long long time ago) my Mother and I would get my tooth that I lost that day and put it under my pillow and I said my prayers and went to bed. I thought I would just wait for that tooth fairy to come and see how she got that tooth from under my pillow. Of course, I fell asleep. But, in the morning surprise!

I would find a quarter for the bigger teeth and a nickel for the smaller ones. Geeezzz a quarter and nickels. My children only wanted dollar bills. Wow!!! So the bed was next. Then I added the mats for the photos and a frame. Oh yes, I forgot, I always got a new tooth brush from the tooth fairy,  We have to Cherish the little things in life because our children don't stay little long enough. I hope I didn't bore you with my old fashion memories. Thanks for reading on and on.

1st Bath layout for Exploring Cricut

 

 Welcome everyone!  Glad you could join me today for the this weeks Design Team daily project at Exploring Cricut. http://exploringcricut.blogspot.com

 

 

Today I have made a 12" X 12" Layout using the Cricut Cartridges Paper Dolls for Everyday, Baby Steps and Sesame Street Friends. I worked on my project in the Cricut Craft Room.

 

 I made this layout for my Granddaughter's Scrapbook. She had her 1st real bath the other day and just loved it. So, I thought I would work on her next scrapbook page.

 I found this really pretty Nursery Paper pack at Michaels one day and I just love it. So many pretty pages of card stock.

 First of all I cut the Photo mats at (back to front) 6" x 4.75", 4.5" x 5.75", 5.5" x 4.25" and 5.25" x 4".  I then added some pink twine and these really really cute pink baby feet and hands Brads I found at the Eyelet Outlet.

 I then cut the bath tub, baby, towel and shampoo. I love using the faces from Peachy Keep Stamps. I think it really adds life to your page.

I used brown and white twine to make the hair and added a pink twine bow. I used my White Gel pen to ass some highlights. I put it all together and I am really proud of this layout. I love it and I hope you enjoy it also.

Abby's  Sign- Exploring Cricut

 Welcome everyone!  Glad you could join me today for the this weeks Design Team daily project and challenge at Exploring Cricut. http://exploringcricut.blogspot.com/

Today I was having some fun using the Cricut cartridges CTMH - Artiste, Disney - Mickey and Friends and Disney - Hannah Montana. For today's project Disney Dreaming. So, I made a Minnie Mouse Door Sign for my Grand Daughters Room.

 I found this awesome shiny paper at Wal-Mart last night. My first thought was to use this for the background of the Minnie sign. I cut out my Minnie Mouse at 5.25" and I put her together.

 I love Minnie Mouse! The I cut the Name plate : Black layer - 6.25" x 4.25", Red layer - 6.25" x 4" and the white layer - 6" x 3.75". I used my ATG gun to put these together.

 

. Then I cut out the letters at 1.5" and used the shadow feature for the background. I used 2 pink Eyelets at the top so I could lace the ribbon thru and the paper not rip. I hope you enjoyed my project.

Today I have made a 12" X 12" Layout. I used Cricut Cartridges - A Child's Year, Disney Pooh Font Set, Storybook and Teddy Bear Parade.

 

 

 

 I can't wait until I can hold my new Granddaughter and read her one of my favorite books with Winnie the Pooh. So I made this layout for that moment.

 I have include Winnie and Tiger reading a book. The Tiger and Winnie the Pooh were cut out at 3".

 The Letters were cut out using the Storybook cartridge at 1" and 2".

I hand cut the banners in  the purple and yellow. I had the yellow in my stash from another project. I had run it thru my Cuttlebug with the Darice Small Flower folder. The purple paper I purchased and it was already embossed. The photo mats were cut at 4.5" X 6", 4.25" X 5.75" and 4" X 5.5". I hope you enjoyed my layout.
