Cricut Circle May Magazine Challenge #2- Make It Your Way

Image
So this is my entry for the Make It Your Way contest for the Cricut Circle Magazine contest. The contest was to pick a project from the May issue of the Cricut Circle Magazine that inspired us and make it our own. I fell in love with the postage stamp shaped card on page 42 of the magazine(original card made by Cristal Hobbs~ aka Pinky), and so I decided to do my own postage stamp styled card, which let me tell you was a little bit of a challenge when you don't have the Spring Holiday Cards Cricut Cartridge, lol! I ended up using a tag from Gypsy Font as my stamp base and then welded a square from Plantin Schoolbook to one edge to make a card base. Then I cut another square(4.67" x 4.67")(I used my Gypsy so I could make sure everything would layer correctly). The scalloped border is also from Plantin Schoolbook, it's the Tall Ball feature(1.5" tall by 4.67" wide). The shoes are from Gypsy Wanderings, I placed 2 of them(at 2.11" high), welded them to how...

My Creative Time Throwback Thursday Challenge

Image
So this is my entry for Emma's Throwback Thursday Challenge over at My Creative Time . The challenge was to use Doodlecharms or any older cartridge and the color blue had to be somewhere in our project. Well I don't have Doodlecharms so I used Paisley which is one of the oldest shape cartridges I have! Here's what I came up with: Recipe: Purse, cut from Paisley at 3.5" Patterned paper: Echo Park Little Girl Collection Solid Cardstock: The Paper Company Flowers: Prima Ribbon: Bazzill Basics Stamp: My Pink Stamper's Pink-alicious set Stardust Stickles Ink: Momento Rich Cocoa I think it turned out cute, this is a super quick card, I think it was 15 mins, including cutting the purse & doing the picture, lol, normally my creative process takes a little longer. :) Happy Crafting!
