Flaunt it Friday- Challenge 1

I found a new challenge blog called Flaunt it Fridays.  Every Friday they will be posting  a new challenge, this is their first week and to celebrate they are having a bloghop with some very talented designers.  The first challenge is to make a project with the Winter Frolic cart using the snowman on pg 29.
My project is a 6x6 wooden tile that I painted with some acrylic paint.  I cut the snowman at 2.5 inches and the tag on the same page at 3.5in.  I added some stickles to the mittens and earmuffs for some added bling and used the Peachy Keen  Small Snow faces for the snowmans face.

Christmas cards



This past weekend was the opener for deer hunting (rifle)  in our area.  My husband, the big hunter that he is,  left me to go find the big bad buck.  So while he was off playing in the woods  I packed my craft stuff up  and went to my sil's to play in her craft room. Not only did we play but we also got some shopping done ( I guess that's playing too), went to a Stampin' Up party, had a little bit of wine and I even got some  Christmas cards done.

Circle Blog Weekly challenge




This is a layout I did for a challenge on the Circle blog. You had to follow a sketch, had to be birthday themed, needed to use buttons and also use at least 2 different cuts with the cricut.
    This is a layout of my grandson , at his 3rd birthday party.  I used the Mickey Mouse font for the lettering   and cut the cupcake from Doodlecharms. I used  the buttons for the sprinkles  and the cherry on top of the cupcake.

Haunted House

It took me all weekend but I finally got it done... yeah me!! This 3-D house is from The Haunting cartridge. Its cut out of 12X12 paper  using the fit to page option on the cricut which ended up being 7 inches. The characters are from the same cart and were cut at 2.5inches. I think it turned out pretty awesome now all it needs is some cobwebs and some ghosts. I may have to do that tomorrow, I' m pretty burned out .

Iron on Vinyl



I made this for a friend's daughtera, I hope they like.
This was my first attempt at using  the iron-on  vinyl. I ordered the vinyl from www.vinylexpressions.com. I used the George cart for the lettering and cut   them at 3in.(back) and 2 in. (front).  For her name I used the Gypsy Font cart, welded  the letters with the Gypsy and cut at 1.25 in. then blinged it up a little bit with my I-Rock.  Overall, I'm pretty happy with it . The trick to it is remembering to cut everything backwards and use the flip button on the E.
