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.

MyPink Stamper Spooky Challenge

Another Halloween card I made for a challenge at  My Pink Stamper  I used the PaperDoll Dress Up cart for the witch and her cauldron.

Get Well Card

My Dad is having back surgery on Thurs. and I made this with him in mind.  On the inside it says "That's what we wish for You".
I used A Childs Year for the silhouette , the The Cuttin' Up for the lettering  and a Fiskars border punch so I couold weave the  ribbon.  I also used the I-Rock to put some bling on, I'm beginning to really like that tool.

Halloween

It's hard to believe that Halloween is just around the corner.... where did our summer go??  I recently got the Happy Hauntings and Mini Monsters carts and I finally got the chance to play with them.  
When my  son was young  , Halloween was a big deal around our house.  But wouldn't you know it... he grew up... and it just didn't have the same appeal.
So i thought I'd change it up alittle bit this year.  I'm starting with cards and I'll work my way into doing some decorating.  These 2 carts have some fun things to work with  so  I'll have to see what i can all come up with.
