First try at giant rose

This was my first try at making a giant flower . I cut the rose at 6" inked the edges and glued the petals in. I watched a you tube video as I was making this so I could follow along. I ripped a petal when I was trying to fold the edges. The hardest part was the petals tried to fall out. I am going to make a lot more and hang in my living room. Thanks for stopping by. If u have any tips please share

Theme Day Thursday




Hello and welcome to another Theme Day Thursday
For today's project We got to make 3-D Pretty Princess
Purse. When I was thinking of this Project I was thinking
of a little girl and what little girl does not like Disney
Princesses?
 
 
So I made my purse using Artiste
I cut it out at 5". Next I added some bling
around the handle. I cut out Belle and the happy
ever after from a Disney princess paper pack.
Thanks so much for stopping by today.
Please go check out the other projects that

Nov Blog Hop



 


 
Hello & Welcome to November's Blog Hop

 
Can you believe it is already November?
For this month's hop we have made Christmas projects
for you. If you came over from the very talented Shelly
you are in the right spot.
And hop both days to see some amazing projects
I made all cards this hop. I wanted to get started
on making some for my family & friends.
Now when I signed up for my projects this
month I had forgotten that they were to be
Christmas themed. But instead of changing
what I already picked I took the challenge
and went with it. I am happy with what I came up with
so just remember if you don't have any Christmas themed
cartridges you can still make your projects.
 
Here is my first card the leaves are from
Simply Scarecrow cartridge. I cut them out in CCR
at 2.5" Then I added some xmas red stickles.
 
 

And here is my next card I used Tinkerbell &
friends. Tink is cut out at 4.5" and I added
some Platinum Pearl Liquid pearls to her
wings. The background paper I got from
Erica I just love the purple & blue.
 
 Here is my next card I really like this one
The little girl is cut from Suburbia.
She is cut at 4.5" using CCR. I added
some star dust stickles to her bows
and the bottom of her dress. The bow on
her dress is the negative from the bow in her
hair. And here is a close up of her.


 ok Last card I used Noah's ABC Animals
to make this card. The dove was cut at 3.5" from page
83. I used a Martha Stewart punch for the red
behind the bird. Please join us for our 2 day hops every 1st
weekend of the month and then every day threw the
week for our daily post.

Scrapbook Friday




Hello and welcome to scrapbook Friday from
My Cricut Craftroom. For today's
project we are making Fall pages.
So I used the Free Thanksgiving
in CCR. I love getting free cuts Don't You?
Ok here is my page.

The paper is from DCWV Halloween & Fall Stack
I cut the Give thanks in brown and yellow at 2.5"
then I just staggered them a little to make
them look layered. The Pumpkin and the Leave
was cut at 3.5" I glued the scroll but I left the
pumpkin and the leave unglued
that way I can place my photo behind them. I
also inked the edges of my photo mats with
some new ink that I got for free from a CM
crop that I went to.
 
Thanks so much for stopping by today.

Would you ever guesses it Wednesday

 
 
 
 
 

 
Hello everyone and welcome to another
Great Wednesday over at MCCR we
are hard at work making projects for
you today and everyday. I hope that you
will join us everyday to see our wonderful
girls in action.
 
 
For my project today we were to use Cricut Markers.
So I made this card for Halloween.
I used Create A Critter 2 for my project today.
I love the way the markers make a bold outline
around the letters!
 
 


When you use markers for you project make sure
that you turn your pressure down to 1 or 2 on
your machine. Then turn down the speed to 2.
After you use the marker then put your cutter
back in then cut as normal. Here is how
it should look after you cut.

Thanks so much for stopping by please head over to

Theme Day Thursday



Hello everyone and welcome to theme day Thursday!
For today's theme we got to make something for
a child's b-day. Ans since my daughter's b-day
is coming up on the 27th I wanted to make
her some things just for her. Right now her
favorite colors are Pink & Black. So everything I
made is pink & black. Have to say I am getting a little
tired of all the pink & black. lol.
I have lots of pics to show you. I used Pretty Pennants,
Rock Princess, 3-D pinwheels & Artiste to make my
Party items today! I had to hide and make
everything for this so I can surprise her
on her b-day. So when I get everything set
up together I will post pics!
 
 
This  is her card & envelope
cut from Artiste pg. 69

 



Here is the center piece I made. I cut
the pin wheels all at 3" in CCR when they
had them for free :) I added some bling
and stickles and liquid pearls to them.
I got a small vase put a layer of black 
pebbles on the bottom then I put a chunk
of foam on top of that so my stickes would stand
up straight. Then I added the ribbon around the
glass to hide the foam. Next I added some doodle
bug letters that says Destyne! I really like how this
turned out.
 




This is the banner I made using Pretty Pennants
each piece was cut at 5.5". All the letters
were cut from Rock princess at 3". The cake part
was also cut from Pretty Pennants. I just cut it up to
make it the way I wanted it. I added something
to each top of the pennants here is the H done.
 

This is my last piece it is a lil purse cut from Artiste
pg.41
 
Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Hello all & welcome to Letter of the Day "O"
For today's project I used Create A Critter 2

using it.
 


I cut the owl out at 4" used some liquid pearls to
bling it up some. I cut the branch out at 6" using
the chocolate box core dinations paper. After I cut
the branch I sanded it so the dark red would show
then I added some more liquid pearls to edge the leaves.

at 2.5" & turned them to 90 degree
I cut out 2. One for me & one for my daughter
to make. Here is what we came up with
Oh and BTW hers looks better than mine :)
 
 
We added some bling and some foam squares for the
middle. Super fast & easy. She wears them as bracelet's. They
fit so I just added some Velcro to the ends.
 
For my next project I made a 2 page LO
using Paper Dolls Dress Up I cut the spider, web
bat, & cat all at 2.5" I used black & purple core dinations
paper so when I sanded the faces on the critters it really
showed up. I cut the ghost & frankin Stein at 4". I added
some chalk ink around the ghost. Then I added some
liquid pearls on frankin's face.
