May 100 Cricut Cartridge Blog Hop 2 Days!

Hello Everyone & Welcome to My Cricut Craft Room 100 Cartridge Blog Hop!This is My Very 1st Blog hop!!!

For my 1st hop I wanted to make something different so this is what I came up with. For my 1st project I made a a travel suitcase mini Album. I seen this on a TV show (can't remember which one) I made one but it didn't turn out. So I tried again & this time much much better ;)
I used the Creative Memories Traveler Cartridge.  

Here is the finished photo. Please scroll down 2 c step by step

The first thing I did was cut out the suitcase they are 5 1/2 x 4 1/4. Then I cut the the covers 4 3/4 x 2  1/2. Next I cut Pack Your Bags and Are We There Yet at 2 1/2. Next I inked the edges of the covers & glued the saying on each. Then glue the covers onto the case but leave a small opening on the top of each this is where the strap goes.

To make the inside cut a sheet of paper 12 x 5 then score as follows: 3" then every 3/4" from there 9 times & the last part will be 3". Next cut 8 pieces of paper 3 x 2 1/2 this will be your photo mats. Next glue your edges of you photo mats to the edge of the stripe that is 3/4". You should have one photo mat on each strip. Turn your paper & add one photo mat to each stripe. Half of your photo mats should face to the right & half to the left. Then glue the back of your paper to each side of the inside of your suitcase. And last of all add your photos.

For my Next project I made a double scrapbook layout using Mickey & Friends Cartridge. I love Mickey! Again I wanted to do something different so I used cricut markers to make these cutouts. I used blue to trace out Mickey then I cut him out. Next I cut  out the Shadow of Miney then I cut out all of the layers and put them together.

For my final project I made my daughter a Mobile for her room.  I seen this is a magazine using butterflies so I made it my way using Rock Princess on page 68 I cut my skulls. I love how Girly this cartridge is. I cut out 12 skull shadows at 2 1/2" . Then I cut 12 of layer 1. I used 12 different colors then flipped the layer 1 & cut 12 more. I cut 2 pieces of dowel 3/16" thick at 6". I wired them in the middle & cut 4 stripes of paper at 5 3/4 x 2". I placed an eyelet on ec piece at the ends. Next I cut 8 pieces of  string about 2ft long. I tied the 2 strings on each piece of dowel. I glued the stripes of paper to the dowels. Next I glued my skulls together and put them back to back on the strings. Cut 4 more strings for the top at about 2-3 ft depending how long you want the mobile to hang. Tie them through the eyelets and then tie them at the top into a loop. Then you can hang it from a hook.
