Would you ever guess it Wednesday

 

Good morning & welcome to Would You Ever

Guess Wednesday from My Cricut Craft Room.

For today's project we got to make SHAMU Pages.

I love going & visiting Shamu at Sea World

so I got 5 pages to show you. Here is the first one.

We had to use pink as well as make our projects

on black & white paper.

 

I used Life's a beach for most of my cuts today.

These letters where cut at 2.5" in pink glitter

& then again in black then I just layered them

Here is a close up.

 

 

 

These 2 pages was done with Life's a beach & the

Splash was cut from Create A Critter

 

I hope you have enjoyed seeing my pages & my pics.

Thanks so much for stopping by.







Friday scrapbooking day

Hello Hello Hello

Welcome to another Scrapbook Friday

This is my favorite Day!

 

Today I made a Cute Critter Page.

I use Cricut Craft Room Freebie

to make my page Layout today.

This is a great way to try out a new

cartridge before you buy it. This was just a 

preview of the  cartridge not the full thing. I used

Create A Critter 2. I love the first one

so I knew before I even tried this I would

end up buying it. And I did I got it ordered

 from The lovely miss Erica . She has them

for a  really good deal. Here is her link

http://www.shop.ericascraftroom.com/

OK so here is

my first page.

I cut out Happy twice and layered it at the same size.

I added some stickles to the balloons. I wanted

to cut out some more, but didn't get a chance to

before the free time was up on CCR.

 

I'm sorry I do not remember the size I cut everything out

at I had it written down put misplaced it. Scrap happens

Right? Here is some close ups. I added

some stickles on the pigs hat & buttons. I just

love PIGS :)

 More stickles!!

And here is my second page. 

Thank you so much for stopping by

Have a great day.

Cricut Craft Room Exclusive Playground Equipment

This is another quick post on a 2 page layout

I made using Cricut Craftroom Exclusive

Playground Equipment

 

This is the page that I started with It's from

The Playtime stack by DCWV

This paper is so cute!

Here is what I added.

I cut out the rocking horse at 3" and flip him

to face the left then added

a action wobble. Cause a horse has to wobble right!

Then I added a photo mat & a sun sticker.

Here is a closeup of the horse in action.

 





 

The next page I cut out the swing set & the slide in

CCR. The swing is cut at 3" & the slice at 3" then I

made it a little longer by stretching it a little. This is

what I like about using CCR is so easy and you

can make cuts they way you want them just by using

your mouse.

Thanks so much for stopping by today!

 



3-D projects

Hello Just a quick post to show off

some 3-D projects I made using

Cricut Craftroom Exclusive cartridges.

The Cartridge I used was Independence Day

3-D projects. I made these projects to take to a

4th of July cookout. The 1st one

is a 3-D bag that you can put snacks in

or something small.

 

 

The bag was cut at 4.5" I used a plain blue

card stock & a red shimmer paper.

I used the same paper for this Rosette that I used on the

bag. I  made this  one to fit the page  using  my mini

to cut with. Which I love I have the personal the E2

& the mini. And I love the mini the most. Not that

I would ever give up my others.  The mini is the

one that I use the most on the projects

that I have been doing lately.

Sorry anyhow I had a hard time getting this

to stay together. Finally I found something that held.

I used Beacon 3-in-1 glue. I could not find my

hot glue gun to try that. I'm sure it would have.

These were super easy to put together and I

love the way they turned out. Thanks

for stopping by have a great day!

Friday Scrapbook page

Hello there & welcome to another Scrapbook Friday!!

Today over at MCCR we are making layouts with 4 pics

on a page. I really wanted to try something different

than what I made but the page just didn't turn out right

I wanted to use tiny pics and have them in a half circle

after cutting all my pics up real tiny I could not

get the shape of them right so this is what

I came up with instead.



 

I took a sheet of paper from a Christmas pack then

I added the green strip of shimmer paper & cut

my pics to 4x3. Next I cut out Sweet Memories

from Winter Frolic using CCR at 3.5" I also

cut out my tags from Winter Frolic at 3".

 

 

I used some journal pads and added some ribbon to my

tags.  These pics are from Christmas 8yrs ago! Yea I know

I am a little behind :) These pics are funny & they

are moments that I will treasure for ever. The

first one is of my daughter Destyne & Blue's Clues

which she loved at that age. The second pic is

Destyne laying on her pillow she just loves pillows

and our dog Baby who passed away. The next pic is  of

my husband who has his eyes closed, me & I'm making a

face that until I seen this pic didn't realise how much

I made this face. lol & Destyne is the only one looking

at the camera! The last pic is of me & my husband

sitting on the floor on my daughters little couch. lol.

 

I am so glad that you stopped by to visit me. Please

Letter of the day "J"

Hi everyone welcome to the LETTER of the Day!

Today I went with Jack-o-Lantern. Everyone seems

to  be in a Halloween mood, so I wanted to show

you a quick page I made  I normally put alot more

into my pages & I will add to this. But I wanted to show you

how the markers look when you use them in your Cricut. I

cut out the phrase from pg. 61 of Mini Monsters

using the black marker to make my cut at 3". Then I

used the blade to cut out the phrase. So it outlines

the phrase very nice in black ink.

 

 

 

 

Here is my page. I know it's very plain even for me

Trust me I will add to it. I also cut out the cute

Jack-o-Lantern using Create a Critter at on pg. 70 at 3.5"

 

 

 

 

Please head over to http://mycricutcraftroom.blogspot.com/

100 Cricut Cartridge Blog HOP

 

 

 

 

Hello Everyone! Hope you are having a great Weekend!

I am at Universal Studios in Orlando with my Family

I have not been here in about 10yrs. Pray the rides

dont make me sick. OK enough about that This month

I used Baby Steps, Paisley, & Over the Hill.

I really wanted to make a top hat that is in Over the Hill,

but that hat did not want to be made. So I hope you don't mind

that I had to use something else. I try to make at least one 3-D

item for my hop. That is why I wanted to make the top hat.

Oh well as they say"Scrap Happens" Here is my card that I made

from Over the Hill. I cut it out at 5.5" in CCR.

 

I really like this card it's on pg.14 and is  really easy to

put together. I used some heavy red texture cardstock

for the card and then used some plain blue for the

layers. Then of course I had to add some bling!

Here is the inside.

I stamped the inside & added  some more bling.

This is on it's way to a fellow DT friend that is having a

hard time. I hope it will cheer her up some.

I have used this cartridge a few times & just because

it is a birthday getting older type of cartridge does

not mean that you have to use it for that. I love

finding different uses for the cartridges. Being on this team

helps me with that.

 

Ok my next project is another card I made for

my best friend. She HATES dragonflies. But she

and my husband threw me a surprise birthday party.

So I had to get her back. On day I was in our break

room at work and there was a dead dragonfly

on the ground. So I told a fellow worker to

pick it up (cause I was not about to touch it) and give

it to Robin (my best  friend). Well he threw it on her

I never heard her scream so loud! It was very funny

but when she found out I had something to do with it

she was NOT happy. SO I made her this card!

 



 

I'm hoping she thinks it is cute. We will see. ;)

I cut the dragonfly out from Paisley cartridge at 4"

Then I added some liquid pearls. Super easy to make

 

Ok my last project is a LO. I am still working on

a baby book for a girl at work. So I used Baby steps

for this one.

 



 

I cut the baby sleeping out at 3.5" and the cloud out at

4.5"  I inked the edges of the cloud with brilliance

moonlight white. The nap time I cut out at 2.5" I

inked the top of Nap because it was too close

to the same color as the time. I tried to make the ink

fad from dark to light. But you can't really tell from

the picture. Well I hope you have enjoyed my projects.

Thanks so much for stopping by.
