CC May Challenge

I hope you are all having a great Saturday!  Today I created my submission for the Cricut Circle Monthly Challenge.  The challenge was to use three of the prompts in a row from the tic-tac-toe board. 

I choose to use the bottom row and make a wedding card for my friends who are getting married in a few weeks.  I am really excited with how the card turned out!  Enjoy!

Quick Gift Bag

I hope this post finds everyone ready for another great week!  Here is a super quick gift bag I decorated using the Imagine.  I didn't have much time, but wanted to jazz up the bag (from Target) a little.  I used the Nursery Tails cart and a few pop dots to add these little butterflies for decoration.  Enjoy!

Imagine DT Creation

My best friend was the one who pushed me to get the imagine so I decided that I had to make him a nice card with it to show him my appreciation.  I found this CUTE image on Nursery Tails that fit the occasion perfectly!  I am having so much fun using the imagine machine.  I love the quality of the images that it produces.  It is also so simple to use :) 

For this image, I printed the image flat and then printed the layers for the animals and the reeds.  I used used foam dots to give the card dimension.  One foam dot was used for the animals and two were stacked to add even more dimension to the reeds.  Enjoy!

CC Monthly Challenge #1

As promised, here is the CC blog monthly challenge.  The challenge was to make a scrapbook layout or home decor item with the theme of "Celebrating Creativity."  You had to use the shadow feature (which I used on the font), embellishments, and patterned paper.  I decided to make a home decor item to give to a friend who enjoys putting out decorative books and photo albums on her coffee table.  I bought a cheap photo album and covered it in pink paper.  I then decorated it with my cut out images and embellishments :)

Enjoy!

I hope everyone is having a great week!  My imagine arrived yesterday and I was so excited!!!!  I will still be posting regular cricut projects as well, but here is one of the first projects I created with the imagine :)  I used my favorite Create a Critter!  The scalloped imagine in the back is on the machine, and I filled it in with a pattern from Nursery Tails.  I have not had too much time to mess around with the imagine yet, as I have conferences this week, but I can't wait to explore some more.  I also added a little glitter glue on the flower stems and am going to add it to the My Pink Stamper "Bling it Up" Imagine challenge from last week.  Enjoy!
