Erica's Craft Room Card Creating Tuesday !!!

I  enjoyed making this card...I used CCR ( cricut craft room ) and New Orleans Party digital download. I cut the mask in all 4 layers 4" and the sign 2"...on the sign I liked the font better so I used it instead of a cut out layer over the base layer. I used the cuttle bug on the Stipe paper (Best Creation doubled  sided paper "a walk in a garden ") The deep purple is core paper.  I used the same folder and embossed then distress it. The sign is the same paper as the stipe  just the back side. I wish I knew the brand of the fine glitter paper its very smooth to the touch and cut like butter in the machine ( E2) .

Thanks for checking out my card and please go back to Erica's blog and support the other great cards.

Have a Craft Day !!!

Happy  Chinese New Year 

On Mondays we use the Imagine, E2, Mini, or Cricut CraftRoom 

Today I used Cricut CraftRoom and  CCR Exclusive Cartridges 

3D Chinese Lanterns

Chinese Character's

I Choose Lantern #6 ( you can download a digital handbook for instructions at cricut.com)

 I cut the lantern base 2x at 9" then glued them together and scored at the Marks and glued together...

 The top was cut at 10 1/2 " wide to fit the top ...

 I then choose Chinese character "Friend" cut 4x at 3 1/2" and a black cord to hang it from ...

 Here it is the finished Lantern I added gold stickles ....

These are for Classroom Decorations today ....

"Year of the Dragon" is cut 5" from Pagoda ;  2012 is cut from Doddletype 1"

Here are all 6 Chinese Character's cut out at 4" and then I put the name of Character  on a card using Cutting Up cartridge at 1" in CCR to weld together  ....

Erica's Cricut Craft Room IMAGINE-ation! Mondays!

Today I made a card for my Dad's Birthday ...

I used Imagine More Cards Cartridge 

 Because I used the Imagine to Cut and Print to save me a lot of time I got to take out my other tools to embellish the card. I printed and cut 2 sheets to work with.

 I used Embossing folders for the background ( then added TH Distress Ink)  and the brown scallop... I used clear embossing power with an embossing pen for the cupcake wrapper. I used glue and chunky glitter and heat gun to make the frosting. For the candle I used 3 embossing powders.

 Here is the finished card and envelope...

The match set... I hope he likes it ... Happy Birthday  Dad !!

Have a Happy Crafty Day and don't forget to check out the other projects on Erica's Craft room ( My Cricut Craft Room)

When I saw this cartridge I had to have it....

Victorian Romance 

I collect Angels and love the color Pink. So this was a given for a card. I cut the Angel at 4" I cut 'love' 1"
I added stickles to the wings. I made my own background paper for 5 papers.

 For the second card my husband quotes  the forest gump movie line "Life is a box of chocolate" So I made this card for valentines day.... I used CCR (cricut craft room to weld my letters)  The Cartridge I used was Lyrical Letters 'Love' was cut 1.4" and Jumbo 'is a box of ' was cut 1" Loop Dee Loo
The word Chocolate is from sweet shop I used all 3 layers at 4.5" wide

 My 3rd  card I used Lyrical Letter 'note' 4.5" and Victorian Romance for the Heart 3.5"
For all the paper on the cards  I used echo park paper 'Yours Truly'  and some basic solid card stock.
I used Tim Holtz tissue tape for the music strips.
