Sun-filled day

Today's theme for My Cricut Craft Room is Fun in the Sun. The team was challenged to use a Sun image. My sis is starting to get into Project Life and well we get into trouble together so I am wetting my toes with this project life page. I like the flexibility that PL gives but I also enjoy the "old style" of creating layouts with my Cricut. I plan on using a little of both styles.

 

This is what the card looked like before the sun/sand dollar image

Here you can see how I used little journaling papers from the kit to mat the pics on

 

 

Recipe:

Create a Critter Cartridge - Sun cut at 2.66 x 2.41

Peachy Keen Stamp -PK641 Princess Faces 1 1/8

Red gel pen for the lips

Memento Tuxedo Black Ink

Life's a Beach Cartridge - Sand Dollar cut 2 x 2 / Star fish cut 1 x 1

 

"Life is good at the Beach" Sentiment is from Michaels

Memento Tuxedo Black Ink

Graduation

Here is my Design Team post for Card Creating Tuesday over at My Cricut Craft Room! I made this for my male cousin whom is graduating from High School TODAY!!  I googled his school colors, gold and black.

Recipe:

Card Base is a purchased, folded 5" x 5" blank white card from Studio G

Graduation Cap - Wild Card Cricut Cart- Shape cut 6.07" x 5.71"

This image comes ready for a shape style card what I did was folded it along the score and used it on top of my blank card.

The image has a hole already for the tassel but I wanted to embellish it with a gold eyelet

Tassel was created by putting some gold "Holiday Ribbon" from Target thru the eyelet and taping it down on the inside then I folded the cap and I used some pop up tape under it

Gold stickers from years ago for the 2013

Memento ink in Tuxedo Black

Pink Stamper "Sweet Baby" stamp set - Congratulations!

Pink by Design "Just for U" Stamp set - Proud of U for the inside of the card
