Some Bunny Special

This time I decided to use the tag feature on the "Wrap It Up" Cricut cartridge to create this cute gift tag.  It would work for a birthday, Mother's Day, or even Easter.  The back is blank to personalize it for whatever event I want to use it for.


I cut the white layer twice and on one of them I cut out just the fence.  I then embossed it with a Cuttlebug embossing folder and inked it a little with some Distress Ink.


The sentiment is from Jaded Blossom.  I added a twine tie at the top and also a twine bow.


The bunny and grass are both metal dies from Jaded Blossom.  I finished it off with some gem flowers.

Worm Birthday Wishes

I used the card feature from the "Wrap It Up" cartridge today to make this fun apple shaped card.


I made my card and cut the green portion twice.  I then trimmed off just the leaf to give me a second one.  I glued the center down and used a double layer of foam tape at both edges to pop it up.  The apple and the leaf are both inked with Distress Inks.


I decided to have a cute little worm coming out of the bite in the apple.  He is an svg from Lettering Delights.  I inked his lightest layer up with a light layer of Distress Ink.


The tag is a metal die from Jaded Blossom.  I stamped on a sentiment from Paper Smooches.  I wrapped the stem with some twine and used the same twine to tie a bow to put on my tag.  The bottom of the tag is adhered with foam tape for a little dimension.

Music to My Ears

I decided to use "Wrap It Up" again on today's project.  This time I made a gift card holder.





The gift card holder and its mats were made with Jaded Blossom dies.  I also used stamps from them for the gift card grid and all the sentiments.



The headphones are the cut I used from "Wrap It Up" and the music notes are from "Groovy Times."  I used twine to create a cord for the headphones.  I also added some glossy accents to the red parts of the headphones.

White Wedding

As I was looking through the images on the "Wrap It Up" Cricut cartridge yesterday, when I made the treat bag, I saw this bride image and wanted to make a wedding card using it.




The card is a z-fold card and is 5 1/2"x4 1/4."  I made the card base of white card stock and cut the heart patterned card stock 1/4" smaller for both the top and inner mats.



I used a die from Jaded Blossom to cut the rectangles for the sentiments.  The outer sentiment is from My Craft Spot.  The inner sentiment is from a wooden stamp I have had in my stash for years.


I added some Stickles to the veil and sequins to the bouquet.  I also used some stick-on pearls for the the necklace.  I finished it off with an enamel heart in the corner.

Spooky Treats

I ordered a bunch of stamps from Jaded Blossom and they arrived the other day.  I decided to use one of the stamp sets to make a project, so I made this Halloween treat bag. 



I thought this spider web patterned card stock was perfect for the bag.



The treat bag and the jack-o-lantern are both from the "Wrap It Up" Cricut cartridge.  I used foam tape to adhere the jack-o-lantern.  I also added crackle accents to the stem and glossy accents to the face.



The banner and tag are both cut with Jaded Blossom dies and stamped with Jaded Blossom stamps.  I added a twine bow and some sequins to finish it all off.  I used a double layer of foam tape in the middle of the banner for some dimension.
