#115 Gypsy Wanderings - Monster High Cake

Hi everyone! Here is the cake I made for my daughter's Monster High birthday party. I had such a great time making it - especially the zebra print!

The skulls were cut created with my Gypsy. I used the Gypsy Wanderings cartridge for the skull and Rock Princess for the eyes and bow.

The font for the letters was from Kate's ABCs.

Jenae had no Monster High dolls yet even though she has been asking for one for months - she always spends her allowance right away so she can't save enough :-) So I thought it would be nice if the first present and Monster High doll she got was on her cake. She had 9 friends at her party and 6 of them gave her a Monster High doll. So I guess that was what she asked them all for LOL

#60 Quarter Note - Practice Makes Perfect

Hi everyone! The challenge this week at the Cricut Circle Blog was to create a sketch and then a project following that sketch. Here is my sketch:

And my layout: For my layout I used mainly the Quarter Note cartridge.

"Practice Makes Perfect" - cut at 2 1/4"

Keyboard - cut at 1 1/4"

Music Note - cut at 1 3/4"

Top border - cut at 1 1/2"

The journaling spot is from Gypsy Wanderings and was cut at 2 3/4" with a 3" layer.

I covered some I-Top brads with coordinating patterned paper to go along the crochet trim.

Hope you like it!

Reindeer Mini

Hi everyone! I thought I would show you a quick accordian mini I made! The album was made using three 51/2" X 81/2" pieces of white paper which were folded in half and attached together to form an accordian. Then I decorated!

The cartridges I used are:

Create a Critter - reindeer and "JOY"

Gypsy Wanderings - Scalloped Rectangle

Before I adhered the rectangle on the back cover, I attached a piece of ribbon to use as the closure.

I am entering this mini in the challenge this week at Fantabulous Cricut. The task was to create a project using ribbon in some way and of course using our Cricut.

Hope you like it!

Baby Bottle Card

Hi everyone! Here is a card I just finished tonight - a baby girl card! For this card, I used my Gypsy to create a window with patterned vellum over top. The cartridges I used were Gypsy Wanderings for the baby bottle, Gypsy Font for the "baby girl!" George and Basic Shapes for the card outline (resized with G) and Ashlyn's Alphabet for the frame. I used the hide contour feature on the Gypsy to cut out the oval from the frame in the card and to just cut the scalloped part on the vellum.

I am entering my card in the challenge at Made By Momo. This week the theme was "Babies, and Diapers, and Onesies, Oh My!"

Hope you like it!

Sunshine Smiles

Hi everyone! Here is the card I created this evening with my Cricut. I used Doodletype for the sun and Gypsy Wanderings for the word "Smile". To give my sun a cute little face I used the Princess Face Assortment by Peachy Keen Stamps. I used some scalloped scissors to create the border on the yellow strip of paper. This card will be entered in two challenges this week:

Fantabulous Cricut - Create a project with the word "smile"

Bon Voyage card

Hi everyone! I made this card for the challenge this week over at the Cricut Cardz Challenge Blog - http://cricutcardzchallenge.blogspot.com/

The challenge was to create a vacation themed card. This was my entry. I used the Gypsy Wanderings for the boat, Give a Hoot for the waves and Cake Basics for the "Bon Voyage" sentiment. Hope you like it!

For You Owl Card

I created this card for a challenge over at the Cricut Cardz challenge blog.
The owl I used came from the Give a Hoot cartridge. The leaf border is from Lyrical Letters and I welded the two together on my Gypsy (which by the way is my new favorite toy - sooooo much fun!!!) The "For You" sentiment is from Gypsy Wanderings. One down side to the Gypsy is that once you prepare your mat and save it for later, if you have a bad memory like me, you have a hard time remembering which cartridges you used for each individual image.
I added some googly eyes after and think it made the owl look so much cuter - and I love cutesy! Hope you like my card!
Please take a look at my other creations and perhaps even follow my blog!
Have a great day!

Boxed note card set

Hi everyone! For this weeks Fantabulous Cricut challenge the task was to create a 3D project featuring the colour black. I chose to make this cute little set of three cards and a little box to put them in. The box was cut using Wild Card, the bicycle is from Stretch Your Imagination and the flowers and butterflies are from Gypsy Wanderings. The cards are all 3X3 in size. Another fun project!
