May 100 Cricut Cartridge Blog Hop

Welcome to May's 100 Cricut Cartridge Blog Hop!  As always, there isn't 100 blogs to visit, but we do showcase 100 different cartridges overall.


You should have arrived from Kathy Jo's blog.  Want to start from the beginning, click here.




My three cartridges are:  Nifty Fifties, Campin Critters and Jolly Holidays.

I used Nifty Fifties to make the sewing machine, cut at 2.06 inches.  The mats were made using nestabilities. The sentiment is from Some Odd Girl.  

Campin Critters has so many adorable images!  It's hard to pick one to showcase.  I landed on the porcupine, it's too cute.  I cut the image at 2.76 inches.  The camp fire is from Create a Critter and is cut at 1.47 inches.  I used the gypsy to hide the facial features.  I inked my marshmallow to give it that heated look!  =)

Jolly Holidays has become one of my favorite cartridges to make Christmas cards with.  I cut my snowman at 4.41 inches.  The face is a Peachy Keen Stamp--snowmany faces.  I used a gel pen on his nose and pastel chalks on his cheeks.  The sentiment is from Hero Arts.

Up next is Erica's Project.  

If you get lost along the way, here's the complete blog hop list.

My Cricut Craft Room- Letter E

It's Letter "E" day at My Cricut Craft Room. Our projects need to start with an "E" in some form.

My project is an "E"lf card!

I'm LOVING my Elf card!  It's the first time I've made this little guy and I adore him.  He is from the Jolly Holidays Cricut Cartridge.  I used my gypsy to design this card.  The Elf is cut at 4.5 inches.  I hid the face contours and used Peachy Keen Wide Eyed Kid faces for the face.  I colored in the white of his eyes with a gel pen.  I also used my copic E00 skin white marker to color in his face and hands.  My card is 6x6 in size.  I used a border punch along the bottom of my strip of green pattern paper.  The sentiment is from Some Odd Girl Christmas stamp set.

Be sure to check My Cricut Craft Room blog for more samples of today's project.

Have an awesome day!

Don't forget to stop by Erica's blog to see 24 more projects today....

and every day in December.

Here is my project....

I made a 5.5x5.5 card using American Crafts green cardstock.  I matted striped pattern paper with black cardstock, and a strip of 1.5 inch pattern paper with a 2 inch black strip.  I made my ornament using Jolly Holidays cricut cartridge.  I cut the ornament at 4 inches.  The dark red piece was then sent through the cuttlebug to emboss with small dots.  The green piece was also sent through the cuttlebug with a plaid embossing folder.

Here's a closer look at the ornament:

It's a very clean and simple Christmas card!  Have an awesome day and thanks for looking.
