Episode 106: Happy Easter!

First things first, I'll have the winner announced tomorrow for my giveaway.  Sorry I forgot to do it.  :)

Happy Monday crafters!  I hope you all had a wonderful weekend.  I did.  I saw Hunger Games and LOVED it.  So great.  :)  This week over at the Creative Critters Imaginations blog we are continuing the Easter theme.  The card I made is actually very simple but it is fun to make.  I even made a video (Finally!).  How I used my Imagine is w/ the Easter eggs.  I used cuts on the Easter 2010 cartridge, flood filled each layer from colors on the Baby Boutique Imagine cartridge.  I then layered the images and cut them out.  

I also did a fun technique using ribbon on the nest.  Enjoy!

Imagine DT Call & Thank You Card

Hi Crafters!  Before I share my project I wanted to announce a design team call that is happening over at the Creative Critterz Imaginations blog.  The main criteria is that you need an Imagine machine.  To see the details of what is involved and how to enter go HERE.  You have until next Wednesday to submit your project.

The project I wanted to share w/ you today I made w/ my Imagine.  This cut/design is from the Baby Boutique Imagine cartridge.  This is what the original image looked like:

I just used the center design for my card.  My cousin received his Eagle Scout and he wanted to send some thank you notes out to those that helped him.  This is what I created for him:

It's simple but he liked it.  If you have an Imagine please be sure to head on over to the Creative Critterz Imagination blog to try out for the design team.  :)

Teen Birthday Card

I first want to say Happy Birthday to the Imagine machine!  So glad you came into my life.  :)  So this last week at the Creative Critterz Imaginations blog we have been celebrating the Imagine's birthday by showing birthday projects made with the Imagine.  Even if you don't have the Imagine there are some great birthday ideas you can do w/ the regular Cricut.  There is a giveaway going on as well, a Fancy Frames Cricut cartridge.  Today is the last day to enter in the giveaway.  To be eligible leave a comment HERE and then for extra entries for the giveaway leave a comment on each post that went on this last week.

On to my project.  This card is for my niece who is turning 15 going on 25.  So I thought I should make something kind of funky and classy.  :)  I used the Black & White Imagine cartridge to make the Zebra print and the Polka Dot print.  That's what I love about this cartridge.  It only prints the black part so you can print it on any kind of paper, even paper w/ designs on it, to add that extra pop.  The monogram is from the Baby Boutique Imagine cartridge.

Remember to head on over to the Creative Critterz Imaginations blog to be eligible for the giveaway!
