Erica's Craft Room 100 Cartridge Blog Hop - Day Two

Welcome to Erica's Craft Room

100 Cricut Cartridge Blog Hop

You should have come here from Laura's blog. If not, you will want to start at the beginning with Erica at Http://MyCricutcraftroom.blogspot.com

For today's hop in my continuing effort to create more layouts, I have created this one using four different cartridges. Isn't my granddaughter just so adorable in her tap outfit for her recital? They performed a dance for Little Bunny Foo Foo. Now she is also in ballet and I can't wait to see this year's recital that will happen in May.

Here is the recipe I used to create this layout:

Twinkle Toes - little girl Image #2 cut at four inches. I used my Gypsy's hide contour feature to hide the face. I also cut her hair down on the top. She had a huge amount of hair! I used the extra parts cut off to make her hair longer in the back to mirror Taylor's hair. I also used a marker to add dimension to the hair. I added detailing to her dress with my white Signo Uniball pen and added a ribbon so the little paper doll matches Taylor's outfit. The face is a Peachy Keen Wide Eyed Kids stamp. I colored in her eyes with the white pen and added chalk to her cheeks.

American Alphabet - I cut the rabbit at 3.50: and then cut his ears off to make the bunny ears for the little paper doll. I cut this twice - in pink and in white and pieced them together until I got the desired result.

Shall We Dance - The word "Dance" and its shadow cut at 1.25
The word "Recital" and its shadow cut at 1.50

Love You A Latte - Pink layer cut at 7.25 x 4
Green layer cut at 7.50 x 4
Again, I used my Gypsy to alter the shape on cut #7. It originally was more squared and I stretched it so my words would fit. I also hid the cupcake.

You can click on the photos to make them larger to see all the details

For this month, I also am still trying to finish my advent calendar so it will be all ready for next Christmas. I know many of you asked me to show pictures of the rest of the pages. I am still working on getting pages 19 - 25 done. Here are photos of pages 13 - 18. I will post the rest as soon as I get time to finish it.

December 100 Cartridge Blog Hop Day Two

Good morning and welcome to Day 2 of the Erica's Craft Room 100 Cartridge Blog Hop. If you arrived at my blog from Rosa, then you are on the right track. If you just came to visit me, please start at the beginning with Erica's Craft Room so you dont miss all the wonderful things in day 2 of our hop. The line up with the web links is listed below.

I have been working every night to finish this advent calendar and I have two confessions to make. First and most importantly is that I borrowed this idea from Creations by Christina. I saw this last year and knew I wanted to make one. I even cut the page shapes out last year and ran out of time to make it. Second, with working and home responsibilities, I did not get it finished. I am up to page 12 and hope I get it done this week so I can display it. Get ready for a lot of photos and at the end, I will list which cartridges I used.










1 Poinsettia - Celebrate with Flourish
2 Reindeer - Jolly Holiday
3 Ornament - Winter Frolic
4 Elf - Jolly Holidays
5 Seasons Greetings - Winter Wonderland
6 Snowman - Speaking of Winter
7 Penguin - Simply Charmed
8 Wreath - Jolly Holidays
9 North Pole - Jolly Holidays
10 Gingerbread - Stretch Your Imagination
11 Christmas Wishes - Winter Frolic
12 Ribbons and Rosettes

All of the numbers came from Winter Woodland and the scalloped circles are from Mini Monograms. Your next stop is the fabulous Enjoli http://Mississippihippycrafts.blogspot.com/. If you get lost along the way, here is the entire line up:

Oh and before you go, I will be offering some blog candy which will include a white Signo Uniball pen that I use absolutely all the time! They are wonderful for all those little highlights I add to many of my projects! Please leave a comment and a way to reach me and I would love for you to follow too!!

Birthday Card - Billionaire

This card was made for my brother's birthday. I cut the car at 2 inches from the Billionaire cartridge. The scalloped circle behind it was cut at 3 1/2 inches from Mini Monograms. The banner with the stamped sentiment is from Winter Frolic. I used my Gypsy and changed the size to fit my card. It was 1.50 inches in height and 4 in width ( I think...I forgot to write it down!)
