Stocking Christmas Card

Stocking Christmas Card 

I made another Christmas Card from the Cricut/Anna Griffin Christmas Kitsch cartridge. For the top of the stocking and toe of the stocking I did the print then cut with the Cricut Explore and Cricut Design Space. The label on the envelope is Anna Griffin Totally Tags Christmas edition.

Snowman Christmas Card

Snowman Christmas Card

I am getting my Christmas cards made. I am really enjoying the print then cut feature in Cricut Design Space. It is so much faster to make a card by printing then cutting the images.

The Cricut Cartridge Christmas Kitsch. The card size is 4-1/4 x 5-1/2

Repurposed Entertainment Center

I turned my entertainment center into craft storage.
I found cube storage that would fit in the opening.
I happened to have 2 of the pieces. I just needed to find the vertical shelves.
Then I started to organize my craft supplies into the unit.
I am really impressed how easily you can repurpose old furniture.

Happy Crafting!!

Ikea Raskog Cart Storage

I finished decking out my Ikea Raskog Cart.  I added some Mainstay baskets from Walmart.
I also added mesh drawer organizers for Ribbon, Washi Tape and wood stamps.
The baskets are removable and can be changed out according to what your working on.
I got the baskets in the front and on the sides at Walmart. The baskets were over by the kitchen supplies at the Walmart here. I had to put the hooks in the baskets and foam behind the basket so it sat up straighter.

I took the white part off these hooks.

I used them to hang the baskets for the washi tape and ribbon

 

 

This is the label for the baskets I used on the side of my cart.

4th of July Banner

4th Of July Banner Happy 4th of July everyone!!  Hope everyone has a fun and safe holiday! I've been working on this banner and finished it just in time for the 4th Of July!

Instructions: Cut a piece of paper 5" wide and 11" long.

Score the paper every 1-3/8"

Fold the paper so the 2 ends are facing up. 

The 3 center pieces will be folded up. So you will have 3 peaks and 4 valleys. 

Staple the flower in the middle. 

Then Cut an angle on each end of the paper. 

Lay the paper with the 3 peaks facing away from you then cut the angles. 

This is how it will look from the top view. 

Bring the 2 end pieces together and glue to form a half flower. 

Bring the other 2 ends together and glue to form the full flower.

The stars were cut with Cricut Design Space.

The star is cut from Cricut fonts and Basic Shapes cartridge.

They were cut 2" wide by 1.9" high.

I used the star shadow to decorate the banner.
