My Sheri Crafts - Last Day to Wear White

Welcome  to Glenda's Cards

Are you ready for another fun challenge at My Sheri Cards! With Labor Day traditionally being the last day to wear white, our design team sister Sarah challenges us to use White on White. Of course this can be a card or any project as long as it is white on white.

My card measures 5" x 6 1/2 " cut from Colorbox white paper. Would you believe that I did not use any Cricut cuts on this card!

Cuttlebug -  Madison folder. This is a 5x7 folder that I found on clearance at Hobby Lobby recently. I embossed a piece of white paper and layered it on the card front.

Cheery Lynn - French Pastry Doily Die was used for the scallop mat.

Martha Stewart - Lace Scallop Heart. I punched out three hearts to give it dimension--no room to use a pop-dot.

Recollections - White pearls  and 3 Girls Jam Crinkle Ribbon.

That is my white on white card. I am pleased with the looks of the card. I did not add a sentiment on the front of the card, but I am thinking it will be a needed anniversary card.

Be sure to stop by My Sheri Crafts and see all the beautiful projects by the design team and our guest designer. For more details on our projects, please visit the individual blogs. We appreciate your comments!

Now it is your turn to make a white on white card or project and enter the challenge. Several Ooh La La awards will be given and one person will be chosen to be our next guest designer!

BBTB2 - Back to School

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

It is time again for another fun and inspirational Cricut challenge at BBTB2! Our talented design team member Brenda is the hostess for our Back to School challenge. You can use any Cricut cartridge for your card, layout, or project, as long as it is about going back to school! We ask that you mention the name of the Cricut cartridges used for your project in your blog post.

For my project, I decided to do a scrapbook page. Earlier in the year, I received a DCWV Assorted Open Stock paper pack entitled School Days. This page is Foil Learning Tree from that pack. I thought Cricut cuts would accent the cute apple tree and the letters around it which are printed on the designer paper. It is not very noticeable in the photo, but the apples are a red foil paper.

Cricut Cartridges:

Wrap it Up- Page 27  School house card is cut 6.50". While cutting some school house images for an earlier posted project, I cut two cards giving me the extra card for this project.

Nate's ABC's - Page 22 Bus cut 1.50". Page 68 Pencil cut 2.5". Page 49 - Grass is cut 2". The letters A, B, C and numbers 1, 2, 3 are cut at 1".

Celebrate with Flourish - Back to School is cut 2".

Photo of the inside of the card! I will add a photo of my grandson who started the second grade and the journalling later. I do not have the photo yet.

Other supplies: The Paper Studio ribbon...looks like it need ironing!

Transparent photo corners are used on the back part of the schoolhouse card. I did not glue it down on the page. 

Versa Magic Gingerbread inking.

BBTB2 - Vacation

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

It is time for another fun challenge at BBTB2! Our talented Carole is hostess for this challenge and she chose Vacation. Use any Cricut cartridge to feature a vacation/holiday. Starting today with this challenge, each challenge will run for only one week.

I have not taken a vacation yet this year, but I wanted to play along with my newest Cricut cartridge. Recently Michael's had Cricut cartridges on sale and my nearest store had only one of the Wild Card 2 cartridges. I spent a Christmas gift card for the purchase. Would you believe that I have held a gift card that long!

Cricut Cartridge:

Wild Card 2 - Page 54 - Camper is cut 4.25" using the card feature and shadow. Main cuts and the layer feature were also cut at the same size. Using papers from my scrap stash, the plaid makes a fun little camper.

For the inside of the card, I used Phrase and Phrase layer features cut at 2". Home Is Where You Are! 

Cuttlebug: Distressed Stripes

Other supplies include Versa Magic gingerbread inking, white Gelly Roll pen and gold stickles.

Working in the Cricut Craft Room, I was unable to hide the cut marks for the fold lines. These are simple folds and really do not need a cut mark. Maybe CCR can work this out soon.

Visit BBTB2 to see all the fun and creative projects by the design team. For more information about a project, visit the individual blogs!  We love your visits and comments!

Now it is your turn to play along with us! Remember this is a Cricut challenge and the theme image must be cut with the Cricut. Please mention in your blogpost which cartridge you used. 

Just a reminder - You have a week left to enter our elephant challenge if you have not done so!

We look forward to see what you create!

My Sheri Crafts - Ch. 92 Back to School

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

Where did summer go? Time for school days already!

Challenge 92 theme this week at My Sheri Crafts is "Back to School"! Our talented design team sister Raquel asked us to create any project related to a school theme.

Cricut Cartridges:

Wrap It Up - This cartridge has great creative features including a card, box, and tag. I used the card and box features.

Page 27 - Card feature is cut 6 .50". The card feature on shift does not include layering so I used the main school images and layer features to achieve my look.

Page 27- Box is cut at 11". Working in the Cricut Craft Room, I also used the main keys and layering keys to finish the box. It is a cute little treat box or maybe container for small school supplies such as paper clips or colors.

The phrase on  the school house page is School's Out so that would not work!

3 Birds on Parade

Page 60 - Phrase "School days". I did not record the size.

Other supplies include pop dots for the phrase, inking, and white Gelly roll pen.

Visit My Sheri Crafts to see all the fun and creative projects by the design team and our guest designer for the week. For more information on the projects, please visit our individual blogs. We do appreciate your visits and comments on our blogs!

BBTB2 - Elephantly Speaking

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

Hope you had a great weekend! Are you ready for another fun Cricut challenge at BBTB2! Our talented design team sister Shelly chose Elephantly Speaking- use an elephant from any cartridge on your card, layout or project.

My card measures 5" x 6 1/2" white cardstock. The birthday paper is The Paper Studio Birthday Extravaganza Paper pad. All the papers were in my scrap stack.

Cricut cartridge:

Celebrate With Flourish - I really like the cuts on this cartridge! The elephant is wearing a cute party hat and I thought the cut would be good for a birthday card.  Elephant is cut 3.5".

Of course, I needed a balloon! The balloon is cut at 2.5" and is wrapped under the tail of the elephant.

Other supplies:

3 Girl Jam ribbon,  pop-dots on the elephant and balloon, and a little wiggle eye.

Be sure to visit BBTB2 and check out all the cute and inspiring elephant projects by the design team. For more information on the projects, visit the individual blogs. We appreciate your visits and comments!

Now it is your turn to play along with us! Remember this is a Cricut challenge and you must use an elephant cut on your project. Please mention in your blogpost which cartridge was used.

Just a reminder, you still have a week to play along with our "Fly Away" challlenge. You must use a hot air balloon or an airplane if you do not have a hot air balloon cut.
