A Quilted Christmas - Snow Girl

 Welcome to Glenda's Cards

Happy Thanksgiving!
You may wonder why you are seeing a Christmas card. Lately I have had little time to craft and with Thanksgiving fast approaching, I decided to work on Christmas cards as time permits.

Today I am sharing another cute image on Cricut A Quilted Christmas! Card measures 5" x 6 1/2" cut from Recollection purple cardstock. All other papers are from the scrap stash.

Cricut Cartridge:

A Quilted Christmas - Page 37 Snow Girl is cut at 5" using the main images, Layer 1, and Layer 2 images. Of course, I had to make this a little Red Hat snow lady using the red and purple color theme!

Cuttlebug: Dots used on the red patterned mat.

Martha Stewart: Used the cut out snowflakes from Aspen Snowflakes edge punch.

Corner rounder used on the card and layers. Feather and rhinestone from stash.

A Quilted Christmas - Chimney

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

Recently I purchased Cricut A Quilted Christmas cartridge and finally found a little time to play with it. This cartridge has some wonderful images on it - hard to choose which image to start with- but I chose the first image on the overlay. Love Santa coming down the chimney! 

Visiting Card Creations By Lorraine, I noticed that Lorraine had an excellent video on how to make a shaped card using this chimney image. She is so talented and inspiring! I wanted to give this shaped card a try! Thanks so much Lorraine for sharing your lovely creations and videos with us!

This image is on page 29 in the handbook and I cut the images at 5" using Cricut Craft Room. The chimney on shift has some very tiny little berries which did not cut well so I used Stickles for some random berries. On layer 1 shift, I used Hide Contour in the CCR to be able to cut the holly in green and the boots in gray. Layer 2 shift shows small cut pieces that may go on the candle flame, but again this is so tiny. Using the hide contour feature I cut only the white for Santa"s waistline. Gold Stickles were used on the candles.

Other supplies include the Martha Stewart punch for the fern greenery. Thanks Lorraine for reminding me that I had the punch! The Poinsettia flower is Making Memories that has been in my stash for several years. 

I had so much fun making this shaped card and like the results! Thanks again Lorraine for the inspiration! Now I may be able to make more shaped cards without the use of the Gyspy, Design Studio or CCR.

Now head on over to Card Creations By Lorraine and check out Lorraine's amazing talent! I am sure you will be inspired!

New Arrival

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

Today I am sharing a quick card made for a baby shower. It's a Girl! 

The card is cut from white cardstock using Cricut Wild Card. The card image is on page 76 and cut at 6". Designer papers are from the Paper Studio Sweet Pea pack.

The phrase "new arrival" is cut at 7".

I added a crinkle ribbon bow and a little doodling with a Gelly Roll pen.  

Simple card, but I hope the mom to be enjoys it!

Thanks for stopping by!

BBTB2 - Witch

Welcome to Glenda's Cards

It is time for another inspirational Cricut challenge at BBTB2! Our talented design team sister Susan wants us to use a witch. This can be any witch from any Cricut cartridge to create a Halloween project. I chose to do a small wreath for my Red Hat friend. The little witch heard about the party and dressed up for the occasion! The wreath is a 9" Willow Wreath that was purchased for one dollar.

Cricut cartridge is Wrap It Up! The witch image is on page 69 and is cut at 10" using Recollection papers.

Using a 2 1/2" wired ribbon that actually is a Christmas ribbon bought last year, I wrapped the willow wreath and made the bow. To add a bit more detail to the witch and broom, I added Silver Stickles which goes with the silver glittered edge of the ribbon. The witch is attached by using pop-dots. 

Simple project but a cute decoration for the party!

My second project uses the witch image but this time it is the box cut. I cut the box at 5". Of course, again I used the red and purple theme. Purple tissue and red/purple curly ribbon accent the little bag. I added a piece of a Cricut packaging behind the witch cut out. Using purple paper in the bag, I just added a piece of white tissue behind the plastic. A cute little treat bag for my Red Hat friends!

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

Now it is your turn to show us your witch! Remember this is a Cricut challenge and the witch must be cut from a Cricut cartridge. One person will be chosen to receive the Project of the Week award.

Challenge:
Papercraft Star - Ch 118 Witches
Decorate to Celebrate - Ch 36 - Party decoration for a Halloween party
Die Cuttin Divas - Ch 88 Shimmer, Glimmer, and Gloss (entering the wreath)
