My First Boo

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

Play time with the Cricut machine and I have a finished  card. Card measures 4 1/4" wide x 5 1/2" high cut from purple Recollections cardstock. Patterned paper is DCVW Four Seasons. Other papers are Recollections.

Looking at PageMaps, I was inspired to try the October 2018 Vertical CardMap.

Cricut Cartridges:

Paper Pups - Rectangle card is cut 8.5" wide x 5.5" high.

Insert Shapes - Green rectangle is cut 4" wide x 5". Purple Circles are cut 2.958". I offset the circles to show a bit of the lighter purple paper.

Bits & Pieces - Banner - Patterned paper is cut 2.25" wide x 4.806" high. Orange paper is cut 1.898" wide x 3.833" high.

Trick or Treat Bags - "My 1st Boo" image set is cut 2.014" wide x 2.375" high. It is placed on the purple circle. The two purple circles are pop-dotted on the card.

Ice Cream Sundae Cascade Card

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

I have had little time to craft lately. I am happy to finish this card that I am sharing with a few challenges!

Papers are Recollections--Most of it is from the scrap stash.

 

Cricut Cartridges:

 

Crazy Cool Cards -  This formally Cricut Circle cartridge was recently added to Cricut Design Space. I never was subscribed to that feature, so I am happy to see it now available in Design Space. If you are subscribed to Cricut Design Space, be sure to check out all the recently added Cricut cartridges.

Ice Cream Sundae Cascade Card is cut 13.796" wide x 7.429" high. The size includes the envelope. The handbook is not available on the cartridge handbook webpage. The cut size that I used makes a 5" high card...pretty skinny though, about 3" wide. 

Using Cricut Shape feature, I cut a 1.75" square from the white cardstock. I attached a sentiment to be printed on the square. A second square without the sentiment was cut.

Thoughts & Phrases - Happy Birthday is written with the Cricut Bluebonnet pen. 

I placed a 3/8" x 3.75" strip of white cardstock between the two squares and glued it together. This is placed in the section behind the sundae.

Cuttlebug Folders:

Swiss Dots - Strawberry ice cream. Divine Swirls on the Chocolate ice cream for some dimension.

This is my first try with the cartridge. Hope it is made correctly! Looks ok to me!

Welcome Fall

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

I enjoy making Fall themed cards and I have another card to share with you! Card measures 6 1/2" wide x 5" high cut from Recollections Spice Market paper pack. Patterned paper is DCWV Four Seasons and other papers are from scrap stash!

Cricut Cartridges:

Creative Cards - Rectangle card is cut 6.5" wide x 10" high.

Basic Shapes - I used the square to cut the larger rectangle at 6" wide x 4.5" high from the floral paper. Smaller rectangle is cut 5.5" wide x 4" high from the blue paper. The strip is cut 6.5" wide x .5" high from the stripe paper.

Talk Turkey to Me - Welcome Fall saying is cut 4.545" wide x 3.35" high. This includes the words, acorn, leaves, and a pumpkin. I did not use the pumpkin that is with this image because I wanted a pumpkin with a shadow image. I count extra of the shorter leaves. This cartridge is now available free in Cricut Access, whereas it was a cartridge to buy. I am happy to see all the new cartridges that have been made available lately to Access! 
Thanksgiving Table Decor - Pie Box. I cut only the pumpkin image. Two pumpkins are cut 1.25" wide x 1.15" high and the smaller pumpkin is cut 1" wide x .92" high. 

Pumpkins in corner are pop-dotted on the card.

I love the way this saying turned out on the card! I hope to use the saying on a shirt also.

Hope you enjoy! Thanks for your visits and comments!

Pumpkin Treat Box

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

I am still playing with Fall images on my Cricut Explore. Thought I would share this cute little treat box!

Dreaming Tree - Pumpkin Treat box is a free file. Thanks Dreaming Tree for the fun treat box! I cut the box from orange cardstock and the pumpkin from a golden/orange cardstock. The greens are from Cricut cardstock.

Kim Byers - Pie! Oh My! - "For You to Gobble Gobble later" tag is cut 2.473" wide x 3.75" high.

This is a print and cut image that was available free for last week. Glad I found a use for the image!

Cuttlebug:

Divine Swirls folder is used on each of the three pumpkin pieces. The top two pieces are pop-dotted on base of pumpkin.

Polka Dots folder - leaf

Layers of the pumpkin are inked on the edges for a bit of dimension. 

I am pleased with the treat box. Of course, it may just stay in my crafting area since I added some yummy candies!
