Cricut Cake

This is my first attempt to use the cricut cake machine.  I used Wilton fondant.
The Wilton fondant works great on the cricut machine, but is way to dry for the cake itself.
There is always a learning curve when doing something new.
When cutting the butterflies always make lots of them because they are delicate and will break easy.
You can't see the ribbon too well, but I used my gyspy and welded it together.
I  was making this cake for cricut club to show how the machine works.

Easter Treats

I have used this box many times for my grandson's class.  I just re-invent it for the different season's.
I used a 80 cent punch to punch the flowers out of a pop can.  Pop can metal is really thin.
Used the cricut cartridge to cut the eggs, bunny and grass.
I used embossing folders for all the eggs..
Hope you enjoy it.

Mojo Monday 185



I love this layout.  I am going to use this card in the April exchange at Craft Warehouse.  The picture doesn't do it justice.  On the inside of the card reads "I'm hoppin' you have a Happy Easter".  Just a play
on words there. LOL  I do wish everybody a Happy Easter.

Craft Wharehouse Challenge - April

As you know, you have to use all the papers that Craft Wharehouse
gives you in the Challenge.  Well all the papers are in the candy jar and the lid. 
 I didn't like any of the papers on their own.
I have a clear plastic over the gummy candies. 
Some of the gummy's are glued to the plastic,
and some are glued to the background.
Popped it up to give it 3D look.
It looks so much better in real life. 
I used Cricut cartridge
"Just Because Cards"

Using What You Have-CCCC Challenge #11

I got my inspiration from a Tag we did at Craft Warehouse.
  They used Sizzx Bigz Die "Sewing Room".
 Changing it from a tag to a card.
 I used Forever Young and Tags,Bags Boxes and More for mine.  
Using Making Memories brad buttons on the body part. 
 The yarn was from the dollar store. 
Took it apart and just used the eye lash part of it.


I try to use what I have .  Sometimes it comes out alot better than
 your inspiration did. The tag that I made at Craft Warehouse I gave to
 my granddaughter.  I put a greeting on the
back of the tag.  It came out really cute.
