Blossom Cricut Imagine
Elegant Edges
Heritage
Card Base- White Bazzill card 10 x 5 inches
Scored @ 5 inches and folded.

I printed and cut the pattern from page 6 Blossom (handbook) @ 4.8 x 3. One for the front of the card and another for the inside (right). For the inside (left) pattern I used the flip horizontal feature before printing for a mirror image effect. The pink daisy scallop border on the centre front of the card I used Bazzill pink card and the punch I used is from Fiskars. To create the Cameo embellishment I used the color palette from the Blossom Imagine cartridge. To create the base I printed and cut the Shadow feature page 65 Elegant Edges (handbook) @ 3.2. I also printed and cut the Oblong feature @ 3.2 using the pattern on page 8 (handbook). These two cutouts were adhered together flat. The cameo page 65 Heritage (handbook) was printed and cut @ 2.5. These two cutouts were also adhered together flat. I used pop dots to adhere the cameo onto the scallop base. I edged the frame of the cameo with Stickles Icicle and for the silhouette I coated it with Dimensional Magic. The complete cameo embellishment was adhered to the card with pop dots. The bow was tied to the strip of ribbon along the scallop border. To hold the tails of the bow in place I used Pritt Gel glue. To finish off the card I stamped Happy Birthday (Crafty Bitz) using Memento Rich Cocoa. For the inside of the card I created a journal block using the shadow and oblong feature from page 65 Elegant Edges (handbook). Shadow was printed and cut @ 3.3 the pink scallop was printed and cut @ 3.2. I used Color Box Creamy brown to edge the pattern card and the scallop cuts.

Cricut Imagine Buccaneer

Easel Card

For the base of the Easel card I cut a piece of black card 12 x 6. I scored the card at 6" and 9". I cut a piece of black card 6 x 6 for the front of the card. I printed a full sheet of the red stripe card pattern page 35 (handbook). This was cut at 5 7/8 inch square and adhered on to the inside base of the card.

The pirate page 6 (handbook) was printed and cut using the layer feature @ 4.5. The wheel page 17 (handbook) was printed and cut using the layer feature @ 2.5. The keg/barrel page 20 (handbook) was printed and cut using the layer feature @ 1.8. The treasure chest page page 18 (handbook) was printed and cut using the layer feature @ 2. The wooden planks page 26 (handbook) was printed and cut @ 3.3. The bottles page 33 (handbook) was printed and cut @ 1.3. Shivers me Timbers page 24 (handbook) was printed and cut @ 1.3. Happy Birthday Matey was printed and cut @ 2.5 page 25 (handbook).

To assemble the card a wooden plank was adhered flat on the front of the card. The wooden plank on the inside of the card was adhered using pop dots. Happy Birthday Matey and the bottle on the inside of the card was also adhered using pop dots. The wheel was assemble using pop dots for the layers. The assembled wheel was adhered flat on the card. The pirate was assembled using pop dots for the layers. The assembled pirate was adhered to the card using pop dots except for his hand behind the treasure chest it was glued flat on to the wooden plank. The treasure chest was assembled using pop dots. It was adhered to the card using pop dots. For the keg/barrel the layers were glued flat. I cut off the burning wick and adhered the skull. The skull is from the pirate flag page 21 (handbook). For the bottle near the treasure chest I adhered it flat onto the card the other bottle was adhered using pop dots.

Elegant Edges & Country Life

Cricut Imagine

To make this card I used the project on page 9 (handbook) Elegant Edges but I made each cut smaller so they would fit onto a card. Base card- Bazzill Purple card 5 3/8 x 5 3/8. I used Epson PremierArt 12 x 12 Scrapbook Photo paper for the Imagine print and cuts. Using the Imagine I used RGB: 176 153 201 Frosted Amethyst to print and cut the Loops mat @ 5 page 35 Elegant Edges (hand book) and the smaller shadow mat printed and cut @ 3. The white shadow mat was cut @ 3.5. The pitcher was printed and cut twice @ 3 page 60 Country Life (handbook) using the same RGB code. I also printed a green pitcher for the flower stems. I printed Layer 1 & Layer 2 twice. Once using an off white colour and once using the Frosted Amethyst RGB code. The shadow was cut using white card. To assemble the jug I adhered the green pitcher onto the white shadow. Then I adhered one of the Frosted Amethyst pitcher onto the green pitcher. I adhered the off white flower on top of the green flower and finally adhered the Frosted Amethyst flowers on top. Faux chipboard effect. I added a clear Kaisercraft Rhinestones to the centre of each flower. For the pitcher on top I wrapped a small piece of raffia around adhered on the off white pieces from Layer 1 & 2 then adhered it on top using pop dots. I also used pop dots to adhere the assembled pitcher onto the card. The bow was adhered to the card using Pritt Gel glue. To finish off the card I printed and cut a square @ 5 using the Frosted Amethyst RGB with the imagine. Then I created a sentiment using Print Shop 22. The sentiment reads Wishing you a very Happy Birthday. I printed the sentiment onto the Frosted Amethyst square using my printer. This was adhered to the inside of the card.

Make A Wish

Birthday Card

To make this card I used the Cricut Imagine, Imagine Yummy cartridge, Birthday Bash and "Just Because" Cards.

"Just Because" Cards

From this cartridge I cut the card base and the scallop mat page 45 (handbook)

"Birthday Bash"

From this cartridge I cut the bird & balloon and the number three.

"Yummy"

From this cartridge I cut the birthday cake, the title "Make A Wish" as well as the pattern papers for on top of the base card, scallop mat. The pattern I used on top of the base card is the pink pattern on page 40 (handbook). The pattern for the top of the scallop mat is the first print on page 35 (handbook). The Color Palette from this cartridge was used for the base of the card, the scallop mat, the number three and for the bird.

The title "Make A Wish" was printed and cut @ 1 using the layer feature. I used pop dots to assemble this cut. Pop dots were used to adhere this cut onto the card. The number 3 was printed and cut @ 1.5 and was adhered flat onto the card. The bird was printed and cut @ 1.5. The pieces for the bird was adhered flat. I used pop dots under the bird and balloon to adhere it to the card. The cake was printed and cut @ 3 using the layer feature. I put the top of the cake/icing through the cuttlebug using the Swiss dots folder. I used pop dots to adhere this cut onto the cake. Pop dots were also used to adhere the candles except for the base of the candles which were adhered flat on top of the cake. All the other cuts were adhered flat to assemble the cake. The cake was adhered flat on the card. To finish off the card I rounded the corners. For the inside of the card I printed a sentiment using Print Shop 22 and printing it on the same pattern that was used on the card base.

Mix and Match

using the Cricut Imagine

To make these Easter baskets I used Mymemories Scrapbook paper. This paper I purchased at Riot Arts and Crafts and is double sided with an adorable Easter theme print . I used the cut only feature on the Cricut Imagine to cut out the basket. This basket cut can be folded either way to whatever print you want inside or on the outside as shown in the photos posted above.

I used the print and cut feature on the Cricut Imagine to make the chicks and eggs. I used the Cricut Imagine Blossom cartridge and used the same cuts, color and size for the chicks and bow as mentioned in my previous post. For the eggs I selected four different coloured patterns from the Blossom cartridge to match the colours on the baskets ( blue, pink, yellow and green). I inked around the edges of the eggs with Vera Color 34 Orchid (pink egg), 187 Sage (green egg), 11 Canary (yellow egg) and 38 Sky Blue ( blue egg). As I will be giving these to young children I used a spot of Kindy Giltz on the chicks bow instead of a rhinestone. I also made a different handle for the basket. I used the end of the handle that had cut out with the basket as a template. I traced the end shape of that handle onto the ends of the handles that I wanted to use because there is a slit on the side of the basket where the end of the handle slips into. After I had traced the end shape I used scissors to cut the shape out. The making and the finishing touches for the basket are the same as in my previous post.
