DING, DONG! The Witch is DEAD!!

Hello, friends;

Can we say that after looking at this cute candy box?

The Witch is GONE!!

 

The original idea for this project is this witch's cauldron that I made:

But I wanted it to look somehow different, so I added other elements, like the witch's shoes that I made using the Happy Hauntings cartridge from Cricut. The legs and the broom stick are Twizzlers Twists.

 

I'm so happy with the results that I want to share the tutorial for this project with you. So, if you are interested, feel free to click on the right language when downloading the tutorial:

Fall Background Scrapbook Page

Hello, friends;

I am very happy to share with you a free tutorial on how to create the background for this layout:

I used a combination of the AP and the new Artiste cartridges from CTMH. The background was created using a frame shape in one of the cartridges with four different cardstock colors.

 

To order CTMH, please click here!

 

Here I have more pictures of the layout:

This embellishment was created by making a bow out of burlap ribbon and making cuts along each bow side. The acorn is also from one of the cartridges.

 

The phrase is also cut using one of the cartridges...I like the outcome and hope you like it, too!

 

I have a tutorial available with details and exact measurements of each piece of CS and B&T used for this layout.

 

 

The tutorial is available in English and Spanish; to have access to the tutorial click on the correct language link.

Owl with AP

Hello, there;

I've been working in different projects at the same time;

busy, busy, busy!!

I made this cute owl using the AP cartridge and the 1-1/4" circle punch from CTMH.

Check it out:

The body was made using the pillow box from the AP; I press Fit to Page to cut it at the largest possible size. It was cut from Kraft CS and I distress the edges of the pillow box with Chocolate ink.

For the "feathers", I punch lots of circles using the 1-1/4" circle punch from the Flirty Paper Packet. I used two different BT [designs]. All you have to do is adhere the circles in rows and overlapping them a little on the front side of the pillow box.

For the eyes, I made two large rosettes from a 3/4" x 11" strip of black CS and two medium ones from a 1/2" x 11" strip of Chocolate CS. Adhere them with hot glue to the pillow box.

Adhere a 1/2" circle from orange Cs and a white button as pictured.  For the peak, I just cut a 1" square using the AP and then fold it in half diagonally.

To finish the pillow box, wrap around it Brown Striped GG Ribbon and add a tag from one of the Artiste Collection stamp set.

 

Hope you like this idea!

Until next time,

H2H "Water FUN" Challenge

Hello, there;

Summer is almost gone, but still we have time for another wonderful H2H Challenge.

This week you have to create anything related to a water theme...and if there is FUN with it, even better!!

My twins and I went to Savannah, Georgia at the beginning of JUNE. We went to Tybee Island and had such a wonderful time.

I took some pictures but didn't have time to work on them; so, this challenge was the perfect reason to create a scrapbook page from that time at the beach.

Recipe:

CS: CTMH

Stamp set: Just Chillin [FISHES are not CTMH]

Embellishments: Seaside Wooden Shapes

Waves: Life is a Beach Cricut Cartridge 

I wanted to make this a very special page for my daughter. I decided to use an amazing technique to simulate fishes in the ocean. I also used another technique to create the texture on the waves.  

Both of these techniques are shared in a tutorial that I have available to you in MediaFire.

I love this page! I had so much fun playing with all the elements I used to complete it and I want to invite you to play along with us @ H2H Challenge.

Enjoy!

Cool Way to used your SCRAPS!

Hello, friends;

I have a new tutorial on how to use those scraps of B&T that seems to never be gone!

Making this cutie is very easy, so here we go:

1. Adhere a 4" x 4" piece of B&T to a 4" x 4" square coaster.

2. Using a Round Corner punch, round each corner and distress with ink. Adhere the calendar to the bottom center of the coaster.

3. Make a flower from punches or using the Art Philosophy cartridge. Set aside to use later.

4. Tie a bow around the top of the square coaster as pictured; then adhere the flower with foam tape.

5. Adhere a 1-7/8" x 3-T1/4" piece of B&T to the black area of a binder clip; you can buy these in a box of 4 for $1.88 at Wal-Mart. To keep the coaster tight and in an upright position, tie a ribbon on the narrower area of a binder clip. Place the coaster between both clips and push the ribbon down to the wider area, this will keep the clip tigh enought to hold the calendar.



6. To make your button, punch five 1"circles from CS. Adhere them together and poke two holes as shown. Cover the top of the circles with Liquid Glass; let dry completely before using in your project. Once dried, thread Baker's Twine thru the holes and tie with a bow. You can always use real button, but this is a great option if you have a big group of people for a class.

DONE!!
