Patriotic Pages

Good evening everyone..  Sorry this is late today, I forgot to post it..

Today is Patriotic...  so I started working on our Philadelphia pages...

I started by using the Independence Day Cartridge and I cut <freedom> at 2 3/4 inches....   I then inked the body of the word, then I outlined the whole word, and I saved the stars from the hat and the I placed them on the word...

Next, I cut out the Red, White, and Blue from the Independence Day Cartridge at 3 1/2 inches...  I cut it out in red cardstock and then I inked the "Blue" with blue ink...

And finally, I cut the (uncle sam) Hat from the Cricut Sampler Cartridge at 4 inches...

I also used a black marker to outline the mark on the hat to show the details...

The Proud sticker and twine is from Erica's Craft Room, she gave this to me when I visited her store this past weekend.  Thank you very Erica...


 Please remember to visit the other blogs ...

Hope you enjoyed my project...

Thursday July 4th Project

Hello everyone..   Today's project is for July 4th with Erica's Craft Room.

   I decided to make a great card..  Here are the directions..

I used the Cricut Sampler Cartridge, the one with 5 overlays to make this card...

First I cut out the firework at 2 1/2 inches...  Shadow in red and regular cut in blue...  the I used silver stickles to make it sparkle...  on the shadow section I used a little x-mas red..

Second, I cut the 4 of July in the opposite colors than the firework...  and here I used crystal stickles on it this part...

Here is the finished card...  Hope you like it...

Hubbie and I at the Liberty Bell in Philadelphia for Memorial Weekend...  More great pictures to come..

Thanks for looking...  Pattie

June BlogHop...

Today is the June blog hop with Erica's Craft Room....  

We each choose 3 Cartridges to make our projects..

And I chose George and Basic Shapes, Paisley and Creative Memories Stork Delivery..

You should have come from Janet's Blog if not please start at the beginning at http://mycricutraftroom.blogspot.com 

The first is George and Basic Shapes..  I choose the flower shadow feature and these were cut at 4 inches each

I know that they are simple but with different papers they look great..   I used them for invitations to our Women's Ministry Mother's Day Program.

then I cut the circle out with my Creative Memories circle cutter so that I could cut out the words that I typed.

Next,  I chose the Paisley Cartridge for my next project..

For this card, I cut out the <frog2> at 3 1/2 inches and all layers..    Then I cut out "totally" from the same cartridge at 1 1/2 inches and I hid the "tot" behind the from so that you get "toadally" LOL

Then I cut out Love ya from Paisley too...  and it was cut out at 1 1/2 inches too...   then I traced around them with a black marker.  

I Stickled the heart on the frog too..   Don't you just love that face?   

and Finally, I used Creative Memories Stork Delivery for this project...   My sister had a baby shower and wanted to do a book for him so I cut out everything and we put the book together.. 

Here are a few of the pages... 

This the Boy font on the cartridge.. and they were cut at 2 inches ...    Jarron Craig Kendo will be his name.

The ducks were cut at 4, 3, and 2 1/2 inches ... and the Bath Time was cut at 1 inch...

The blue onies was cut at 3 1/2 and the safety pin was cut at the same size.. The diaper was cut at 2 1/2 inches...

Hope you enjoyed my projects...

Stickles Project for May 23

Good Morning everyone,,  here is my project using Stickles for Erica's Craft Room design team.
I hope that you enjoy it...

I used the Paisley Cartridge for my project today....  I really wasn't aware of how cute the cut outs
are..

I cut out the <owl1> at 3 inches and all layers too...  then I glued him together...  and then added stickles for some bling...   I used Fruit Punch, gold and tropical tangerine.   Then I used glossy accents for the eyes, feathers and feet..

Sorry the picture is a little blurry.

Please remember to check out all the other projects on EricasCraftRoom blog..

   And be watching for June's Blog Hop...  it will be starting June 2nd and 3rd...   I am sure the projects will be great...

thanks Pattie

Would You Ever Guess Wednesday, May 16th

Good Morning everyone,

     Today with Erica's Craft Room it is Would You Ever Guess Wednesday and today we are using the Phrase  feature  !!!!!!  And here is what I came up with...

   

I am using the Paisley Cartridge today ....  and I used two different phrases...    I cut "totally" and "chillin" at 1 1/4inch each and I used blackout and just the regular cut out word...     Totally is in White and Chillin is in Pink.

I absolutely loved the driving a car....  this is too cute...    I cut the <zebra> at 4 inches and all layers for the car and the zebra.   This is also cut from the Paisley Cartridge.

I made her car pink...  and I used Pearl Stickles and clear glitter stickles..   I also used silver on the tires to look like hubcabs...      and if you look closely I used red glitter stickles for her brake lights and gold and clear for her headlight...

Hope you liked my idea today...  I will be doing the other page later, for when our little group hits the road for our weekend crop....

Thanks, Pattie
