Wall Decor using cricut home decor cartridge

Love this cartridge.  Thanks Shontell for letting me borrow it.  I love this flowering branch.  I have used it on walls, cards and gift bags.  I only have a picture of the wall. :)

Happy Birthday

These cards were simple to make. I actually did about 6 colors in all, but only have pictures of 3. I used my cuttlebug and the happy birthday embossing folder. Inked the cards and added ribbon. I also did white cards inked and accented in orange, lime green and torquoise blue.
Note: I lined up the square for the present to match the background.

Health, Peace and Sweet Content - Holiday Card

This is not my typical holiday card, but I wanted to make a card with white and blue. I started it and got the white card embossed and the blue strip done.. and then I was stuck...and then I found this sketch on another blog. And it helped me out, thank you for the sketch Robin. I also found a quote by Shakespeare that I liked it states: "Health, Peace and Sweet content be yours." I think that is very appropriate for this season and always...I wish you all, Health, Peace and sweet content. Have a happy day.

Note: I embossed the white using the dots embossing folder on the cuttlebug, Just my type embossing border on the blue, added some green ribbon and chalk.

Fall card

This is a card I made for card club last Thanksgiving. I had this gorgeous paper and I just wadded it up into a ball, about 5 times...to make it look crinkled and soft. I used cork board. a leaf brad and leaf.

Kids Dyno-mite birthday card

This card I made about a year ago and I needed to make some more, so I changed just one thing on it. The paper behind the dinosaur, I embossed with my cuttlebug and the swiss dots folder. The words I did on the computer and printed it out. The dinosaur is a sticker by Provo craft. You can find them at Roberts.

Kids birthday waterfall card

Here is used the same colors of the previous birthday card and made a waterfall card.

Waterfall Cards

My sister found these on the internet and told me how fun they were to make. I agree! They are really fun to make and even more fun to give. You can find the instructions here.
As you pull the tab down...each square says something. This one says, Thank you so much.

Butterfly card

This card I copied from an idea that I saw on the Cricut Message Board. The original creator is Stampin Meg, you can see her card here. Thanks for the great idea! I did this card for a blank card theme. I used the Home accents cartridge for the butterfly.

Get well card

This card I used a card "recipe" from the magazine "Joy of card making." It has pockets and you sew up the sides on your sewing machine. It was a lot of fun to make. I did this card while I was pregnant with Chloe, so a few years ago. It is still one of my favorites. It took a bit longer, but, I just did it in steps. I love this card.

Thank U card

This card was inspired by a card my friend Tiffany did at card club. She was sweet enough to let me borrow her stamp set. Underneath the U (on the yellow) there are flowers that are heat embossed with clear embossing powder. The ribbon is sheer ivory and silver cording.

Halloween Card or Invite

This is a really quick and easy card for Halloween. I used my cuttlebug and embossed the front with "Haunted House" embossing folder. Then inked the front with black ink and chalked the moon and windows. I was inspired by Susan at Heartprints.net...you can find hers
here. I love her cards, she always has great ideas!

Bridal Shower Card

I made this card for my nephew's fiance (now wife :), for her bridal shower. I used the paper doll cartridge for the cricut. It was a "matchbook" style card, cut from the Tags, Bags and Boxes cartridge. The lilac cardstock was embossed with the cuttlebug, using the divine swirls embossing folder. I also stapled it with the staple "LOVE" and put dimensional glaze on the staple. I then added silver cord ribbon from Stampin' up. I used a lot of vellum, bling and glitter paper on the paper dolls. It was a fun card to make.

Mother's Day Card

This is a card I made for Mother's Day. I love the colors. I was inspired by an outfit that Chloe was wearing one day. Once again, I used an embossing folder from Cuttlebug and then inked it white. The pink paper the flower is on is called a slider, a die cut from cuttlebug. My sister, Shari, taught me that trick. Thanks Shari! In fact, I think I will post some of the cards she has made...she is AMAZING! :)

Baby Shower invite

This was the invitation I made for my sister Laurel's baby shower. She had liked the colors of the thank you cards I did, so I came up with this. I used a "baby girl" embossing folder and the "dots" embossing folder from Cuttlebug. (If you haven't noticed...I love my cuttlebug!!) I scored the lines using my scor-pal. Love that too!! I chalked the baby and the pea pod.

Secret Service Agent Invite

In our church I am blessed to work with the girls that are 8-11 years old. We had a great combined activity last week. We found the idea on sugardoodle.net, it is a Secret Service Agent Activity. I was in charge of making the invitations. I used my cricut to cut out envelopes and tags. I then printed info on the tag, inked it black and attached a red ribbon. On the envelope I stamped
TOP SECRET in white and added a paper with AGENTS WANTED attached with a paper clip. The activity was a blast. Everyone did a fabulous job. They received breifcases, id's, a service mission for the next week and badges. One of my favorite parts was that we took their ID PHOTO with those funny glasses that have a nose attached. They were all so very cute. It turned out great..thanks to all the helpful and talented women in our ward!!

Thank You, Blank Card

These cards were inspired by Sue Nelson at www.heartprints.net She has the most beautiful cards...thanks for sharing Sue. I used the Cuttlebug and my Scor-pal to create these cards. I love the "birds" embossing folder. :)

Thank You Card

I made this card for a baby shower gift. I like to make sets of similar cards and give them as part of a gift..in sets of 5 to 10. The base card is white and the edges are inked in pink. I embossed the pink with a Cuttlebug embossing folder. The ribbon I found at Michaels.

"Sweet 16" Card

This was a card I made for a Birthday Theme. I used the Cuttlebug to emboss the dots on the front. The flowers and 16 are cut from doodlebug paper..it has glitter on it. It is "sugar-coated" with glitter. The "sweet" was written with a versamark pen and heat embossed with green.
