More CTMH Cricut Creations

I only had about 20 minutes yeterday to play with the new "Art Philosophy" Cricut cartridge from Close To My Heart, so I didn't get much made. However, I did do a 3 inch Christmas Tree, 2 different 3 inch snowflakes (I inked over both with my CTMH White Daisy and on one of them I used a little bit of CTMH Liquid Glass) I also was curious what the box looked like. I think it is really neat, although the 3 inch size that I cut isn't really practical for putting anything in! Hope you enjoy these pictures! I will try to create some more tonight to post tomorrow; until then, Happy Scrapping!

More Cricut Creations

So since I have a baby that is not quite a year old, I have plenty of extra empty wipes boxes. I also have the need to be very organized as he takes a lot of my time and energy and he is becoming more mobile every day. I decided that I should somehow use these two facts and make them work together. As you can see from my photos above, I came up with at least one solution. I used the CTMH "Art Philosophy" Cricut Cartridge to cut out letters to form the words "CTMH Blocks". I then used CTMH Liquid Glass to adhere the letters to the box. It works perfect for storing my CTMH My Acrylix Stamp Blocks!

Creations Using the New CTMH Cricut cartridge

These are some pictures of a bag that I made using the Close To My Heart "Art Philosophy" Cricut cartridge. You have so many different options using this cartirdge. I chose a red paper (non CTMH), and cut it in the 6 inch size. It has marks showing you exactly how to fold it into a bag. I used CTMH Liquid Glass to adhere it. I then used some green paper (non CTMH) and the same Cricut cartridge to cut a 3 inch stocking. I used CTMH Silver Embossing Powder for the "fluff" part of the stocking and adhered it to the front of the bag. I will post again when I finsh them, but I am thinking ribbon or something aroung the top and then filling it with little treats (candy, home-made cookies or something like that). Great little inexpenxive easy Christmas gifts for co-workers or friends.

Close To My Heart Art Phiolsophy Cricut Cartridge

If you have not seen the NEW Close To My Heart "Art Philosophy" Cricut Cartridge then you are in for a treat! This cartridge has over 700 images (tags, envelopes, bags, borders, fonts, etc) that you can cut in a variety of sizes. I just recently got mine (on this past Friday, I haven't had much time to play with it yet)and I am in LOVE with it! For only $99 plus tax and shipping, you have a FANTASTIC cartridge, plus 3 coordinating My Acrylix stamp sets and 3 pages of dimensional elements. As a fellow CTMH consultnat figured up (Thanks for the info, Mandy Leahy)she has 5 different sized circle punches, purchased from various sources. By her calculations, she spent around $80 on these punches. That is only 5 sizes of the circle shape for less than $20 difference in the price of the new Cricut Cartridge!!! So it is definately a GREAT deal! As I use mine more, I will post pictures, just in case this hasn't convinced you yet!! Contact me today to order yours! For every cartridge I sell during October 2011 (Breast Cancer Awareness Month) I will donate $2 to breast cancer research. It's a win-win!
