Cuttin' Up! - Acrylic

By
I wanted to make a little purse to hold chocolates with the acetate.  I wasn't quite sure if it would work, as I have never cut acetate with the Cricut before.  All I can say is WOW!  I loved it!

I used the Tags, Bags, Boxes & More cartridge and set the size to 4 3/4".  I had the cutting blade set at 6 and used the muti-cut option to have it go over it twice.  It was wonderful.  The purse popped right out with no problems.  This handy dandy little cartridge is on the retired list, so be sure to grab one while you can!!! It's one of my favorites :)
I then ran the flap of the purse though the Cuttlebug with the Daisy Flower folder.  To highlight the little flowers I used Painters markers by Elmer's, then added little plastic beads for the handle and a paper flower to top it off.  Add the yummy chocolates morsels and we are off for girls' night out!

    Hi Wanda me again. Could you send me an email with instructions on how to make this purse card and the lampshades you made out of vellum for a wedding challenge?

    I was to make these if it is ok with you. I just started paper crafting this year in feb/march, so I need all the inspiration can get.

    Thank you and I am now a follower too

Wow!  Hello everyone.  I know it's been a very long time since I posted.  I've had to deal with some personal issues and couldn't dedicate my time to crafting.  But, I'm back!  I have been doing some really fun activities and having lots of fun with Betty from Bettybrett.blogspot.com .  She has amazing Friday try days. Her crops are the greatest.  I'm looking forward to the November one. It is called Candy Cane Lane. I'm even going to teach a class of my own in paper piecing. This class will be the 23rd of November.  More details on this to follow.    I've so missed crafting and I've missed my followers.  I always said " I love my computer because my friends are in it".  LOL  I will be posting pictures soon.  I just need to get this computer set up to do it with. Huggles,  Wanda

Cuttlebug Challenge #48

By
Cuttlebug Challenge is having a month long celebration for their 1 year anniversay. This weeks challenge was a gift bag and card. For my gift bag I used a clipart from Daisie Company. I burnt around the edges to make it look old. (Little hint here. Don't do it in your kitchen even though there is water so if it get out of hand. It does set off the fire alarm. OOPS LOL ) Then I made the tag with my favorite folder for this project the Houndstooth. Tied it on with my twine to keep it in the same theme. My card I used Dustin Pike Digi-art Colored it with Bic pens and Gel pens. The inside of the card I used Clip art from Daisie Company and used the houndstooth folder again to distress the scroll.

I don't have a blog spot so I'm using my Mom's. I need to do a service project to finish my Civics' class.  The first idea didn't work because I was going to clean the boat ramp at our park that is close to my home.  But because of all the rain it was too dangerous to complete it.  So I choose to clean a church building.  It turned out to be great!  I first walked around and figured out what needed to be done.  Then I helped organized my friends to get everything covered.  We all worked very hard.  My little brother came with us and he fell asleep on some chairs.  Will he fell off and cracked his chin opened.  We had to take him to the urgent care and have it put back together.  I had to clean up the pool of blood.  But it turned out great and gave me a good feeling knowing I was a part of making the building shine.
