Throwback Thursday Challenge

Well the challenge this week on My Creative Time is to use the "New Arrival" cartridge. But I don't own that cart so I used "Doodlecharms" and "Beyond Birthdays" instead (I'm pretty sure they both qualify as "old" carts, lol) Anyway I used my Cricut Design Studio to make the Bottle shaped card (Doodlecharms), layered the bottle, and then added the sentiment from "Beyond Birthdays". I LOVE the way it all turned out! The picture really doesn't do it justice! The patterned cardstock has glitter accents that didn't really show up in the pic :( and the "it's a girl" is put on with the foam squares to give it some dimension.

Recipe:

• Baby bottle cut @ 6" (Doodlecharms cartridge)
• "Its a girl" cut @ 3" (Beyond Birthdays cartridge)
• DCWV "the Sweet stack" patterned cartstock
• Martha Stewart carstock
• Dimensional adhesives
• Mono adhesive

Baby Shower Invitations

Here are some of the invitations I am helping my friend Ashley make for her friends baby shower. Her theme is monkeys so of course I couldn't wait to use my new Create-A-Critter cartridge (actually I bought specifically for this project, shhh don't tell my DH, lol). This cart has soooo many cute little animals on it! It is soooo my fav right now! And we made so he can slide on the ribbon by mounting him on one of the foundation tags from Mini Monograms. And then we also made thank you cards to go with the theme. So I thought the banana would be perfect with the "thanks a bunch" stamp! So happy with how they all turned out. Hope Ashley's friend likes them. We did 70 invitations and 50 Thanks You cards! Both the banana and the bubble are from the Create-A-Critter cart. Have I mentioned how much I LOVE this cartridge!!
