Thanksgiving Tablescape



Today I bring you a fun project using the new Print than Cut feature that Cricut now offers.

I created fun table center piece:



I used the following cartridges:

Enjoy the Season
Autumn Celebrations


I started out with this cute glitter bucket from the dollar spot and a bunch of items from the dollar store for a total cost of 8 bucks for it all. 


I created a center piece using leaves and twigs that I had in my stash of craft items. 




Here it the turkey that I printed and than cut out. I just attached him to a small dowel rod. 

The leaves and acorns. 


Here are my cute matching napkin holders and the finished table.

My Cricut Craft Room- Modern



Thanks for joining me today from My Cricut Craft Room and today's theme is Modern!


Today I am showcasing my modern style Give Thanks!

I used some different colors for my Thanksgiving banner with some teals, blacks and orange to give it a different look. these have become so popular for Fall colors. Use traditional colors and add that pop of modern.


I cut all of the black back ins using a fun frame using the cartridge Songbird. 



Here is the layer with the teal.

Turkey Day is around the Corner


I can not believe Thanksgiving is like two weeks away. It felt like it was just here and now a whole year as passed. I figure this is the last year I can make fun shirts for my oldest (youngest has a few more years). 


I designed (with help from the little one) thier Thanksgiving shirts. Mr. L is well Doctor Who inspired. He was so excited when I showed it to him. My hubby laughed and said it was really cute. 

Both shirts were a lot of cutting and piecing even using the Cricut and worth it because they turned out so cute!

Dollar Store Thanksgiving Decor



I love easy crafts and well this was an easy one. I spent more time looking for the glue than actually putting it together. This craft was under 10 bucks (mainly because I had the popcorn already).

I just bought three hurricanes from the dollar store, glued candle sticks on them and filled with popcorn kernels and added the candle.

CASE-ing the Catty # 14- Color Challenge



This week at CASE-ing the Catty we are doing a color challenge using the above colors. These colors are inspired by the Santa and Co suite. I love the colors for Christmas. 


For my card this week, I was inspired both by the Watercolor Winter Simply Created kit which I used with a piece of the fun DSP from Santa  & Co. I also used the stamp set Endless wishes for my greeting. These three made some fun cards to make. 

Here are two others I was inspired to make as well. 





Just love these all together and they will make my cards so much more sparkle for the holidays!

Also we will be back after the holidays with more fun! We want to enjoy the fun of the seasons with our families. 

Thanks for stopping by!

My Cricut Craft Room- Clouds



Thanks for joining me at My Cricut Craft Room and today's theme is Clouds!!!

I was unsure how I would do clouds for this theme but I came up with this fun scrapbook page for my daughter and my mother in law.



I used my own file for Hello specifically I imported into CDS SU's hello from one of thier digital sets made for ecutters.

Sunshine was from the April Showers Cart and I used the write feature for the Explore.

The rectangles are your basic freebie from CDS and I sized to fit the picture and layered!




The clouds are from the Crocs Rule cart. I just cut out the layers using different types of DSP from SU. Love how they look! 

I love how simple but adorable the page turned out

12 Days of Christmas Crafts- Day 5



I saw over at one of my favorite blogs Christmas Gifts to make . I loved the idea of making the inserts for the frame and went ahead and did my own version of it to give out as gifts to friends. It was a quick gift and it looks so cute and it gives all year.
