NEW TESTAMENT: Count Your Blessings Card

Hello Everyone!!

I'm still in Orlando and today we are going to Disney HOLLYWOOD STUDIOS!  But, before we leave, I wanted to show you a card that I made with the newly released NEW TESTAMENT Cricut Cartridge...



The artwork released by Provocraft just does not do this cartridge justice!  One of the creative features of this cartridge is 50 different and beautiful crosses!!!!  I've wanted something like this FOREVER!! Each of the crosses have at least two layers, some have more.  Here is only one of the crosses available...


I used one of MY PINK STAMPER'S stamp sets for my sentiment.  The card design is a basic one that I love to use when I have coordinating pattern papers.


I love adding dimension to my cricut cuts by using pop dots.


The cross was cut at 3.5" with a white shadow.  I inked the edges of the shadow image with a brown cateye inkpad.


I added a flower embellishment that was in my stash to soften the cross.


I love how this turned out!  I think it would make a great Christmas card if you used Christmas papers and colors.


GIVEAWAY ALERT!!

I have an INSPIRED HEART CRICUT LITE cartridge to give away!!!  Winner will be announced one week from today (Friday, November 4, 2011).  All you have to do to be eligible to win is make sure you are a follower of my blog and leave a comment.  A lucky winner will be randomly drawn!


Have a GREAAAAATT Friday!  I'll be hanging out with my favorite Disney characters again... I just can't wait to get home and start scrapbooking all these pictures!  I will definitely be giving those Disney cartridges of mine a workout! LOL!

Disney Character Autograph Books

Hello Everyone!!

We got to see Cirque du Soleil's LA NOUBA show at Downtown Disney last night!  WOW!  That was unbelievable!  Today we will be in the MAGIC KINGDOM for the second time, but tonight we are attending Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party in the park!  Fun fun!  Here are some great pics of the autograph books that I made for Michael and Megan and how much fun we had with them in the park!



I bought these index card dividers that are colorful and plastic at Target.  They came with index cards already in them and were bound together by the two clips.


Inside, I turned the index cards around because the top side was ruled and we wanted to autographs to be on the unruled side.


There is a handy pocket on the back.  I used MICKEY FONT for both the front and back of these books and cut black vinyl to personalize them with.


Blue book for Michael... Red book for Megan!


I salvaged a strap with clips from an old backpack and used it on a plastic pencil case that I also bought at Target.  This way Michael could carry around his own autograph book and marker around his waist.  The bag opened from the bottom.


I used MICKEY FONT for the Mickey head and cut their names out of the centers with my Gypsy.


We strung black ribbon through Megan's pencil case so that she could carry it around like a purse.


It worked perfectly.


There they are!


The pencil cases were perfect for them!  The books did not get damaged in our bags and the kids were able to carry them around themselves without any difficulty.






It was so much fun collecting the charater's autographs and pictures!  


awwww.......










These books were pretty easy, but I really love how they turned out!

Creatively yours,

Tammy
