This is a birthday card I made using Disney Pixar "CARS" cartridge.
I had to make a stand for the front end, and it is simply the track with a few slits in it.
The stand on the back was traced from a purchased card stand.
It slips in a tiny pocket I added on the back end.
This allows the card to be disassembled and stored flat...separate from the track.
-The car is McQueen2 pg 32, cut at 6"H.
-Track is from Cars cart and welded on Gypsy.
-Happy Birthday is from Martha Stewart Elegant Cake Art cart pg. 37.
-Font is from Martha Stewart Elegant Cake Art cart, and is called "Dinner At Eight".
-Black posterboard was used to make track.
-Yellow posterboard was used to make card base.
-Cardstock, Glimmer Mist, Stickles, pop-dots, red-liner tape, & Tacky Glue.
This blog is mostly about knitting,crochet,& paper crafts.

BITTY TREAT CUPS
-I used the cupcake holder on ELMO'S BIRTHDAY PARTY cart.
In this instance, it's better than a cupcake wrapper, because this one cuts a bottom too.
-Round Scallop foot (makes it more stable) cut from FOREVER YOUNG.
-BITTY,EGG,& GRASS cut from CREATE A CRITTER.
-Crescent shape used to weld grass to was from MARTHA STEWART ELEGANT CAKE ART.
-CARDSTOCKS:
DCWV: The Glitter Stack, The Sweet Stack, The Blossoms & Butterflies Stack.
K & CO. Brights Designer Paper Pad (Life's Little Occasions).
-Baskets filled w/ Chocolate crisp bunnies, Reeses cups, Ring Pops, Ferrero Rocher dark choc truffles,& Jelly beans in a plastic egg. These were a big hit, and it made the work day a bit more interesting.

his Chapeau & Vest are made w/ K & COMPANY
(Tim Coffey Cottage Garden) cardstock.
-FRAME (6.25) is from WINNIE THE POOH and Friends.

-"WOOF" is from POOH FONT (marker shadow).

DECORATED ENVELOPES
Lay enevelopes underneath your cricut cutouts.
When you Glimmermist the cutouts the excess spray isn't wasted.
Don't forget to decorate the back of the enve too.

Shabby chic layout
I'm trying to do a layout I found on http://www.scrapbook.com/.
It's very shabby chic!
I Glimmer Misted these branches cut from from various carts(K & Co. paper).
The pink flowers were mostly cream colored Primas. The green ones were just improved w/olive Glimmer Mist.
Here's what I have done so far.
Custom Garden Seed Packs
I love to share seeds from my veg garden w/ friends. So, ofcourse I had to make custom enves.
Seed packs cut on Cricut. Butterfly welded to enve.
Welded letters are Holiday Cakes cart font.

CAROUSEL HEXAGON EXPLODING BOX
I made this box as a birthday card for a co-worker. We all signed it underneath the inner pages. It's basically a butterfly theme.
I used:
- DCWV MARIOSA stack
- K & CO SUSAN WINGET NATURE stack
-Mary JO Recker'S WILD BUTTERFLIES RUB ONS
- BRILLIANCE COPPER and GOLD ARCHIVAL INK PADS
- MARTHA STEWART PUNCH
Note: For some reason, I couldn't get the lid to fit the box precisely.
I changed the sizing a bit, but still, the lid was a bit too large. The pages do have a bit of a gap beween them.
I got the idea from the site below.
