Courtney Lane Designs for a look at her gorgeous creations and a fantastic giveaway opportunity!
The new Cricut cartridges are Give A Hoot, Just Because Cards, Straight from the Nest, and Preserves. Below are projects made using the new cartridges.
Butterfly and card from this cartridge - so pretty! Paper by My Minds Eye and sentiment from Kitchen Sink Stamps.
This cartridge includes layered images: owl, raccoon, fox, deer, bear, trees, nest, bee, earth, rabbit, peacock, birds, hedgehog, chipmunk, squirrel, frog, many flowers, bear in trash can, apple, snail, moose, leaves, tree stump, sun, acorn, branches, sea shell. Some of the images are cartoon like while others are more classic like the butterfly above.
It also has all kinds of word art with shadowing: give a hoot, everyday, friend of nature, 100% organic, bear hugs for trees, plant a tree, grow a garden, grow, beautiful world, save the bees please, wild by nature, love the earth, make a difference, natural beauty, friends, celebrate the earth, be gentle, peace, keep it clean, embrace beauty, preserve and protect, we heart earth, peace, treasure nature, hope, earth is a gift, don't pollute, love beauty, feathered friends, go green, save energy, tree hugger, don't be trashy, recycle, I care, nurture nature, trees rule, organic, conserve, be the change, coexist, we're all connected, naturally green, earth friendly, one world, don't waste it, keep it wild, it matters, clean & green.
This whale was just too cute to pass up! He was cuttlebugged to give him some texture. Note that the shadowing is wider than usual. I used Melanie's technique of adding stitching with a white pen - it just adds so much to a project! Paper is by Bo Bunny and Core'dinations.
Just Because Cards has a layered image, a layered word art sentiment, a card to fit, envelopes to fit, a sticker function key and a stencil function key for the word art for each button. This is an excellent cartridge - one I will be using over and over again. I like it more than Wild Card!
Each card is made by first cutting the card at a particular size (above was 6") and then all other cuts are made at that size. Since you make your own envelopes, you are free to cut at various sizes. The envelope sizing corresponded to the card size with no adjustments (YAY!).
This card is a pop up card made with the
Cricut Straight from the Nest cartridge. I used the Border function key and the "happy birdie day" word art. Paper is from Core'dinations, Webster's Pages and DCWV (love their glittery papers!). Card is 5" x 7".
Straight from the Nest has the cutest birds, owls, peacock, bird cages, butterfly, grass, trees, filagree images, swirls, birthday items and paisleys! It also has a corner feature key that puts each of the main images into the corner - so cute. A border feature key is what I used to make the chicks above - it also includes a layering function, which helps make the process easier. Also, a slider function key is available that makes all the base images into ribbon sliders. So handy! Finally, there is decorated word art with shadowing.
I used the orange from this card and cut it at 4 1/2". Paper is from KI Memories and Core'dinations. Sentiment from Kitchen Sink Stamps.
The
Preserves cartridge is primarily handy for those cooks out there. It has all kinds of labels, tags, lid tags, and cards for preserve recipes. There is also a ton of layered word art that goes along with all the fruit images on the cartridge so you could specify preserves, jams, jellies, butter, muffins, cake, cobbler, bars, etc. along with the fruit names. So nice for gift giving!
Don't forget to check out the Cricut on the Early Show on CBS on Friday, February 19! They will be showing under the Tech Gadgets section!!
Finally, I appreciate all the well wishes! My dad came home yesterday and is doing loads better! It really is a miracle!
