Design Team Wednesday

Hello everyone...Happy first day of summer :) In honor of the start of summer, I created a card using Tanner's Summertime Fun stamp set. The sunglasses come from the Forever Young cartridge cut at 2 inches. I love the bright colors of summer and this Lime Twist paper worked perfectly to show off those colors.
Have a great day!


Hugs,
Heather

Part 3-Card

Welcome to part 3 of the Father's Day set. What better way to top off the set than with a card! This is an A2 size card. The shirt is cut at 4 inches. I inked around the edges with the Tim Holtz frayed burlap ink. The sentiment comes from the Mr. Cricutcrazy sentiment set, Dads, Dads. 
I hope you've enjoyed this set! 


Have a great day!!


Hugs,
Heather

Altered Picture Frame

Hello everyone! Welcome to part 2 of the 3 part Father's Day set. Today's project is an altered picture frame. I bought this picture frame at Michaels in their wood section for $1. First, I painted the back and the edges with Khaki Folk Art paint. Then I used some patterened paper from the My Mind's Eye Lost and Found collection to cover the front. I used Modge Podge to glue it down. Then using the Simply Charmed cartridge, I cut some ties out at 1 inch. The 2012 comes from George and Basic shapes using the shadow cut, also 1 inch. I inked the edges of all of the cuts with Frayed Burlap by Tim Holtz. 
Thanks for stopping by. See you on Friday for part 3.


Hugs,
Heather

Father's Day Gift Bag

Hello everyone! Thanks for stopping by. Today I worked on a 3-piece gift set for Father's Day. I'm going to start by showing you the gift bag. This is a smaller bag measuring 5 1/2 x 8 1/2. I used the cartridge Simple Charmed to create the shirt. I used my gypsy so the measurements aren't exact, but it's roughly 8 inches long. I hid the face that is originally on the tie. I then used my Tim Holtz tiny tags die in my cuttlebug to create the tags. The sentiments come from the Mr. CricutCrazy Dads, Dads stamp set. All of the images are inked using Frayed Burlap distress ink. If you have any questions, please let me know.
Check bag on Wednesday for part 2 of the set :) 
Have a great day!!


Hugs,

Heather

Design Team Wednesday

Hello everyone and welcome to another Design Team Wednesday post for Mr. CricutCrazy. Today I'm featuring the Dads, Dads stamp set. This set is perfect for those men in your life!! Plus with Father's Day around the corner, it has great sentiments for your cards.
For today's card, I used the Cricut cartridge, Sports Mania. I cut the trophy at 4 1/2 inches. The card is an easel card so the base is 4 1/4 x 11 scored at 5 1/2 and 2 3/4. The patterned paper comes from My Mind's Eye Lost and Found. I ran the cream cardstock through a Cuttlebug folder entitled Stars. 
Hope you enjoy!

Heather
