Happy Birthday Mustache - Forever Young

My best friend daughter turned 20! OMG! driving, college, boyfriend, etc....I am not ready for that.  We celebrated her birthday with a Mustache Party.  It was super cool!  Everybody had a mustache including the card that I did for her.  Today I saw that Fantabulous Cricut Challenge has a new challenge about birthday cards.

 

Cartridge: Forever Young

I cut a 5" x 10" card and folded one half and the other half in two half. I followed the instructions from How to Make Easel Cards from ScrapTutor.com. Then I cut one piece 5"x5" to created the front of the card. On the 5 x 5 I embossed using the Happy Birthday stencil. To decorate the front I cut a female silhouette 5" with a short dress from Forever Young. I used her favorite colors, purple and lavender. For the mustache I used my Billionaire Cartridge. ON the inside I wrote: "Le mustache Glamour".

 

The mustache was from Billionaire, Cricut Lite.

 

The letters I used are from  Billionaire Cartridge.

 

I hope you like it.  We had a wonderful mustache celebration!

 

Halloween Candy Box-Tags Bags & More 2

Finally Halloween is here, even Xmas is on all the stores, but lets deal with one holiday at the time.  We are going to be out of town for Halloween, so I was thinking in a little gift for my children's cousins to bring.  I used Tags, Bags and More 2, to create a mini box, with Halloween paper (K&Company). 

Materials:  Cartridge Tags, Bags & More 2 and Happy Hunting's.
Additional materials:  Action wobbles, glue

This is the top of the box.

The first layer is a black paper mat to put the second layer with the carabellas on yellow.Under the black layer is the action wobble to give moment to the top.  I did various layouts, witches and hats.

On the inside, the paper has beautiful colors and I just put some M&M.

To put the final touch, the orange ribbon goes around and under the action wobble head.

 

I hope you like it! 

Treat or Treak!!

 

FCCB's On the Job Challenge - CCR Image Obama Rommey

Hello everyone:

I will like to share another challenge sponsor by Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Blog - Challenge Me Monday #127.  We have to create an occupational career image in order to participate.  Being born and race in Puerto  Rico, the most popular career is politics.  Yes! everybody wants to be a lawyer to be in politics, and also being in an election year, I think politics will be part of the occupational career to all of us.

 

To create this card, I used the FREE images from  Cricut Craft Room from Barack Obama and Mitt Romney.  They are fantastic and very realistic images.  I cut both in 4" and follow the images colors to cut every detail.

 I've it, specially free, and I know I will used it again for any project for my kids school. 

They look so real!!!

 Enjoyed!!

Then, for the first time I published my bags in the Cricut page, WOW!!!! That is a major step.  If I win I will be able to used all the cricut images from the craft room for free.  The competition is really hard, but in the mind time I have fun!  I don't put too much effort in this project, since I wasn't to be able to used it for my children lunch:

Cartridge:  Critters 2
Materials needed:  red, black and orange cart stock, a piece of orange ribbon, glue and two paper bags.

 This is the image of the two lunch boxes together.

The pirate ghost was cut 4" with black shadow, red layer and orange silhouette.  For highlight the eye, I used a wobble eye.

 

 

Folding the bag in two, then you glue the BOO sign to the front of the image to keep all the attention in one side of the bag.  Know is ready for lunch!!
