FCCB #189 - Beyond Red and Green

Happy Monday!  It's time for another fun challenge over at Fantabulous Cricut!!

Challenge #189 Beyond Red and Green

Create a holiday project that does NOT use red or green

This is great challenge - perfect for the holiday season that is now upon us.  Create any holiday project, without the colors red or green, and as always - use at least one Cricut cut!!

~This Weeks Sponsor~

Winner will receive the Polka Dot Sentiments stamp set

For my project, I made a holiday card using one of the cute snowmen on the Winter Frolic cartridge.  I used a Peachy Keen stamp for his face and added a little embossing to his hat.

I printed the background paper using my Imagine and the Christmas Wish cartridge.

Be sure to visit the FCCB blog and enter our challenge.  Remember, you need to use 1 Cricut cut to be eligible for the prize. Also, please visit our wonderful sponsor!  Thanks for stopping by!!

Christmas Gift Bag

Good evening!  I've had a busy week at work and have been trying to get various things done around the house this week, so I haven't been able to craft too much.  What's new, right?!?

Well, my brother is coming to visit tomorrow and I'm hoping to have all the Christmas presents for his family wrapped and ready to go so that I can send them home with him when he leaves.  I have the packages wrapped, but I needed a gift bag for one of the gifts we're giving my niece.  I dusted off my Imagine and got to creating!!

This is the first time I've attempted to fill an image from a regular Cricut cartridge with a pattern from an Imagine cartridge.  Very easy - something I will definitely need to keep in mind for future projects!!

I'm going to enter this bag into Holiday Spirit challenge over at Die Cuttin Divas.  Now I'm off to try to get started on my tags so I can get these packages finished up!!  Thanks for stopping by!
