Kids Theme

Create a project for kids

For my project, I created a card using the Twinkle Toes cartridge.  Some good friends of ours recently had their second baby girl.  When we go to meet their new baby we're going to take their older girl (recently promoted to Big Sister!) a little gift too.  This is the card I made for her.

I think the little ballerinas on this cartridge are so cute!  I hid the face cuts in Cricut Craft Room so I could use one of my Peachy Keen Stamps for her face.  A crinkle ribbon bow, topped off with a twine bow and button, and a few gems finish off the card.

We sure hope you'll join in the fun with us this week.  Please remember our rules for participating in the FCCB challenges:

• You may add up to 3 unique projects that meet the challenge criteria
• You must use at least 1 Cricut cut, after that anything goes, stamps, svg's, etc.

Also, if it's not obvious, be sure to let us know what cartridge you used!  Thanks for stopping by!!

First Birthday Airplane Card

Good evening!

Our neighbor's sweet little boy turned one this past Saturday.  I wanted to put together a card for him and thought an airplane pulling a "Happy 1st Birthday" banner would be cute, so I pulled out some Cricut handbooks to find some images.  I used the Beep Beep cartridge, one I got for Christmas but have yet to use, and also Twinkle Toes, another cartridge I've had for a while but rarely use.

I'm going to enter this card into a couple of challenges.  Over at Fantabulous Cricut, the challenge this week is April Showers - make a project with an umbrella, rain or clouds on it.  The clouds on my background paper came from the Cricut Imagine Best Friends cartridge.  Over at My Craft Spot, the challenge this week is Make it Pop - use dimensionals to make some part of your card really stand out.  I used two different sized dimensionals - larger ones for the airplane and smaller ones to pop up a few clouds that I cut around for a little extra depth on the card.

Thanks for coming by to take a look - hope you are all having a great week!
