Owl Christmas Card - New Cricut Explore

Hi Everyone!!  I was one of the lucky people who picked up the Cricut Explore with a 60% coupon from Joann's.  They made a huge mistake letting the coupon apply so I got it for $119, can't beat that.  I really wasn't looking to pick one up since I have my Silhouette Cameo but for that price I couldn't pass it up.

Here's a quick card I made with it, Design Space is very easy to use, but it's nothing like Make the Cute or Silhouette Studio, luckily I have the 1.9 version of SSDE on my computer so I can save my designs as svgs and import them into design space to cut.  I'll be able to use my silhouette files which I'm very happy about, I imported some of these cuts from the Silhouette Store.  So far I like how the Explore cuts and it's much quieter than my cameo.  It also came with a bluetooth adapter so I used my Surface Pro 3, it worked great, really love that.  More come as I find time to play!!

Reindeer With Lights Christmas Card - PKS Face Day!

Hi Everyone!!  Here's my Peachy Keen Face Day project I'm sharing over on their blog today!
I used the eyes and mouth from the PK-1435 Fall Face Parts Medium set to create this cute reindeer. 

This set is so perfect for cards, I'm very happy Kathy made this set in two other sizes also, Large and X-Large.  They are great for treat boxes, scrapbooking and home decor projects.

The sentiment, musical notes and diamonds are all from the PKSC-31 July 2014, the stamps in this set are so adorable, great for your Holiday cards.

I created the background using some Versamark on the PK-1381 Polka Dot Background stamp and heat embossing with some Pearl White powder.  I used a blender tool and added the Stormy Sky Distress Ink.

The Reindeer with Lights is from Miss Kate Cuttables, the Cloud Speech Bubble was created using one of My Creative Time's Dies and the background with stitching is from Jaded Blossom Card Mat Dies.

Have a wonderful day!!

Let It Snow - My Creative Time

This tag was made using Dies and Stamps from My Creative Time.

The bag was created using the We R Memory Keeper's Gift Bag Punch Board.

As much as I love my Silhouette Cameo it's so nice to have dies and these punch boards.

For the tag base I used both the XL Label and Stitched XL Label Dies.  I cut out two stitched label dies and used the Large Cloud Bubble Edge die on one to create the snow bottom.  Using the Let it Snow sentiment and snowflakes from the Winter Cheer Set I stamped using Versamark on white card stock and embossed with white pearl powder.  I sponged the tag with Tim Holtz Stormy Sky distress ink and added some dots with a white gel pen.  The deer is from the new Oh Deer set, I also stamped and embossed the bag with the Winter Cheer snowflakes.  These stamps and dies are so wonderful!!
