Pink Cricut DT Week! Butterfly Kisses

Its DT week at Pink Cricut!
This week I wanted to show that the stamps can be used for Home Decor!

I made this adorable mobile that would be great in a Nursery or Little girls room.
For this project I used a great new product, that I just have to rave about...it cut my project time in 1/2 and that product is Post It adhesive backed paper by 3M! This is a must have..it inks well, embosses great and if you want to add glitter..cut image in reverse and apply glitter or flock to adhesive back..easy peasy, no messes with glue!

For this project I cut butterflies from Hello Kitty at 2 1/2 and 1 3/4 out of thin chipboard..I used cereal box. Then cut layers out of Post It paper. Inked and Emboss pieces. Assemble butterflies. Add twine and ribbon to stick. Attach Butterflies, Stamp "Butterfly Kisses" Stamp on circle {stamp is from Pink Cricuts GO GREEN set}..there you have a super cute mobile!

Don't Forget to check out the other great projects by Sarah and the other Pink Cricut Designer!

Quick & Simple Halloween Treat Holders!

No cricut cuts today>...GASP....LOL I didnt have my crafting mojo today, but I wanted to get a project posted! These were made as I was going along so I will give directions the best I can!


I started out with a 5x5 piece of carstock scored at 1 1/2 on one side and then again on the opposite side and the top. Fold score lines, on the top you will have 3 squares cut the end 2 off. Fold center one down (best to use double sided paper for this). I used and edge punch one the folded down square. Tape flap back and bottom and use crimper. Adhere flap down. Add ribbon, Stamped image and candy! For the sucker it was the same, except size was cut to approx. 5x4 square. Hope I explained that well enough! If you have any questions dont hesitate to ask!

The leaves came tumbling down....

I am so in the mood for fall and all the leaves to change color. I love to take pictures outside in the fall. I made this layout with some upcoming fall pics in mind!
Erin over at Erin Lee Creative Blog is having a layout challenge, so I decided to enter this layout!


The tree is cut @ 6" from Oct. 31 cricut cart.
the leaves were cut @ 3/4" from Doodlecharms cart.

On the tree I pop dotted a few of the leaves for dimension, and stickled them.
The leaves on the "ground" I crinkled to make them look more like fallen leaves. I also pop dotted some of the fallen leaves.

The title was printed from my computer, and layered and inked.
The cute little sentiment stamp that says "Happy Fall Y'all" came from
Pink Cricut's Simply everything stamp set.
Hope this inspires you! Have a Crafty Day!
