Canada Day Printables

I love this printable! It's perfect to scrap your pictures celebrating July the 1st.

It is available free for personal use at Rhonda Steed's website.

I also found this great, free printable.

You can download the file at We 3 blog.

I searched high and low for "Canada" scrap supplies this year. There really is not much out there. Please leave me a comment if you know of any paper lines. In the meantime, I will happily scrap with these awesome 3X4 cards!

Graduation card using Create a Friend

My daughter and I love the Paperdoll Dress Up cartridge. I am sure we have cut out every character multiple times over the years. I was so excited to get the second Paperdolls cartridge and we have had fun with that one as well. Today, my favourite Cricut cartridge is Create a Friend. I made this graduation card for a family friend and I wanted to mimic her cap and gown photo. Easy Peasy with this fun cartridge!

I used the attach and hide contour features to write on her diploma so it could be personalized. I love how it resembles her!

The Create a Friend cartridge is included in the Access Design Space Subscription.

Father's Day BBQ Card

I have seen some fabulous cut files to create a BBQ card for Dad. I wanted to see if I could create my own and make our own barbecue/grill.

Here it is! All cut with Cricut cartridges other than the box card file. The food is from Block Party and the sentiment is from Father's Day. The grill *hee hee* is actually a crib rail from Everyday Paper Dolls. (It is called Paper Dolls for Everyday on my Design Space.) I just sliced off the top and bottom and then sized it to my paper barbecue.

I am entering this card for a Father's Day Challenge at Die Cuttin Divas.

Thanks for stopping in!

End of the school year cards

It's THAT time of year again. The end of the school year card-making session. These cards were quick and easy to make with the Cricut Explore and my Design Space access subscription. The pencil cards are for my high-schooler to give to each of his teachers. There is a Tim Hortons gift card affixed to each one.

I also made the band teacher a canvas for her office. This cut is from the Quarter Note cartridge.

You may notice there is no Father's Day card in that pile. Therefore, I am heading back to my scraproom.

Father's Day cards through the years

Are you sitting in front some card-making supplies looking for some Father's Day inspiration? Here are some of my cards I have made for the hubs. If you click on the father's day label on the right, you can get more info. ----->

Have fun making a Father's Day card for your father, grandfather, step-father, foster father or children's father! (I think I covered all the Dads)

Doctor Who Cricut cut and layout

Last week, I opened up Design Space and couldn't believe my eyes. There is a TARDIS! It is on the Trendy T-Shirts Cricut cartridge, included in the subscription. I had to cut it for my daughter who still loves this series. It is a beautiful cut but be patient there are many tiny pieces. *68 cuts but who's counting* I cut my tardis at 10.5 inches and I wouldn't recommend going any smaller.

I added the call box info onto the door. I tried to create a "Doctor Who" effect by sanding some Core'dinations paper as my background.

I love it!
Can you believe all the Doctor Who projects I have made with my Cricut Explore? Here is a roundup of them.
