You are my anchor box made using the Wrap it up and Artiste cartridges.

Hello, friends!

Today's Bitten By The Bug 2 challenge is to cut a box or bag out using the Cricut and decorate it in a masculine way. I used the Wrap it Up and Artiste cartridges. I kind of wrestled with the design, but finally came up with this project. I was happy that I finally got to use my Sail Away stamp set that coordinates with the Artiste cartridge. I just love the nautical theme!

I used the Tommy paper pack.

I also used the Tommy assortment for the tiny flags.

The chevron ribbon is from Close To My Heart as well.

celebrate! Birthday card made using Wrap It Up!

Hello, friends!

I hope you are all having a great week! We had another snow day on Wednesday. This snow and cold weather really needs to go away!

My Imagine has come back from PC all fixed and purring like a kitten! I will be making stuff using this wonderful machine very soon, so be looking for that! I am so excited that I am back in business with my Imagine!

Today's card is made using the Wrap it Up cartridge. This cartridge has so much on it and I keep forgetting to use it.

This is made using Close To My Heart paper.

I cut the candle out at 3".

I also used some Papertrey Ink die cuts that I made using my cuttlebug.

Thanks so much for stopping by! Next week I will post my son's Valentines and Hello Thursday projects on Thursday.

Have a great weekend!

Winter Wonderland card made using the NEW Wrap It Up cartridge

Hello, friends!

Today I have another project I made using the NEW Wrap It Up cartridge. Instead of making a bag, I wanted to make a card to show you that this cartridge is not just for bags. This cartridge is tons and tons of fun and will be great for many uses including scrapbooking and cardmaking.

I cut the word art at 2 1/4".

I used DCWV glitter paper.

The patterned paper is from October Afternoon.

The ribbon is from Papertrey Ink.

This is another cartridge that is great for vinyl. Also, the font is clean and simple which is what I love in a font.

I cut the border at 8 1/2" 5 times.
