House gift tag

  Hello, friends!
Today I have the first project made using the new Cricut Explore! Unfortunately, I cannot share the file yet (because I am not sure how to do that yet and there is no point until you guys actually have this machine because the files will not work int he Cricut Craft Room), but once I can I will start including them again with my posts. 
This project I made for a local home builder. They wanted something they could put on little gifts they were giving realtors, so I came up with this design. On the back side of the tag it says 'We Love realtors'. I think they turned out pretty cute!
I used Artiste for the tag itself and Handyman for the house. I think that the heart is from Art Philosophy, but I cannot remember. 
They needed 25 of them, so here is the assembly.
Here are a few after they were assembled.
Look at how perfectly it cuts scallops! This is so FABULOUS!






This week's prize is the Creative Holiday Cards cartridge! The winner will be announced on Sunday the 23rd!

    Love the tags you made. It's always helpful to have a die-cut machine to make a project like this. Do you charge for this? I am still using my Imagine. It's been temperamental lately.

    Very cute tag and interesting that you used other carts for elements in your tag.....do you load your 'owned' carts like we did for the CCR into the Explore?

    Those are really cute! I'm glad the Explore is working out for you, and looking forward to more projects. Still on the fence, since I have a few Cricuts (E1, E2, and Imagine), so more info will be great. Thank you. BethAnn M.
