Cricut Pirate Gift Bag

Hello, friends!

Today, I have a gift bag that I made to match the birthday card I made for my son! I used the Mermaid Dimensional Scenes online content to make this along with the Over the Hill cartridge for the sentiment and the Pumpkin Carving cartridge for the tag. 

Ok, let's talk about the dimensional scenes content. There are several of them and I pretty much love them all. Don't put off by all of the layers. They are all pretty easy to assemble. Make sure you check out the octopus one. I think that has a lot of potential for a boys bathroom!

All of the cardstock used is from Close To My Heart. It cuts like butter in my machine and works well together!

Cricut Fancy Gift Bag

Hello, friends!

Today, I have a fancy gift bag that I made using the Anna Griffin Layered Cards and Anna's Ribbons and Bows cartridge. 

Gift bags are both fun and easy to make. I just love making them for a friend or family member. It does not take much effort and will make the recipient smile!

I buy my bags at Joann's and have them on hand to decorate. I do not typically make them in advance, but I probably should!

Cricut Artiste Valentine Gift Bag

Hello, friends!

Well, I have figured out why I have been so tired and did not feel like making a video. My Oncologist says I have chronic anemia and have to get an infusion tomorrow. Also, he is sending me to a Gastrointestinal doctor to see if the cause can be found. Good times, ladies. It feels like it is always something!

Now lets talk about something fun. I made this cute little Valentine gift bag which is just perfect for treats using the Close To My Heart Artiste cartridge! 

When you look down at the sizes, you will notice that the size for the bag is 12". I would just use fit to size on your Expression. If you cut this using an Explore, let me machine think you have a 12" x 24" mat, but you can put in your 12" x 12" mat. That is what I did. I often trick my machine like this bwahahaha! 

If you have an Explore, here is the file: Cricut Artiste Valentine Gift Bag

If you do not have an Explore, here are the sizes:
bag - 12"
rose - 4"
leaves - 1"
heart - 3 1/2"
'be mine' - 1 1/2"
