Planner Pages using Cricut Imagine Images in Design Space

Hello friends! Here is a video I made showing you the August pages from my Color Crush personal planner.  I had fun making my own stickers using Cricut Imagine cartridge images and the print then cut feature with my Cricut Expore. I've included a few tips from my experience with the print then cut feature. 

I found this gorgeous charm that goes perfectly with my purple and gold planner!

Nothing too fancy. Just playing with stickers as I try to stay organized. Here is the calendar spread using images from Imagine Lori's Garden. I love that hummingbird!

I even cut out reinforcement stickers for the holes using the patterned paper from this cartridge. I played around using border stickers since I don't have pretty washi tape to play with.

Some of these images are from the Better Together cartridge. I created this stack of bunnies card with print and cut using this Molang image. I love this pile of chunky bunnies! It works as a fabulous insert to attach notes to the back. 

Thanks so much for hopping by!

Have a blessed day!  

Snail Mail Note Card Set

Hello my crafty friends! Are you ready for Spring? I know in some parts of the country it is still winter but here in So.California the weather is warm and we even got a few showers this week. The hills behind my house are green, the flowers are all blooming and it makes me feel like Spring is in the air.

 Today I have a note card gift set to share...

I used my Cricut Imagine More Cards cartridge to print and cut all the images and papers on the note cards and tag. I welded the stamp shape to make 4.25" square cards that will fit in an A2 envelope. The sentiment on the card is from the Craftin Desert Diva's Lil Bit Buggie stamp set. This sentiment goes perfectly with the postage stamped papers. The To and From stamps on the tag are from the CDD Tag It stamp set.

I added a prima flower and a butterfly and decorated them with pearls. The box is from the Cricut Tags. Bags. Boxes and More cartridge. I added a crinkle ribbon that I won from Karen at the Little Scrap Pieces blog. I used papers from the DCWV Old World stack. 

Here are some close ups of the sentiments and the two Craftin Desert Diva's stamp sets I used.

Penguin Birthday Invitations

I made these invitations for a celebration of my daughter's 13th birthday. At 13 she asked to "hang out" with her friends. So we decided to invite 12 girls to the movies, Shakey's pizza and then to our house for a slumber party. This will all be happening on Saturday so I have lots of prep for all those teenagers coming over!!

I chose the invitation card from the Cricut Wild Card cartridge and cut it at 4 1/2" so 2 would fit on a 12"x12" sheet of white paper. I used my Imagine so I could fill the cuts with the cartridge paper and have them all matching. I found the cuts from Imagine More Cards and chose the colored papers from that cartridge as well. I used my gypsy to remove the face cuts from the penguin in the Create a Critter cartridge and used the Happy Lashes Peachy Keen stamps for the faces. I stickled the scarf and added some purple and white twine for the balloon string.

This is the backside and shows how it opens. I used the computer to type out the invite and attached it to the liner that goes in with the corner cuts that the invitation cut makes on the Wild Card cartridge.

This is how they looked front and back! I made 13 of these and it went pretty quick using the Imagine. I'm not a pro with my Imagine and have yet to try my gypsy with it but I am happy that I decided to use it! My dog is still lost and I have not been crafting like I would like. It feels like losing a family member to me. I am so sad. Please say a prayer for my lost dog and that he is safe and comes home soon.

 

I will enter these cards into the Fantabulous Cricut blogs "Spring is in the Air" Challenge
