3d backpack cricut camping critters

And lastly a 3D backpack which opens so you can fill with lollies or marshmallows, yummy!

I put this together very quickly so would look heaps better if I used beter colour combo and glue! My glue pen is useless!

camp journal - cricut

Here is a little book made using the cricut campin critters set... has potential!!!!!!!!!!

3d tents - camping critters cricut

Here are a couple of tents made from the camping critters cartridge - yucky colours I know, just playing with these for the first time so I use the card stock I don't mind wasting if I do it wrong!!!!!!!!!!!

These would be great gift boxes with marshmallows in!!!!

pop up cards - cricut

Here are a couple of quick pop up cards using the new everyday pop up cricut cartridge. Unfortunately I am too busy to have a good play with it but having 2 nights off the show means I have been able to have a quick go with it......

biker birthday

Well I have not been blogging for ages! I have been very busy with my brothers wedding last weekend, out of town, and then busy with work again... and now I have to edit the wedding video before putting onto discs then sort the photos I took.....

I did manage to to make a quick card for some friends who had theird brothers 60th on the weekend, who obviously likes motorbikes!


Once I get the wedding stuff finished I may find time to craft again.... although I have also joined the local camera club so that is also keeping me busy..... a lot of fun too!

3D Penguin and Teddy Bear (Cannon)

I needed to get more A4 photo paper so ventured to warehouse stationery on the weekend... The HP paper I usually buy was expensive so I looked at other paper and found Cannon Matt photo paper for the same price but 30 more sheets! I don't usually print on Matt but was very pleased with the photo's I tried and how they look albeit different from glossy.

Anyway, on the pack of the cannon matt paper it had a website referring to papercraft so I checked it out and found loads of templates to make 3D items. You print them onto photo paper, cut them out, glue and fit together...

I love penguins so tried that first and really please with how it looks, thinking that was fun, I thought I would try another so printed the bear but have to say it took me ages to make this one as had more intricate pieces.... was so worth it by the time I finished tonight though! Would you believe the legs, arms and head are all moveable!!!!

They are quite large too being about 20-25cm high.

Chip and Dale Chipmunks

Here is a very simple card I made for a lady at work... Chip and Dale are made using my cricut.... So very cute!

Heart treat box

This is a treat box I made for a lady leaving work last week. Made using my cricut (which I am LOVING). I didn't have much time so quickly added the leather and embossed hearts... very simple but cute!

mountain snow skiing scrapbooking

Some more of the days creations, using up some old preprinted photos.....  On the third one, the snowy village scene was made on the cricut design studio, to merge all of the images together into one strip (for the shadow backing) then simply layered.... so easy to use up scraps too by placing the right size and different colored scraps in the right place and cutting all at once...

Scrapping

I spent most of the day scrapbooking as it is my last day off before returning to work on Monday, it's been a great holiday...
These pages are made using frame layouts I bought a few years back and never did anything with them...

click 2 canvas as seen on tv

While on holiday I saw an add on daytime tv for these click 2 canvas kits, you get 3 frames in the pack and 4 canvas sheets to print via your inkjet printer (one in case you stuff one up!). You can also use their online software to print either a two canvas split or three as per the one I made here....It's so easy and framed in a minute or two! The special offer I saw was two packs for the price of one, so I couldn't resist the bargain and am really pleased with how they turned out....
