Circle Christmas/Winter Tag Swap

I'm a glutton for punishment....I signed up for the Christmas card, recipe and now the tag swap.  YIKES - it sure has kept me busy.

I definately not a tag maker and even though I couldn't think of anything else to do, this tag will have to do...since I needed 20 of them and they need to be mailed by Nov 21 (2 days from now).

I used the cricut-imagine snow angel cartridge for the background papers.  The tag itself is from Winter Frolic.  The stocking is from CTMH-Art Philosophy.  Inks for the stocking are from Stampin up (wild wasabi & rose red).  I used a Sizzix embossing folder and added color dots with copic markers.  I put dots of glossy accents on the "dots" on the stocking band and a few dabs of stickles on the foot part of the stocking.  The stocking is popped up too.  Ribbon from Michaels.

Anyway, I hope you (and the swappers) like it.

Cricut Circle Christmas Recipe layout Swap

I wasn't going to sign up for this challenge, but I thought it would be nice to get some new recipes and having them on interesting layouts was a bonus.  Since I was done the Christmas card swap...I did sign up for this one.  I had to make 20 of the following layouts.


Cricut cartridges used: background (Elegant edges); file card (From my Kitchen); Title (Quarter Note); Trees (Winter Frolic).  Everything was inked on the edge in brown (including the white background..  The dot on the 'i' is a gem.  The small tree is popped up.

2011 Christmas Card Swap

On the Cricut Circle, a bunch of Canadians (and a few Americans) decided to have a Christmas card swap.  We were each to 1card for each participant...so I made 20 of these (actually, ended up making another 55 for our large list of people that get Christmas cards.

Cartridges used:  Base snowflake (Winter Woodland); small snowflake (Winter Lace); tag (Art Philosophy).  Glitter is Martha Stewart and ribbon is just plain white ribbon from Michael's.  Corners are by Corner Chomper (ticket stub).  Small snowflake was popped up (hard to see).  Also used cuttlebug snowflake folder for main aqua piece.

Mini albums revisited


I adjusted the covers (added flowers) from flower shoppe AND from my cuttlebug flower cutter.
