December 100 Cricut Cart Blog Hop with MCCR

Welcome to My Cricut Craft Room's Monthly 100 Cartridge Blog Hop for December!!


If you got here from Mary's blog, great you are on the right track!
If not, head to My Cricut Craft Room to see all the great projects along the way!!

I had 4 cartridges to use this month. I combined them and made two projects.

For my first one, I wanted to do something Christmas since it is right around the corner


I used Teresa Collins Sophisticated and Gingerbread for this project. The scallop border is from Sophisticated (page 44, cut at 1 inch), the swirl is also from the same cartridge (cut at 2 inches). The wreath is from Gingerbread cut at 2.5 inches.

I added stickles in xmas red, green, gold and diamond to decorate my wreath. The paper is from last year's (I think) DCWV christmas mat stack.

For my other project I still needed some birthday cards so that is what I worked on!!

I used Pretty Pennants and Celebrate with Flourish for this project.
The pennants are cut from Pretty Pennants at 2 inches for the small ones and 3 inches for the large middle one. The happy birthday is from Celebrate with Flourish and was cut at 2.5 inches.
I ran the middle pennant through a cuttlebug folder and sanded the raised area. The pattern paper is from Echo Park - A Walk In The Park 6x6 paper pack. I inked everything in Quick Quotes Powder Puff Ink in Pink Cheeks.

Well I hope that inspires you to get out your cricut and start creating!!

Your next stop on the hop is my DT sister Teresa!!! 
Wait til you see what she has in store for you!

Have a great weekend!!

Here is the full line up in case you get lost along the way!!

Past Christmas Mornings with My Cricut Craft Room

Hope everyone is over their Turkey-coma today and got some great deals on black friday shopping!

Today with My Cricut Craft Room, our theme was past Christmas mornings.

I pulled out a DCWV christmas stack (I have 3 of them so I am not sure which year this one is from) and I saw this LOVE piece that I knew I wanted to use. 

I went through the past 3 years of Christmas photos and found that this is the ONLY picture of both my boyfriend and I on a Christmas day. So sad. So I have made sure to tell him we must get a picture of the two of us on Christmas morning this year.



I used Gingerbread to make my garland. They are all cut at 2inches. I love making the little guy and girl hold hands :)

Add some twine (in Maraschino and Peapod) and that was it! I love how this turned out and how quick and easy it was! This will be the front page in a Christmas album. I think I am going to do all my Christmas photos in one year arranged by year.

I hope you enjoyed my page!
