Countdown to Christmas - 14 days!! with MCCR

Welcome back!!

OMG, only 14 more days! I better start my Christmas cards soon!! lol.

Today's theme with My Cricut Craft Room is to 

Use a Licensed Cartridge!

I have been trying to stick with a Christmas/Winter theme for this month's projects so Hello Kitty Friends was a perfect choice!

These are more gift card holders made for the office craft show using Stampin Up's Top Note Die. 

Both cricut cuts are cut at 2.5 inches. Pretty small to work with, but my holders were small. Ideally I wish these would have been closer to 3.5 inches to make it easier. The snowman wasn't bad, but hello kitty was lots of little pieces. But of course she came out wonderfully.

I hope you enjoy and this gives you some motivation to pull out the carts you forgot had Christmas stuff on them!!

So to celebrate summer, I couldn't get the idea of a bright summer sun out of my head. Here is what popped out on the paper

The ribbon is from my stash. I used QQ Powder Puff ink in Lemonade to ink the embossed panel and one of their quotes in the middle of the sun. I added some yellow stickles to make it shine!!
