Sleigh Treat Holder

 

 More fun with my Cricut!

The sleigh above is a file that comes from SVGCuts and is part of the Santa's Visit SVG Kit.  The kit includes the cutting files to create 6 different projects, great value.




I made the sleigh itself from Kraft card, and decorated with patterned paper by Kaisercraft.  The project comes together quickly and easily, and I can definitely see myself making a lot of these as treat holders.

Sharing this project with Make It Monday where it's always  Anything Goes!

Thanks for looking :o)

Postage Stamp Card

 

I finally have my camera back and can start blogging about the new things I have been making since getting my Cricut.  I love having a digital die cutting machine, and am already looking at purchasing another with a larger mat and greater functionality.  So far I am leaning towards the Silhouette Cameo as it is compatible with programmes like SCUT, doesn't require cartridges, and Silhouette have a massive online store with thousands of individual svg files for purchase.

First up is a sweet little card with a postage stamp edge that I created to be suitable for either male or females.  Myy partner is from the States and I thought this would make a good general themed card for him to send back home for various occasions. 

The postage stamp edge is a file that comes from SVGCuts and is part of the Santa's Visit SVG Kit.

 

The card is created from plain white card to emulate a regular postage stamp, and the I aged the edges inside and out with Antique Linen Distress Ink.  The postcards are taken from a paper by Kaisercraft which have been roughed up with a paper distressing tool, and the sweet little bear is from Teddy Bo, and he has been coloured with Copic pens. 

I am entering this into the Teddy Bo Challenge this fortnight, the theme of which is 'distress it'.
