Cricut Capers

I haven't played along with the Heart2Heart Challenge blog in a while... so I'm happy to be playing along this week :o)  This week's challenge is to use one of the CTMH Cricut cartridges, and I have a cute Halloween card made with the Close To My Heart Artfully Sent Cricut cartridge, and Art Impressions' Be Scary Set:

I love this spider web card base - and it was so quick to put together, the Cricut cut the entire black card base, so all I had to do was adhere some patterned paper behind the spider web, and then glued my cute little trick-or-treater on top (I popped her up with some pop dots).

Patterned papers are Frightful by My Mind's Eye; Stamp set is Be Scary Set (Sku #4521) by Art Impressions; Ink is Memento Tuxedo Black; Copic Markers; Sequins are Glimmer Glam by Craft Medley.

Artfully Sent Christmas Card

My first ever design team gig was with the Heart 2 Heart Challenge blog - and I haven't played along in a while, so I'm happy to be joining their first November challenge, especially since my niece Allie is the hostess!  This month is all about "NO" on H2H, and this week is "NO stamping".  Lucky for me, I've purchased the newest CTMH Cricut cartridge, Artfully Sent which has about a zillion die cuts especially for card making.  Here's what I came up with:

I used some older CTMH Christmas paper from the Believe pack, along with Grey Wool & Sky cardstock.  I cut the Noel pocket card at 3", popped it up on some pop dots, and put a piece of silver glitter paper under it.  I die cut a few white and glitter snowflakes, and glued them on with a bunch of sparkles.  So there you have my NO stamping card!
