National Baking Month - Fantabulous Cricut

Ellis had a Monster Bash for his birthday party and Mini Monsters came in very handy for the cakes, the banner, the birthday hats and the invitations!

With the extra fondant we just fooled around with some other things.

 

These two cakes are made using the giant cupcakes pan, I used the top to make a beehive cake and the bottom to make a whimsical cake. I tried out the bee on both cakes just for fun, but the best part was eating them. 

 

I don't have a cricut cake so I cut out the pieces I wanted and traced around them on the fondant.  I also used a punch for some of the circles if I could get the fondant thin enough.  

Join us at Fantabulous Cricut for our National Baking Month challenge, cook up something of your own.

Card for Monique

I have really enjoyed being a Cricut Card Fairy.  I've done over 300 missions so far and I feel more blessed to do them, than the people who receive them.  There are several get well drives going on right now for Monique (Breast Cancer) and for Bella (Streptococcus) , I made a couple of cards for them  and I made a card just to make me happy.  So, I'm going to share them with you. 

Sending You A Smiley

Monster Hello

I got my new Mini Monsters Cartridge this week and have been playing with it a lot!  There are many Halloween type cuts on this cartridge, but I also like it for the little kid type fun cuts.  I did this Monster Hello..... Monster Smile..... Monster Hugs card which will be really good for a kid.  Counts for one of my new folds for a card too!!

Mini Monsters cut at 2"
Tags cut at 3"
Lyrical Letters cut at 1.5"
Stash papers
Distressed with Cat Eye liquid chalks
Faux stitching with Sig gel pens.

Cut the front of a regular card by slicing it about halfway down.  Then taking the remainder slice to make the other sideways pocket which formed two pockets on the front of the card.  The tags are actually the tombstones on the Mini Monsters cartridge, punched a hole, added the ribbon and the heart brads.   Covered the back with the coordinating paper and a rounded rectangle and wah lah, a monster card, with a monster hello, a monster smile and monster hugs!
