Cartridge Showcase: Baby Boutique
Hey Everyone!
Welcome to another Cartridge Showcase! I hope you all had a great weekend and maybe even got in some crafting!
Hi Crafty Friends,
Today my cartridge showcase if with one of my all time favorite cartridges, the Teresa Collins Imagine Baby Boutique cartridge. I absolutely love anthing Teresa Collins and her cartridges are all my favorites! I love this cartridge because it's so versatile. You do not need to use it for baby projects, although it would work perfectly on those if you'd like.
My three projects that I made with this cartridge were for my daughter's birthday party back in July.
For the first project, I decided to make a banner, I love banners and I also love to hang them by our fireplace for my children's special day. I like for them to have a little something extra around the house to celebrate their birthdays. For this banner I took the scalloped image from the baby boutique cartridge, printed it out large without the crown(around 4"), then cut out the letters with the Storybook cartridge. The little crowns were also cut out using Baby Boutique.

The second project was also made for the party, I made little cupcake toppers with the same scalloped circle and crown as the banner but in a much smaller size. These were so easy to make! I just filled the page on my Imagine, print and cut them, then used a glue dot to adhere them toothpicks and stuck them into the cupcakes. Super easy and so cute to do! The top one was an image I used from her invites HERE, with a Barbie Image and that was the theme of the party.
The third project from the party was these cute little wings with hearts I print and cut from the Baby Boutique cartridge to use for the treat bags. Again, super easy! I just print and cut, then stamped Thank you onto them, stapled them to the cute bags and was done.

Here's a photo of Teresa and I from a class I took that she did recently here. She was so sweet and I was so honored to meet her! She is just the best. If you haven't had a chance to check out her products, you definetly should. Her designs are classic yet very much fit with the current styles.
Thank you for checking out my post today, I hope you will come visit me at my blog today as well!
That must have been one FUN party! And what a lucky little girl! If you want to throw an awesome party like Chef Jessica, head on over to her blog!

Cartridge Showcase: Autumn Celebrations
Welcome to Cooking With Cricut's Monday Cartridge Showcase! If you've not joined us before for a showcase and are wondering what it's all about . . . our Designers choose a Cricut cartridge and show you different things they've created. Which we hope will inspire you to get out your cartridge and perhaps use it in a different or new way. Today Chef Olivia is showcasing the Autumn Celebrations cartridge.
It is that time again to showcase another fabulous Cricut Cartridge for Cooking with Cricut. One of my all-time favorite cartridges is Autumn Celebrations. I love the Fall and this cart has such great Fall themed images and card shapes!
The first up is a Fall wall hanging I did. I had some hay left over from an old scarecrow, so I decided to use that on the border. I cut out the sentiment at 5 inches and used some retired papers I had from CTMH in my stash. The flowers have been in my stash, too.
The Sentiment says "12345 Count Your Blessings." The wall hanging is 8x8.
Next up is a card I made for Halloween. Though I am not into scary things, I do adore Halloween but more of the cutesy stuff from it. I used a monster and sentiment from Autumn Celebrations. Isn't this one of the cutest monsters you ever seen!
The final item is a scrapbook layout of some Halloween and Pumpkin Picking pictures I had of my two oldest children. I used the phrase "Witching Hour" and cut it at 2 1/2" and the other is a tag that says "Trick or Treat".
I hope you enjoyed my showcase and thanks for taking the time to see my work.
Crafty Hugz! ~ Olivia
