25 Days of Cricut Day 2

Good morning everyone,

Thank you for stopping by for day 2 of our 25 days of Cricut holiday fun! So let’s get right to it!

Here is a layout I created using the new Inspired Hearts Cartridge.

Here is a close up shot of the nativity cut that is on this cartridge. I cut it out on plain white paper and then the shadow on black. I used glimmer mist and inks to give it the distressed/vintage look. The pictures don’t show the soft, subtle shimmer of the glimmer mist and the metallic gold ink. It is very pretty in person :-)

Here is a close up shot of the Jesus title that is also on this cartridge.

Here is a close up shot of the Printable Stamp – Title block I made.

Okay, I can’t leave those of you who have your cutter but don’t have the cartridges out, 

so I created a “version of this layout with cutting files I created.

For the sake of time, I used the same layout, I just switched out the cutting files. Here is a view of the entire layout with “my version” of cuts.

Here is a close up shot of the nativity cutting file I created. I cut it in white and black paper and employed the same techniques as described earlier to give it the aged – vintage look.

Here is my version of the title. I started with a font called “fancy” and then I added my own 

touches so that it more closely resembled the Cricut cut.

Then I had cut all the cuts in smaller versions and created cards out of the same style cuts and used the “left over” paper to create these cards to they would have a similar look to the layouts.

Here is the Cricut – Inspired Heart Card

Here is “My Version” card

Well, I hope you enjoyed the projects today. Today I am gifting you the Jesus and Nativity cut files I created…PLUS the Digi Stamp Title Block :-) May the abundant blessing of the almighty fill your hearts this joyous Christmas Season. May the true meaning of the Season be your compass and guiding light today and each day He gives!  Many Christmas Blessings,
