Cricut Artiste Giraffe Bear Piecing Layout

Good morning crafty friends,
I hope you are having a great start to your week thus far. Today I am sharing a layout I created over the weekend using the Cricut Artiste Cartridge. While the majority of my posts have not been “cricut” related, I don’t want those of you who use your Cricut and Cartridges to think that we no longer share Cricut-Related projects. I will definitely still be sharing them. Plus Monday’s used to be days in which we would share Cartridge Showcases, so I thought it would be a good idea to still share Cricut projects on Mondays too. Anyway, let’s get started.

So Adorable Cricut Artiste Layout

Here is my layout. All the cuts on this spread were created using the Cricut Artiste Cartridge. Yep, that’s right…even the bear and the Giraffe.
I did NOT use my Gypsy, Design Studio or Craft Room. These are what I call “Straight Cricut Cuts”.

I used only my Expression and the Artiste Cartridge.  I love challenging myself to try and “find” a cute little critter within the pages of the handbook. It is a challenge that allows me to try and express myself without being limited to what I plainly see in front of me….to think outside the box…er….in this case the cut…rofl Smile

Here’s a closer look at the pretty flowers. I cut them in a “sunshiney” orange and in the pink patterned paper from my DCWV Baby Girl Stack.

I used the following products to complete this project
