Cartridge Showcase: Disney Dreams Come True



Welcome to Cooking With Cricut's Monday Cartridge Showcase!  We hope you all had a wonderful, crafty weekend!  Chef Jenny J. (aka Crazyaboutcricut) has taken over the blog today and is sharing one of  her favorite cartridges -- an oldie. but goodie -- Disney's Dreams Come True.

The cartridge features Disney Princesses Ariel, Belle, Jasmine and Pocahontas and  includes: Flesh/Hair, Outfit/Outfit, White/Extra, Icon, Base/Icon, and Charm creative features.

So without further ado . . . here's Jenny!


Hi Everybody!

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE all the Disney cartridges.  Even though they can be challenging, they are SO worth it! 

My daughter recently had an Ariel-themed birthday party.  Whenever my kids want a theme that I can cut with my Cricut, I'm so happy!  It saves money, and shopping time :O)  For my first project, I want to share the perfect banner I was able to make for her using the Dreams Come True Disney Princess cartridge:








For my second project I made this card using this elephant that is only two layers!  One of my favorite things about this (and all Disney carts) is the Icon feature. These are still in a Disney style, but are A LOT easier to put together. 




 My last project is another card again using the Icon feature.  A simple two layer cut, some doodling, a sentiment and you have a card you can make in minutes!


 
Super cute projects, Jenny!  Looks like your daughter had a wonderful birthday!!  Please check out the details on Jenny's blog and make sure to leave her a comment letting her know how much you liked her showcase.


Check back in tomorrow, Tuesday, February 28th for a PaperCraftingWorld.com Design Team challenge and Wednesday, February 29th for a CookingWithCricut.com Design Team challenge.  These will be the last challenges with the current teams -- so make sure you stop by and give 'em some love and a shout out!  (Our new Design Teams will be introduced the following week.)

Cartridge Showcase: Imagine - Greeting Cards Inside & Out



Welcome to Cooking with Cricut's Thursday cartridge showcase. Chef Mindy is taking over the blog today and sharing one of Cricut's newest Imagine cartridges -- Greeting Cards Inside and Out.

You will always have the perfect card on hand with this cartridge! It is filled with cards for birthdays, births, engagements, weddings, and a variety of other occasions. You will also adore the ready-to-make projects and cheerful patterns on this cartridge. Design, print, and cut together to take all of your creative projects to the next level.  It features 50 layered images; includes 20 patterns and a color palette; and contains ready-to-make projects and 10 icons.

So without further ado, here's Mindy . . .




Welcome to another Cooking With Cricut cartridge showcase. This cartridge is full of adorable shaped cards for all occasions as well as envelopes, gift bags, and paper patterns. For my first card, I made this adorable little chicken soup Get Well card.





I cut the card first and then went back and cut another one of the chicken medallions and pop dotted that up off the card. The cool thing about this cartridge is that there is a sentiment to put on the inside of every design. Here is the inside of my get well card: 




My next card is a retro inspired birthday card in the shape of a cassette tape.



The sentiment on the inside looks like one of the extra labels that came with the cassettes so you could label them. I may be showing my age with this one!


My next card is an Elvis thank you card.  I was in Vegas last month, so I loved this card as soon as I saw it. 


I added some gold stickles to Elvis' suit to give him some bling.  I love the inside of this card!  The sentiment is in the shape of the famous "Welcome to Las Vegas" sign. 



For my last card, I wanted to do something a little different.  Instead of making another one of the shaped cards, I used one of the extra elements to make a traditional card.  I printed a square of the yellow chevron striped paper to use as my background and then cut the little fries and ketchup to add to the front.  I love their little faces. 


I hope you have enjoyed my Greeting Cards Inside and Out cartridge showcase.
