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

100th Cooking With Cricut Challenge!!



Welcome to Cooking With Cricut’s very special SURPRISE “Thank You” Blog Hop and Challenge. Why is it so special?  There are several reasons!  The first reason -- it is our 100th Cooking With Cricut challenge; the second is to thank our wonderful leader and “Master Chef” Melinda Beltran; and finally, to thank YOU!  Thank you for supporting and encouraging us with your visits, kind words and for playing along with our weekly challenges and hops.  We love crafting with you!  

Melin started Cooking With Cricut challenges in October 2010 to encourage crafters to find new and different ways to use their Cricut cartridges.  And she has accomplished that and so much more!  She has given scores of crafters a place on her Design Teams which quickly turned into a sisterhood of women who care for and encourage each other; who lift each other and their families up in prayer; and who have shared their hearts and their art through many outreach projects.  And I know there are so many of you out there that have been touched by her words, her art and her generous spirit as well!

So this is our SURPRISE “Thank You” tribute to our beloved Melin! There are 21 Design Team members offering up their heartfelt thanks to our "Master Chef" -- make sure you travel through to each of their blogs.  You won’t want to miss any of these awesome creations!!

I created a very special CWC Top Chef Award for Melin . . .
I used the Cricut Decal cartridge for the Cricut Chef and SCAL for the text.

Thanks so much for hopping with us.  We hope you’ll join us and leave a “thank you” in the comment section for Melin and link-up your own "Thank You" card!  (You could be our next "Top Chef!")  Here are some guidelines:

  • Must follow the challenge topic.
  • Must be a NEW project for this challenge, please no back dated posts.
  • Must have a link back to this post on your blog. 
  • Must link your project through Inlinkz and not just your blog. 
  • Must use your Cricut in some capacity.
  • Must have fun!
  • You may gladly combine challenges . . . we love to pile it on TOO!

Now it’s time for you to head on over to see Madison at Funky Cards – she’s the next stop on this party train!

Jen
