Thankful Thursday Reminder, and Teacher Gift!

Hi Everybody!
I'd like to remind everybody that you still have 1 week to enter a project in the Thankful Thursday challenge! 

You can enter HERE. 

And here's the prize!!



So for my crafty family time this week, here is the project I made with my kids.  Their last day of school was Tuesday, so these are the presents we made for each of their teachers.

 
We made each of their teachers a 6 notecard set with holder.  These were SUPER simple: 

*Pink By Design stamp sets = Big Thoughts (outside), and Our Teachers (inside).
*Tags, Bags, Boxes, and More cartridge = matchbox.
*The DCWV Grade School mat pack was PERFECT for this project! If you don't have it, the Let's Write Background, or Notebook Paper Background from Pink By Design would also work awsome!
*I cut 1/2" off each mat stack sheet, then cut that in half.
* Each card was 3 1/2" x 5".
*Each mat was cut down 1/4".
*Cosmo Cricket paper = matchbox and my two cards




*Here's the card I made for the teachers :)





*Here's the sentiment I used on the inside:


*Here is the card my middle daughter made to go with the present. (My older daughter made one too, but she sealed the envelope before I got a picture!)
*She used the Locker Talk cartridge with the card feature.


This set was quick to put together, and something I hope the teachers can use.  Please join us in the Thankful Thursday challenge, and spend some time with your family/loved ones crafting!  TFL :o)

Flaunt It Friday Time!!!

Hi Everybody!
I love when it's my teams turn for Flaunt It Friday!!  The FIF teams are the best at showing different ways to flaunt Cricut cuts!  This time the challenge to make something with the TAGS,BAGS, BOXES & MORE cartridge and the cut choice this week is Match2 (Box), page 65.  I had never tried this cut before, I had heard it was complicated, but Joy over at Everyday Cricut did a great tutorial on this cut.  I made mine in MINUTES.  And using this beautiful Graphic45 paper I didn't have to embellish hardly at all!  So here are the details:

  • TBBM = matchbox cut @ 6"
  • Graphic45 paper
  • Stampin Up! ribbon
  • various Pink By Design sentiment stamps
  • plastic is from the Cricut cartridge packaging!







Super quick and simple, but pretty.  I'm gonna finish making some cards to go in it, and will be giving this to my mom for her birthday today!!!!  Happy Birthday Mom!!!!!!!  TFL, and don't forget to head over to Flaunt It Friday to show us the way you flaunt this cut!
