Roberts Arts & Crafts Design Team Project - Twist Easel Card

Hi Everybody!

Happily it's my turn to share my next project with you for the Robert's Art's and Crafts Design Team!  I decided to try a new fold for me, a twist easel card.  (I found the tutorial HERE.)  This was my very first attempt, and I can't believe how easy it was!  The hardest part was deciding how to embellish it!  Here are the supplies you'll need to create this card:

*Create a Critter Cricut cartridge

*Cosmo Cricket patterned paper

*DCWV shimmer paper

*twine

*brown ink to distress edges

*edge punch

*sentiment stamp (I used Pink By Design)

That's all there is to it!  I hope you like it, and try one of these for yourself. I'd love for you to leave a comment letting me know what you think. Be sure to keep checking back here, and on the Roberts blog for TONS of inspiration. See ya next time :)

Roberts Arts & Crafts Design Team Project - Cupcake Banner

Hi Everybody!

I am so super excited to share my first project with you as a Roberts Design Team member!  My oldest daughter's birthday is coming up, and she wanted to have a birthday all about sweets.  Of course cupcakes are at the top of the list, so I decided to make her a birthday banner out of cupcakes!  Well, paper cupcakes that is :)  Here are the details:

* Gypsy = used to size all the cupcakes

*Cupcakes cartridge (not available at Roberts, could 

substitute Sweet Treats cartridge) = cupcakes cut in various sizes

*Designer Double-Sided Paper Pad 12" x 12"

*Martha Stewart Glitter Glue Set 24/Pkg

*Xyron 500 Create-A-Sticker Machine

*Stickles Glitter Glue 0.5 Ounce

*In my Gypsy, I flipped my cupcake base cut.

*I then ran it through my Xyron machine.

*With adhesive side UP, all I had to do is sprinkle my Martha Stewart glitter on it.  The glitter was adhered with no mess, no fuss!

*Then to attach the fiber to hang the banner with, I just put it in between the two layers!

*I decided to use Stickles to add some sparkly dimension to each cupcake!

That's all there is to it!  I probably will cut one more cupcake to add her name to, but I think my daughter will love this banner, and I hope you do to!  I'd love for you to leave a comment letting me know what you think.  Be sure to keep checking back here, and on the Roberts blog for TONS of inspiration.  See ya next time :)
