Get Organized Cricut Crawl

Hello everyone and welcome to the Get Organized Cricut Crawl hosted by Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Blog

You should have arrived from Cicily's blog, Pink Dalmatians Scrapbooker. If you just happened to stop by make sure you start HERE! You don't want to miss a thing :-) 

For my project today I decorated a tin can to store my washi tape. 
My collection of washi tape is small so this is why it worked for me lol 

I just used an scrap paper, a few stickers and the All Mixed Up cartridge
Look around your home to find hidden gems :-) 
The banner shapes are actually stickers from Echo Parks Hello Summer Kit. 
  The lined paper is from DCWV's Vintage paper stack. 
I welded the words "Washi" and "Tape" 
-sorry for the picture, my Gypsy screen is a teeny bit dirty hehe  
 I rotated the words to fit into my scrap paper. 

Your next stop is Diana over at Daisylove Creations

Hi Friend CD case

Hello, hello ♥ 

 Over at Joy's Life Design Team blog we will be showing you many Glittery & Bright Color projects! I decided to decorate one of Joy's CD cases. My friend is going on a road trip so I thought it would be a great idea to give her a mix tape in this decorated CD case holder. 
The sentiment is from Joy's Life All Around Sentiments stamp set. 
It fit perfectly in one of Echo Park's circle stickers. The scallop circle, flag, camera, and snap shot stickers are from the Echo Park's Everyday Eclectic kit. 
The yellow chevron pattern paper is from Echo Park's Hello Summer kit. 
The crinkle ribbon is from 3 Girl Jam. I just love it! It's from their Season bundle, I'm not exactly sure of the name, but I believe it's Summer Sprinkles. 

Don't forget to stop by Joy's Life DT blog all week to see different bright and glittery projects! 

Have a fun, crafty day!

Holiday Treats

Happy Monday everyone! This week you will be seeing the design team over at Joy's Life  show you different tips and techniques. The technique I used is dry embossing with ink. I saw Joy use this a long time ago and finally got around to using it! You can see it HERE

Here is my candy tube. :-) 

I made the tags with my corner chompers. 
 I inked one side of the embossing folder. 
 It comes out with a distressed look. 
Here is the treat holder again. 
 The sentiment is from the Wintery Puns stamp set, an oldie but a goodie. 
 Aren't these tubes perfect for holding candy? You can find them at Joy's store, just click Craft Containers. 
To see all of Joy's stamps and products click HERE.

Thank you for stopping by!
