First I share with you WORD COLLAGE:  

 In my laundry room on the wall I have this cute lil sign I created using Red Vinyl and created on my Gypsy and expression.  CUT OUT AT 11.28w X 10.76h.   I have more to add to this BUT am awaiting another cartridge to arrive to complete...


PRINCESS PARTY EVENT cartridge:  I wanted a spin on an event cartridge as in using it mainly for party planning - Here I used it for Home decor in my granddaughters room that they have in our home.


Using the Imagine Vinyl  - I used the blade and cuts at regular speeds and it cut so much nicer to work with. (only do this with the IMAGINE VINYL).

Cut at  5.4in   I hung it on the wall and added a large clear heart rhinestone with glossy essentials.  to show that you can spice up your wall art as well.

I love this font...  actually this word..     Cut out at 6.5 in.

different rhinestones and that adding Stickles to the different areas that are open and around the heart added a little extra Sparkle to this awesome crown.

adding a new product I received from my friend Erica at My Cricut Craft room and so loving these are: LIQUID PEARLS colors: white opal & petal pink    I added to the points of the crown  and then used stickles to the rest of the crown.

here to the flowers I used white opal in middle and petal pink for flower

YES, I know it looks crooked as I see it in the picture BUT I had to wait till everything is dry before moving it around ..again.....     the princesses represent my 3 granddaughters.....  literally I have a redhead age 8, brown hair age 10 and the last princess looks like my youngest grand baby girl who is 3...  I bought these at the Dollar store where everything is 1$

Both  of these images are on 2 separate walls in the room..

ROBOT PARTY event cartridge:

creating a card using a little twist  of cutting the same image out 2x at different sizes.  (keep the cuts not used for another project or a 2nd smaller card).  cut on the Imagine.
1.5 sentiment happy Birthday
4.5 frame (smaller inside frame)
5.5 (outside frame) 
cuttlebug folder from Robotz and inked over with the orange ink pad 
Imagine cartridge for the color of the paper is: Blast Off

outlined using a black marker around the tools.

Please head over to Janet's blog for more creativity!!  


I hope you will leave a comment - I read them all :)  If you take my blinkie to your blog and/or sign up for my e-mails - please let me know and then i will make sure that I take yours to mine as well and sign up too.

9 Jan LETTER B dt

Have you seen the other awesome inspirational creations from my Design team friends today? no.. you say. Well then head back to  MYCRICUTCRAFTROOM.BLOGSPOT.COM and see more...

Letter B brings today, the cartridge.. Imagine Style...  BLAST OFF and BEST FRIENDS along with using Imagine Vinyl
this is my son, Jayden's door to his room.  He thought this was so cool! they are placed exactly where he says they must be.. (he's Autistic and VERY particular)  I cut them out at 6 in each.  I changed some of the colors of the letters vs the color in the handbook of each color.

THIS is so cool.  changing the background paper and top paper (pink) layer colors and creating from BEST FRIENDS Imagine I will be putting this in a frame as soon as I can get to the store to find a frame to fit.  A present for my soon to be 10yr old granddaughter, Kiana. She is always saying this and when I saw it in the handbook - who could resist!  I created this at FULL PAGE VIEW when I created it.    I hope to have a frame by the time this posting is here...

look at how small the letters are on this mat.  IF I could change one thing about the Imagine.. WASTE OF SPACE -IT HAS!!  Jayden, my 7 yr old insisted on having a door hanger with these words.. "KNOCK BEFORE YOU COME IN"  mainly meant for his 3 yr old sister and 9 yr old girl cousin.    He wants a sign like Kiana's above but boys rule and girls drool - that's another project..  :)

LETTERS CUT AT .5IN AND DOOR HANGER CUT AT 9.5IN

created using BLAST OFF Imagine Cartridge and using Pop-Dots from CTMH.

 Well, I certainly Hope the LETTER B has brought you some inspiration of ideas!

PLEASE LEAVE A COMMENT (PLEEEEASE) AND HEAD BACK TO MYCRICUTCRAFTROOM.BLOGSPOT.COM AND CHECK OUT MY FELLOW DT FRIENDS!

Blast Off birthday card using the Imagine

I just love using my cricut Imagine!!  This awesome card and box was totally made using the Blast  Off Imagine cartridge.  I changed the color a little but nothing major.  I created the card as a base and just folded to make a card.    I inked around the edge of the card using red ink from Ctmh.   I wrote the 'hope your birthday's a blast!"  I need to invest in more stamp sets of words for boys birthdays!!
WOULD you believe I had all the measurements and they got put "somewhere"  been looking for them and just can't find them - so I am sorry for the lack of not giving info to you properly.

This box was created with all the color as seen in the Cricut Imagine Blast off.  I love this box!!  I used red twine to hold the box together.  I was surprised it didn't fully close but served the purpose of money and goodies with some tissue paper and extra careful time carrying it!  I believe the box was cut at like 9in but by the time you fold it - it becomes much smaller.
