Gift Tags

It's time for another Cooking With Cricut Challenge!!! This time our challenge is to create gifts, gift tags, or cards. I thought this would be a great time to use the Imagine so I could make a lot of tags in a short amount of time. Christmas Wish has a page full of tags and they are all cute. I cut the page at 10.6 inches and this is what I got.
All of the tags in the photo were on one sheet of cardstock. I even messed up 2 of them so there were more than this. The only thing not on the same sheet is the little box.

Here is a close up of the little box. It's perfect to fill with Christmas candy or treats.


Here are a few more of the tags. All I had to do is add some ribbon and some stickles.

This pink tag with the ornaments was a little big, but I thought it was perfect for a mini Christmas card.


I loved the patterns and the colors of this cartridge and it was really quick to make some great tags!

Deck the Halls

It's time for another Paper Crafting World Challenge! This time our theme is Deck the Halls and we were challenged to create an ornament. I saw a great post on one of the cricut blogs about using a mini pillow box as a little shadow box ornament and thought I would give it a try. I cut the pillow box from wrap it up at 7.5 inches and flood filled it with a fun pattern from Christmas Wish on my Imagine. I then cut an opening out of the front with a nestability. I colored these adorable little kitties in winter attire digital stamp with my copic markers. These little guys are just too cute!! I put the kitties on the back of the pillow box with some pop dots. I then added a poinsettia and a handle so I could hang it on the tree. If I had more time I would have made the inside of the box a different pattern so you could see the dimension more, but my Imagine mat was sticky and kept cutting my blue rectangle in half so this was the best solution I could come up with.

We would love for you to play along with us at www.cookingwithcricut.com and don't forget to check out our 25 days of Christmas celebration with new posts every day in December!
