All About the Cricut

Archive for the ‘Cricut Projects’ Category

Hi, Everyone! Shantaie Fowler here! As far as I’m concerned the only thing better than attending a birthday party is making cute projects for a birthday celebration! I adore parties of all kinds, but there is
something extra special about parties for little ones. Perhaps it’s because I first discovered my love for crafting while planning my oldest daughters first birthday so many years ago. I sure wish I would have had a Cricut Expression 2 Machine to help me back then! I may have planned a party just like this one!

Hi again everyone! Ginger Williams with you today to share a Cricut Imagine idea with you. I was super excited to work on some birthday ideas for this weeks theme as birthday parties are one of my favorite reasons for having a Cricut! There is just so much of a party that you can do yourself and customize with a Cricut. I used my Cricut Imagine Machine to make these little birthday party favors for a little girl’s birthday party. They were easy to make in the colors I wanted thanks to the Imagine and the really great paper choices on the Imagine Elise Cartridge!

I started out with a simple square box with a folding lid from the Wrap It Up cartridgeand then paired it with a present cut from the Creative Memories ‘Tis The Season Cartridge–I used theImagine Elise Cartridge on one side of my machine and the Cricut cartridge on the other side of my Cricut Imagine Machine to fill in each shape before cutting. After adding a little embossing with my Cuttlebug Machine and the Juli’s Garden embossing folderI glued the present cut onto the front of my box. A matching white cut of the first layer of the present went on the back of the box to add to the “shaped box” feel of the project.
