Easter Friends Shaped Cricut Card

-
Hello!  For today's card I used my Create-a-Critter cartridge and my SCAL software to cut out a shaped card and these cute li’l “Easter animals”!


I drew some faces and doodling on them based on some I had seen online. 



 This card fits the "Cooking With Cricut" challenge which is EASTER!  
And the Fantabulous Cricut Challenge is to Use an Egg!

Hope you’re having a blessed Easter Sunday today with your families!!

Kris, these are both awesome projects. I love the faces you doodled on the little animals. So adorable. I've never done an svg file, so I don't know how hard they are to do, but I am proud of you for figuring it out. Way to go girl !!! I hope you have a wonderful blessed week.

Wow, I am so impressed. I do have a question though. When you checked out *how to make an svg file*, which program did you download and how did you get it to work with your cricut? I have tried to download SCAL but it comes up with imfo about it not being allowable now, but people who downloaded it before provocraft stopped it. I really, want to be able to use svg files with my Cricut expression so am really, sweet please with cherries on top, want to learn exactly how to do this :-)

Kris...both projects are wonderful. Love the cutesie word art project and those adorable little critters. But I'm totally fascinated with your SVG discussion. I'd love to see a tutorial too on how you did it. I have the Cricut and software, but don't really know how it all works, but I've wanted to know for a long time. You did GREAT for your first one! A beautiful card!!

Tutorial - Box Cards W/O Dies

 Hello again!  I'm back with 2 more box cards using some brand new stamps and dies from the upcoming SU! Holiday mini catalog & SAB and a tutorial on how you can make these without using special dies! First I'll show you a card that uses special dies that make it super quick & easy to create the basic box base to showcase all your fun images, and then I will show you how you can make a very similar card without using the dies.  This is a fun new stamp set featured in the upcoming SU! Holiday Mini Catalog called "Penguin Place" - I bought the bundle, so it has a punch that goes with it to punch out the sitting/standing penguin outline, the white inner piece, and the feet.  I had to fussy cut the trees, gifts, hats & scarves and the sliding penguin.  This is one set I wish they had made a die set to match for all those smaller pieces.   The Box base is created with dies by  My Favorite Things  called " Outside the Box Level Up Die-namics ".  My

Pop Up Flip Card - Interactive Paper Pumpkin Alternative

Today's card was inspired by several I've seen recently on Pinterest and Youtube and it's one I hadn't tried yet, so I created one with February's Paper Pumpkin kit called, "Bouquet of Hope." These are super simple to make but yet has that "wow" factor for your recipient.  This is one I will definitely come back to again and again. Here's a view from the side.  It does have a box-y mechanism and a li'l flap that helps the oval POP when you open it.  The mechanism is a piece cut at 3" x 4" and scored along the 4" side at 1", 2", and 3".  The li'l tab on top is cut at 2 1/4" x 3/4" and scored at 1 1/4".  If you prefer to watch a video, Dawn has an excellent one here .    ♥ ♥ ♥ Stamps:  SU! - February 2021 Paper Pumpkin kit: Bouquet of Hope; Butterfly Gala Dies & Punches:  SU! - Butterfly Duo punch; Stitched Shapes Dies Paper:  SU! - Flower & Field (SAB Jan-Feb 2021); Poppy Parade, &am
