Fantabulous Cricut Back to School Cricut Crawl!!!!

Welcome to Redheaded Crafter and the EIGHTH Fantabulous Cricut Crawl...Fantabulous Cricut's version of a Blog Hop!

Summer is coming to an end and we are all getting ready for BACK TO SCHOOL...each Design Team member will be featuring an original BACK TO SCHOOL Project that includes a SCHOOL RELATED  Item, such as crayons, rulers, pencils, book, school bus, etc. along with at least ONE Cricut Cut.

I am the first stop on the hop!!!   If you've just happened across my blog and would like to play along with our Fantabulous Cricut Crawl, start HERE

Make sure to check out each DT member's blog for some awesome inspiration! There will be PRIZES along the way at our DT members' blogs, AND there will be a Grand Prize up for grabs at FCCB for one participant that submits a "Back to School" project at FCCB!

How fun is that?

  

Here's my project....

Hoot 'n' Holler- heart cut at 1.12"

Back to School Treat

Hello there everyone!!!  Our challenge at Joy's Life this week is to create a Back to School themed project...  As you know, that is a theme that is very near and dear to my heart!  I have really been wanting to make a project using one of the mini paint cans that Joy sells on her website...  It's the cutest darn thing ever!!!!  I love miniatures, so this paint can just made me smile before it was even decorated!  :)  I also love chocolate, so I filled this can with Hershey's Hugs...  I know all of the teachers in my grade level love chocolate too, so this would be the perfect gift!  Once the teacher is done with the candy, he/she can fill it up with whatever they wish...  Such as: paper clips, popsicle sticks, stickers, etc...  

Fabulous Finds- clipboard cut at 2.76"
Hoot 'n' Holler- heart cut at 1.12"
Joy's Life Stamps- Holiday Occasions
Mini paint can from Joy's Life
Patterned paper around can is 2" wide

Hope you enjoyed my Back to School project!  Thanks so much for stopping by!!!!  :)

MPS Pinkalicious Blog Hop- Back to School

Hello everyone!  I am so proud of myself for posting 2 days in a row!!! :)  Before I get to my project for today, I want to say a huge "thank you" to Diana @ http://dianamlarson.blogspot.com/ for passing the Butterfly Blog Award to me!!!!  Her blog is amazing, she is a wonderful bloggy friend, and I really do appreciate her thinking of me!  Check out her blog, you'll be happy that you did!  Thanks again Diana!!! :)  Okay...  I wanted to make sure that I was able to get in on the MPS Pinkalicious Blog Hop this month, but it took me a while to come up with an idea...  The challenge was to create something with a school theme, BUT it couldn't be a card or scrapbook page...  You all know that I LOVE making cards, so this was a chance to think outside the box... and that's exactly what I made:  a box!  This is a treat box you can fill with goodies and pass it out to other teachers (co-workers), your child's teacher, etc...  I love the little miniature clipboard on this and that cut is actually the reason I bought the Fabulous Finds cartridge!  :)  Here it is....

Beaver Birthday Invitation

Hi everyone!  I can't believe how fast this month is flying by!!!!  Next Sunday will be my last day as a Guest Designer on 365 Cards.  It has been fun!!! :)   I'm working on the last sketch, but for now here is the next one...

I had been wanting to use that ticket stamp badly, so I thought why not use it for an invitation!  On the inside you could write all of the info. needed for the party....  Hope you enjoy!  :)
