More .... National Papercrafting Month

I just have to share this with you.
This is a cute little bag using the Cricut Artiste and the  "Whooo's Your Valentine" incredible deal, celebrating National Papercrafting Month.
This is a design by a fellow CTMH consultant, Melinda Everett.



This darling little bag is cut out of Ruby Cardstock from the Cricut Artiste Cartridge.  You can find it on pg 56 of the Cricut Artiste handbook.  It is the Shift cut at 4 inches.  She wanted a white doily look so she decided to heat emboss the doily part of the bag with Versamark and White Embossing Powder.  Here is how it looks right after she had heat embossed it.
Melinda used post-it notes to mask off the doily part of the box and then just rubbed the Versamark pad over that part.  She then removed the post-it notes and poured the white embossing powder over the doily part.  Then she heat embossed it.  I love the look.  (Hope you do too!)
Take a look at her cute owl.  She inked up the bottom part of the owl in Ruby Ink and the top part in Archival Black.  I think the owl is so cute!  She cut the scallop shape on the Cricut from the Silver Glitter paper that came in this kit.  The shape is from the Cricut Art Philosophy and it was cut at 1.75 inches.  How cool that the glitter paper can be cut on the Cricut! (And you will see the glitter paper will be sold in the newest Spring/Summer catalogue.)
Here is a look at her little owl cluster.  The black bow was cut  from the Cricut Artiste cartridge, pg 55, at 5 inches.  She finished her owl off with 2 red sparkles.  Loving all of the glitter and sparkles!  It's all about the BLING! 


Here is one more picture of her owl gift bag.  
See how much fun it is to try something new and creative?
