CWC Cartridge Showcase (Teresa Collins Baby Boutique)

Today my cartridge showcase is with one of my all time favorite cartridges, the Teresa Collins Imagine Baby Boutique cartridge.  I absolutely love anthing Teresa Collins and her cartridges are all my favorites!  I love this cartridge because it's so versatile.  You do not need to use it for baby projects, although it would work perfectly on those if you'd like.

My three projects that I made with this cartridge were for my daughter's birthday party back in July. 

For the first project, I decided to make a banner, I love banners and I also love to hang them by our fireplace for my children's special day.  I like for them to have a little something extra around the house to celebrate their birthdays.  For this banner I took the scalloped image from the baby boutique cartridge, printed it out large without the crown(around 4"), then cut out the letters with the Storybook cartridge.  The little crowns were also cut out using Baby Boutique.

 The second project was also made for the party, I made little cupcake toppers with the same scalloped circle and crown as the banner but in a much smaller size.  These were so easy to make!  I just filled the page on my Imagine, print and cut them, then used a glue dot to adhere them toothpicks and stuck them into the cupcakes.  Super easy and so cute to do!  The top one was an image I used from her invites, with a Barbie Image as that was the theme of the party.  

 This is the Barbie Image, the frame around Barbie and the crowns are from Baby Boutique

The third project from the party was these cute little wings with hearts I print and cut from the Baby Boutique cartridge to use for the treat bags.  Again, super easy!  I just print and cut, then stamped Thank you onto them, stapled them to the cute bags and was done.

Here's a photo of Teresa and I from a class I took that she did recently here.  She was so sweet and I was so honored to meet her!  She is just the best.  If you haven't had a chance to check out her products, you definetly should.  Her designs are classic yet very much fit with the current styles. 

Thanks for stopping by today and be sure to stop by CWC to take part in the latest challenges.

Jen's Birthday Blog Hop

Hi all! Happy Saturday! It's a beautiful day to celebrate a birthday!! Happy, Happy Birthday Jen!!

If you arrived here from Natt at http://www.tinynatt.blogspot.com/ then you are in the right place! If you want to enjoy this hop from the beginning, you can go to Melin's blog at http://www.cookingwithcricut.com/2012/06/jens-birthday-hop-day-1.html.  The theme of today's hop is to celebrate Jen's birthday! Here's a  photo of  invitations I made recently to celebrate my daughter's 6th birthday.  She wanted a Barbie theme so I used the Forever Young cartridge to get the head image and then my Teresa Collins Baby Boutique for the frame.

For this one I also used Forever Young and then baby boutique for the wings.  The white part is where I printed the details.  (I blurred out a few personal items:))

The really cool thing I did with these invitations is printed out my own patterned paper on my Imagine using the Black and White cartridge!  I used pink paper and took the polka dot pattern, along with the animal print and printed it on top of the pink!  I love how it came out!

Thanks for stopping by!  Happy Crafting!

More Disney Autograph Books

Well it's been 5 days since we've been back from Disney and I think I've finally recovered!  Ha, ha!  Before we left for Disney I actually had someone request me to make autograph books for her kids after seeing my post on the books I made for my nieces, click here to check it out.  I was so excited to have a paying order for something I made!  I wanted to make sure everything was perfect so she and I emailed back and forth on what she wanted and here is what we came up with.

This one was for her son.  I cut out the goofy image from the Cricut Mickey and Friends, using my Imagine to print out the colors, and the frame I think is from Mickey and Friends as well.  The words Easton are from the Cricut Mickey Font cartridge.  All the background papers are from my stash.  The book was bound using my Cinch.

 Here is the inside. I put 40 pages in there to be sure they had enough room for autographs and photos:)

 This was for her little girl.  All paper was printed using my Imagine and the Cricut Imagine Teresa Collins Baby Boutique Cartridge.  Princess Aurora was cut from the Disney Princess Happily Ever After cartridge and the colors were printed using my Imagine.  Here daughters name was cut using Mickey and Friends again.

 Crown paper from the Cricut Imagine Teresa Collins Baby Boutique Cartridge.

 This inside pattern is also from Cricut Imagine Teresa Collins Baby Boutique Cartridge.

Thanks for stopping by!  I had so much fun making these books and I hope the kids have a blast using them at Disney.
