Fantabulous Cricut Challenge #314--Thanks/Thanksgiving

Welcome back to another Fantabulous Cricut Challenge blog post.  This fortnight we are challenging you to take out your Cricut and create a Thanks orThanksgiving card!  We are being sponsored by the FCCB Team who is donating a $25 Amazon Gift card!

I used the Thanksgiving cartridge (in Access subscription) to write the sentiment and cut out the pumpkin and flourish.  A cricut copper metallic marker was used to write and a Nuvo Orange Glitter Marker was used to color in the leaves and the pumpkin.

Here is my Design Space file if you would like to recreate my card.  We would love to see what you create with a cricut image.  Check out what the rest of the fabulous Design Team has to inspire you here.

I'm also entering this card into the following challenges:
     Come and Get it Challenges--Thanks/Thankful
     Pile it On--Large Sentiment
     Allsorts--Colors of Autumn
     Crafty Calendar--Colors of Autumn
     Crafty Catz--Anything Goes--no patterned paper
     Always Fun Challenges--Pumpkin

Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #209 Meets Cut it Up #120 Music Challenge

Welcome back to another Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge blog post!  This week's sketch is pretty unique and an idea didn't come to me until I saw the Music theme at Cut it Up this week.  My images were cut with the help of the Cricut Explore, Design Space and the Cindy Loo and Quarter Note cricut cartridges.

The sentiment "Music is the strongest form of MAGIC" was written with a silver metallic cricut pen. The violin was chosen as my son plays it masterfully.

Products used:
     Silver metallic paper by the Paper Cut
     Brown metallic paper by the Paper Cut
     La Vie En Rose paper--retired Close to My Heart
     Stoneware Texture stamp--retired CTMH
     White Daisy CS--CTMH
     Ruby CS--CTMH
     Whisper Ink--CTMH
     Cindy Loo cricut cartridge--floral frame panel
     Quarter Note cricut cartridge--violin, music notes

Here is the fabulous sketch that inspired my card:
