MCCR WYEGW Create a Critter pg 25 - Harmony's bday card

My Cricut Craft Room Would You Ever Guess Wednesday.. today we're to make a project using page 25 of Create A Critter.. thats the page with the owl and apple.

I made this super cute birthday Card for my now 1 year old Harmony.. she had a forest theme party. I cut the owl base in black, and the top in pink. I inked the wings and tummy of the owl white (so it looks more like gray) and left the ears black. I added large google eyes. I have a white base, with a brown layer, then i purple gingham layer that has a "1" cut out (using Cindy Loo). Inside the "1" I stamped "happy brithday" over and over in light pink ink and then outlined the "1" with a pink glaze pen. Then I stamped "happy birthday" again with a different stamp in dark brown"

The owl is on pop dots. and I added some green bakers twine to the bottom and a little bow.

The inside has the same purple gingham and then a pink layer with a pink owl stamped in the bottom corner.

Pink Owl Pillow Box

I made this owl box for my daughters upcoming 1st birthday party.. forest/nature theme just like her baby shower and nursery. I used Cricut Wrap it up cartridge to make the base pillow box and my gypsy to hide the shapes originally on the box. I cut the wings by hand and the beak. The eyes are google eyes and i adhered 3 rows of feathers in different colors on the belly.

I was inspired by pinterest to make this box.. and the original boxes I was inspired by can be viewed HERE

Baby Shower Decore #2

Here is the baby shower banner I made!!! Super cute! I was so happy with how this turned out I cant even begin to tell you all lol.

Used the paper ribbon stuff to string it up. The base of the banner the flower shapes are cut first in chipboard (I used cereal boxes etc) at 4 inches from the Accent Essentials cart. I then cut the shape again on light pink and bright pink card stock. I cut the letters out using Pooh Font cart in shadow first using a tan paper (the same paper I used for the deer on the napkins) and then in light pink & bright pink at 3 3/4 inches. I adhered the pink letters to the tan shadows.

I used some flower stamps and dark pink ink to make my own background on the bright pink paper. I embossed the light pink flower shapes with my Cuttlebug and Swiss Dots folder. I then inked it with a light pink ink to help the dots stand out. I put the letters on (alternating colors so they were opposite their background) using pop dots to help them stand out!

I cut 2 deer from the Create A Critter cart at 6 inches using the same shades of pink and a black shadow. The owl is also using the same shades of pinks and black shadow.. he too is cut at 6 inches and from the Create A Critter cart. I strung up the banner putting the owl between the words and a deer on each side. I used my Big Bite 2 to put some eyelets on all of the pieces so that I could string them easier and faster and they wouldnt ruin the cuts. I have eyelets in the shadow of the deer and owl and strung the ribbon behind the front of the cut so you cant see the holes on them :). Hope you enjoy!!
