Throwback Thursday "Cricutless Challenge"

I finally decided on how I was going to attempt this "Cricutless Challenge" for Throwback Thursday at My Creative Time and this is what I came up with.  I'm so happy that this type of challenge was given, it made me (and I'm sure for others too) to re-explore life without Cricut.  The requirements for this challenge was to *** Create a CARD using the colors PURPLE, ORANGE, GREEN & BLACK and obviously not use your cricuts, imagines, e2's or your gypsy! *** But you could use punches &/or cuttlebug!  I knew right away I was going to use my cuttlebug, probably some stickers, ribbon and maybe a button or two. 

I am also entering this in the Getting Cricky Simply Sunday Halloween challenge

This is what I used to create this "Cricutless" card:
  • Black, orange, purple, and green cardstock
  • Cuttlebug
  • D'vine Swirls embossing folder
  • Stickles and Studio G glitter glue
  • My Moments peel-n-stick ribbon
  • Silk flower
  • Crystal sticker (pumpkin in center of flower)
  • (inside) Martha Stewart corner punch
  • (inside) stamps



Thanks for looking and I think I may have to come up with some more projects without my Cricut, this was fun!!!

  2. Nice job...love the embossing! Good luck in the challenge!
    You asked me about the containers I used for the candy corn. I purchased them at a craft store called Crafts Direct but I think you can get them at Michaels or Joannes. Maybe Hobby Looby too:) They are plastic tube containers~company is Nicole Crafts (that is on the sticker if that helps.
