Fantabulous Cricut Challenge # 308 - Vacations

 Happy Monday and welcome to another Monday challenge!

Challenge #308-Vacation
Make a project about vacation!

The FCCB Design Team is sponsoring a $25 gift card at

Amazon!

To qualify for the prize, be sure to use at least 1 Cricut cut on your project and if it's not obvious, let us know what cartridge you used. If you use a Cricut Explore machine, at least one cut must be from the Cricut catalog of images.

If it isn't a card, you will get two entries into the drawing!

Here's my Project:

 

 

 

My ex got a motorcycle a year or so ago. His birthday was this past Saturday so I made him this birthday card that looks very similar to his motorcycle. I know it doesn't quite represent a vacation but it could in the future.

 

I used these items to create my motorcycle card:

• Father's Day Cricut cartridge - motorcycle
• George and Basic Shapes Cricut cartridge - rectangle for sentiment
• Black, white and red cardstock
• 2 types of foil paper
• brads
• Glossy Accents
• Cardz TV Stamp "Good Times" - sentiment
• Black ink

 

I am entering my motorcycle card in the following challenges:

• PDE Linky Party #186 - Birthday
• Cardz TV - Anything Goes - Challenge #8
• DL ART - August Linky Challenge

Father's Day Celebration Table Decoration, Sign and Card

So I was inspired the other day by another crafty blogger to create this Father's Day table decoration.  She inspired the container made from theater boxed candy.  My husband loves candy, especially chocolate, so these M & M's boxed candies were perfect.  I changed the design just a tad. 

Basically I attached the boxes to each other, created and attached a bottom cut out of a portion of a cereal box and inserted some floral foam to hold the picks.  I created most of the picks and the sign from the Father's Day Cricut cartridge and just the hockey player from Sports Mania Cricut cartridge.  Each pick represents something my husband enjoys.  Lastly I tied the boxes off with some jute.

I then took a photo of my girls holding the "Best Dad Ever" sign and had it printed out as a card from Walgreens.

Here's the 5 x 7 card, the coloring looks much better in person:
