New challenge at Exploring Cricut

We have a fun new challenge this week at Exploring Cricut. You are to create a layout, card, or papercraft using at least 3 cricut cuts, 2 pattern papers, and one embellishment. It can be of any summer activity at all. I created a 2 page layout using some papers I received in my Scrapbook Generation kit and followed the sketch somewhat, but did a lot of my enhancements. I used the cartridges Sesame St. Font, Just Because Cards, Life's a Beach and Party Picks and Pennants digital. I really had fun with this layout. The papers are from Fancy Pants Designs. Below are the measurements of my cuts. Please play along with us this week too! I will also be entering this in the Cricut Circle Weekly Challenge.

Friday Post at Exploring Cricut

I am doing a fill in today for my friend and fellow DT member Lori over at Exploring Cricut. Her cricut is being returned for a replacement so I will do todays post. I created a layout using the cartridges Disney Pooh Font, Everyday Paperdolls, and the digital images from Party Picks and Pennants. Below the picture is my materials and cuts. Please join on our challenge this week too with your Father's Day projects.
