Welcome to Erica's Craft Room

100 Cricut Cartridge Blog Hop

You should have come here from Erica's blog-http://ericasprojects.blogspot.com . If not, you will want to start at the beginning at http://MyCricutcraftroom.blogspot.com

My first project features Indie Art and Black Letter. It's a cool duct tape wallet for my son. Here are the pieces of duct tape fabric I made.

 Now I start to piece the duct tape fabric together. On the left side there are 3 pockets for cards and on the right side the clear I.D. pocket and hidden pocket. And of course don't forget the dollar bill pocket.

 I add the silver duct tape to create a nice border around the edges and use Cricut Vinyl to cut out the desired images I wish to use.

My son's initials are cut out at 3 inches using Blackletter. 

 And my son chose the exploding bomb from Indie Art for his wallet front. I cut it out at 3 inches as well and used silver for the shadow feature and black for the regular feature. He loved it...yay.

My next creation would make any sports coach whistle for joy. It's an altered clipboard. I started out with a 9x12 clipboard and the background paper "Cody Benchwarmer"by Love Elsie.

 Using Locker Talk, I cut a banner at 3 1/2 inches tall. I added #1 from Locker Talk to it and also Added a star from the Old West cartridge. I cut the star out of yellow cardstock at 3 1/2 inches and the shadow for the star out of white cardtsock at 3 3/4 inches.

For Coach I used the Sports Mania Cricut Cartridge and cut the frame in blue at 3 1/2 inches and then cut the whistle out in brown and yellow and the word coach out in red and pieced them all together.

I sealed the diecuts and board with Modge Podge and added some colorful ribbons to the top along with some buttons for added decor. I hope you enjoy my finished project.

Spent a few Sunny Days in Palm Springs with my friend scrapping. I was surprised that between the pool, the wine, the dvds, and the chatting I was able to get 12 layouts done and work on some ATC cards for a swap. Here are few of my two page layouts. Thanks for looking.

My crazy boys 2 years ago. It was crazy hair day and their school colors were purple and blue. Cute right?

I won tickets to the premiere of World of Color at Disney's California Adventure. Thanks MyFM for the tickets. We sure did have an amazing time. And the show was fabulous...it is a must see if you are visiting Southern California.

Christmas 2009. This layout was based on a sketch in Scrapbook Etc. This was the last Christmas spent with my sister and mom. They both now live in Colorado.

We have been going to Disneyland for years now. This was the first time my boys had ever been on the Mark Twain. It is such a pretty boat.

What could be better than spending your 40th birthday at Disneyland with your family. I am truly lucky.
