Father's Day Imagine Challenge!

Hello and Happy Thursday everyone!

I asked Mi-Mi to post today since I'm

doing a blog hop on Saturday but I have nooooo

clue where she is at! :o) Sooo I thought I would

post my card for a challenge over at:

Creative Critterz Imagination - Make a Father's Day

card using your Imagine! They are asking everyone to

join in and then you get to vote for your favorite card!

Soooo if you don't have an Imagine or plan to participate

I would LOVE it if you can vote for me! The winner will

receive the YUMMY Imagine Cartridge! Nice Prize! :o)

I've contacted Tammy about the challenge because there

is a problem with linking my project up so as soon as I know

all is well with linking I'll let you guys know too! :o)

Anyway.... Here is the project I made for their challenge!

I really like how this turned out! I used the Cricut Craft Room

to design my card.... They are working on getting the Imagine

to cut but it's not 100% yet... Or at least it's not for me! :o) They

are very close to getting both the I and the CCR to work together

and I'm soooo super exited about that! :o) Any who...

Card stock, Scallop border Punch - Stampin' Up

Designer papers - Imagine More Cartridge

Cartridges - George & Basic Shapes (Scallop Border)

was done in the DP & cut @ 4.4

(Striped Rectangle) was Cut @ 4.4

(Spotted DP) was Cut @ 4.3 x 5.8

Celebrate w/Flourishes (DAD) Cut @ 3 1/2"

(1) was cut out (2x's)

(#) was cut out (2x's)

(D) was cut out (2x's)

(D) was cut out (2x's)

And then I added some Baker's Twine

Here is the side view to show the added dimension

that I used to pop up some of the cuts on the #1 Dad!

And yes the inside is done just a little bit!

I don't like to waste any paper so I took the

extra piece from the Imagine Circle DP and cut it in

half then used the border scallop punch on them

they are about 1/2" wide and 4" long

and the sentiment is from my Hallmark program....

Someone asked me how I use my program with my

cards and basically I get a sheet of white Card stock

and add a few different sentiments to the sheet since

I don't like to waste paper/Card stock and I usually get

about 4 different sentiments on 1 sheet and then I cut them

out that way instead of using my Cricut & the Center point...

I actually have 1 piece of card stock as my template already

It's a 4 x 5 1/4 piece and I have a 4 1/2 x 4 1/2 for my

square cards that I use.... and I flip my paper over and use my

template to mark my cutting area.... If this doesn't make sense

to anyone please let me know and I will do a tutorial on it....

It's really easy to do and maybe someone else has a better

method but this is what works for me.... So let me know

in the comment section... Thanks for stopping by...

and make sure you go check out
