Pink and Purple Boxes - made using the Cricut Sweet Tooth Cartridge

I created these cute boxes using the Cricut Sweet Tooth Cartridge. These boxes could be used for gift favor boxes, or putting a gift in for a friends birthday or a gift card holder box.  They are cute!!!!!!!!

These can be embellished more if you like!  I've put the butterflys on there, but i have ideas of having pink and blue ones with the numbers 1 on them for a 1st Birthday!  These could be a little cute keepsake of your sons or daughters first birthday for you and your guests!

Obviously for the boys, I wouldn't use the butterfly I would use something else, like a aeroplane or something!

I love working on girl projects, but i'm trying to branch out for the boys too! 







Baby Diaper - Shower Invitation ideas - Boy or Girl

Now this is for something different, I've been reading blogs and I have seen these fantastic ideas to use for Baby Shower Invitations!!!!!  They are very very very cute!!!!!!!!

Now if you were having a baby shower and you don't know if its going to be a "BOY" or "GIRL" why not send out the invitations half Blue and half Pink. 

These could also be used as a congratulations card! 

These are super CUTE!!!!!!!!!


I haven't embellished these but I could add Pins on each the left and right sides to look like a real diaper!  The invitation slides inside.

I will update this post when i have INK so i can show you Invitation ideas!!!! so this will complete the project!!!

Thanks again for the support, I really appreciate it.







Also sorry I don't remember where i originally saw this idea from, so I apologise for not writting this!!!!!!

Cute gift boxes from the Cricut Cartridge Tie the Knot

Cute Gift Boxes - from the Cricut - Tie the Knot Cartridge.

Very cute box, I have used a lovely print cardstock!  Can't remember which cardstock paper pad this was from!  But very very pretty, very lovely for a gift box to give a necklace or something little!!!!!

These could be also used for favour boxes, for birthdays, christenings or baby showers too!  


I thought i would show you how these boxes open.



Another type of box from the Tie the Knot Cartridge!!!!!

Personally I prefer the gift box above!  It closes properly and you have more room to fit the gift!


Purple Pillow boxes - for my bestie Mel ------ as requested

I've been busy lately, but I have been crafting, I will post some posts, so check them out!!!!!!!! 

Also thanks to my supporters that stop by, please leave some comments!!!!!!!

So i've made some Purple pillowboxes as requested from my bestie --Mel-- in America!!!!! <3 her to bits and miss her soooooooo much!!!!!!


So first of all, I would like to show you a Purple Pillowbox no 1. I cut this out of purple 12x12 cardstock.  It needs some ribbon or something to glitz it up!! But its good to give you an idea of what it looks like first and then after.  This is good to go after giving it some ribbon or tag!



This is another way i've created the same design.  This time I have cut it out twice.  Once using the purple cardstock and then Acetate or Binding Plastic sheets.  I use Binding Plastic sheets and I purchased these from my local Officeworks. Then I used the Acetate Pillow box on the outside of the purple pillow box I cut.  This creates a lovely look!!!! love, love, love it!!!!!!!!!! Super Cute!!!!!!!!


These could be used for Gift Boxes, Gift Card Holder, Treat Boxes, Christening, Birthday, or Baby Shower Favor Boxes.

Please note: special requests are welcome, if you have a colour or theme in mind. I can co-ordinate these to match!!!!!!!

Tuesday, 14 August 2012

C R E A T I N G - I've been very busy!!!!!!!! Photos to be published soon!!!!!!

So yeah, your probably been wondering what I have been creating! I have been working from a few cartridges of late ie. Doodlecharms, Sweet Treats, and a couple of others, I can't remember which ones! lol :P  But yes I <3 all my Cricut lovely Cartridges!!!!!!!!
********** Don't worry I haven't given up on this blog thing yet..... :) *lol*  I've been told it takes time to get followers, so yes i will keep going and try to post more often!

Purchases
I also purchased some new materials to use for my boxes!!!!!!  As I had seen some great YouTube videos of people using Acetate so yes went to OfficeWorks and purchased some Transparency Clear Sheets, found with the binding materials and machines, also got some frosted looking ones too!  Bargain as i bought 100 A4 Sheets of each for about $40 each or something, but yeah 200 sheets, these will last me a long time or make a lot of boxes! 
So yes of course i'm soooooooo happy!!!!!!

Creating and Making
I've had extra time to create and make as work is slow which is sad, so I keep myself occupied by crafting and making!!!!!!!!!  In the last week, I have made some Pillow Boxes, boxes which look great, I have not finished embellishing these yet, but once done i will post some photos!!!!!!!!  I have also made some Christmas cards, using one of the xmas Cricut cartridges!!!!!!! Bet your excited to see them!!!!!! I am!!!!!!!!!
I <3 my crafting!

About my Cutting Matts
Also I've had some problems with my cutting matts, as my first machine being an E-Craft, i used stabalisers but these were paper under the sheet.  Now using Cricut and my Zing with Cutting Matts i'm struggling figuring out what is the best product to use to make the matt sticky again.  At the moment, i'm using a couple of different adhesive craft sprays, which don't seem to be doing the job really well, as I have to keep re-doing it.  
Has anyone got any tips or ideas, as to the best products and ways to make it fabulous again and less annoying!!!!!!  I seem to be getting a lot of down time as i'm having to re-spray and clean my matts.

As I actually ruined my Zing Matt, and it is not usuable any more....I am trying the Fiskars Cutting Matts, they are much thicker than the other matts I have used, I have not had any problems yet, except they are 12x12 only so not as big as my Zing matt, will maybe re-order another Zing replacement matt soon!

If you have stopped by my blog, i'm appreciate the support, please leave some comments!!!!!!!

Thanks in advance,

Bye for now!!!!!!!   Will post photos soon!!!!!!!!!

Miss Pinky's Craft Room!!!!!!!!!! Yeah sooooooooooooooo exciting!!!!!!!!!

Sorry to my blogger friends!!!!!!!!  So yes, been a while since I have blogged.  

VERY EXCITING NEWS, I've been soooooooooooo lucky to dedicate a area in our house to my hobby, Crafting!!!!!!!!!!!! 
But yes I may add i've been busy setting up my craft area.  I will post pictures too very soon!!!!!!!

On this topic, I started to research ideas, for easy ideas of storing my cardstock/paper.  I did a lot of research on google for information on storage for 12x12 Card stock.  When I searched high and low, I found the Vertical 12x12 Paper Holders made by Cropper Hopper.    I was delighted when I found these at my local Craft store - Camelots Studio.  I got home and I started sorting out my cardstock into my storage holders.  I didn't even realise I had that much Cardstock and Paper, that I even had to go back to Camelots to get another few holders the next day!!!!!!!  His comment was weren't you here yesterday.  I said yes, didn't realise i had as much cardstock/paper as i actually did.  Funny when you don't have proper storage for something you seem to hoarde more, or buy more of what you originally had already, but because it was hidden, couldn't see it. Many of the things I had thought about when choosing this paper storage.  Also space, this seemed to be the most space efficient way for me.  The picture was stolen from Google, temporarily, i will post my picture of my crafting room with my 12x12 cropper hopper storage holders soon!  Please keep a look out for an update of this topic!!!!!

Cropper Hopper's are a great product, I read many reviews.  100% happy with the product so far. 




Also from Officeworks i purchased the perfect little tray holders for all my crafting tools and materials ie. Scissors, Adhesives and Glues, Ribbons, Stamps, and all my other bits n pieces.  

12 Drawer Chrome Trolley- Multi Colour Brights for a bargain price of 59.98!!!!! was good for me!

Got my table from my local Bunnings store, they had really good quality fold out tables, so yes got a 6ft table for a bargain too.

I also got a chair matt so the wooden floors and carpets wouldn't get damaged.  Also a bin, for my rubbish.  But no need for those pictures.....

So yes, when we got my my items home, we put these together and was VVVEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRYYYYYYYYYYY impressed of how my craft room was looking already!  So ready to craft, having my tools and materials right besides me was a bonus and proving to be the greatest area ever!!!!!!!!!! My little home away from home, I tried to set up my craft room in my room, but it didn't work out......... except that my room is on the small side!!!!!!

But yes i will post photos of Miss Pinky's craft area soon!!!!!!!!!  

Thanks for stopping by and reading my blog, till next time, bye for now!!!!!!!
