Love Is... Wall Art

-

Happy Good Friday!

A few weeks ago, my cousin asked me to create some wall art for her. She had purchased some vinyl & had finally figured out what she wanted it to say.

She came up with a combination of scriptures about Love.

I used my Cricut Design Studio, my Expression & my 12x24 mat to create the design. I used the Calligraphy Collection, MS Elegant Cake Art, MS Seasonal Cake Art, & Cindy Loo cartridges for the fonts.

Weeding out all the little pieces inside the letters was horrendous! But my cousin enjoyed doing it, so it worked out well.

Oh, and I didn't have transfer tape, so we used a wide roll of masking tape to transfer the vinyl to the wall... Whew, what a process that was. But she loves it & that's all that matters :)

    LOVE is an action word. You showed so much love to your cousin by making this for her. It looks great, the fonts go so well together. I love it.

It's that Time! The Pursuit for 250 Followers!

I have a plan & I need your help to make it happen. I am on a journey to reach 250 followers. I promised that when I reached 250 followers, I would give away a Cricut cartridge. Well, I am holding to that promise & I am taking it up a notch. SO FAR , I have 2 cartridges to give away - brand new, in the package, reward points in tact, never synced to a Gypsy. So, the plan is this - when I reach 250 followers , I will use a giant bowl (easiest method with all the entries I hope to get) to pick the lucky winner who will get to choose which of the 2 cartridges they would like to have. If I reach 350 followers in that same week , I will pick another winner and they will get to have the other cartridge. Sounds fair enough right? So how do you win? 1. You must be a follower of my blog - that's the whole point of all of this right? 2. Leave a comment on this post to let me know that you are supporting me in my quest to 250 followers. But, I think these things work

I posted a few pictures & promised to come back with the details – and here they are! … interested in hearing more? Well read on to learn how to get this wonderful Elmo image & many more! To do this wonderful trick, you start with your desired image in Design Studio. Here, I am working with an Elmo image from Sesame Street Friends. Here is the base for Elmo. I right-clicked on the mat to change the preview color to black. I added a layer (reordering it to be placed in front of the base layer by right-clicking and selecting "Page Order") using the "Body/White" function key to add Elmo's fur. I changed the preview color to red. On that same function, I pressed the shift key to add Elmo's eyes. Placing this layer in front of the others and changing the preview color to white. I added a 4 th layer (using page order to "Bring
