Cuttlebug & Big Bite Sandwich Cheat Sheet with Pink Cricut

Aloha Crafter's,

I am so happy to be sharing some great information for those who owns a Cuttlebug or Big Shot in their crafting tools.  Pink Cricut has shared with us a little cheat sheet as to how to sandwich your plates for the types of embossing and/or die cutting.  Check out Cuttlebug & Big Bite Sandwich Cheat Sheet on Pink Cricut's blog and print or copy for yourself.  I sure did and it is great to have this handy when you are crafting.  Happy Crafting!!

Mahalo,

Miki

Handbag 2

Here is my second handbag I created in the same pattern.  I was thinking of making this bag a little smaller size by folding the paper in the middle about half inch creating a design on the exterior of the bag.  Enjoy!!










Handbags

I've got to say this was one of my fun projects that I had created.  Here is a handbag I created using a 12 x 12 cardstock as the base.  Enjoy!!









Paper Backpack

Aloha Crafters,


I've got another goodie that I learned and that is the Paper Backpack!  I got to say I was amazed at how great and cute it turned out.  Visit Splitcoaststampers for their Backpack Box tutorial.  Check it out.





Milk Carton Tall

As I created the Mini Milk Carton, I was just thinking of the size milk cartons you see in the grocery stores.  So I decided to create a taller size milk carton.  Rather than using an 7 x 11 cardstock to create the Mini Milk Carton, I used an 8 x 11 cardstock and scored the bottom of the carton at 1-1/2 rather than two giving the body a much taller look.  Check it out.
