I then inked all my images before assembling them.

Warming by the Fireplace!
Hi Crafty friends! Brenda here from Friends Craftin with Friends. I am thrilled to be guest designer today at Sweet Sassy Diva! Thank you for having me Bobbi Jo! For our challlenge we were asked to make a scene. My scene is from Christmas watching our DG open her presents from us. I used my Gypsy to lay out my overall design and yes, I do falter a little from it. lol
I also used my Gyspy along with my Imagine to print and cut out all my images. Here is my Imagine printing and cutting.
Here they are ready to go onto my lo now.
The carts that I used are: Country Life, Joys of the Season, Jolly Holidays, Imagine More, Imagine More Cards, Mr. Frosty and Kate's Kitchen. Here's my finished layout:
It was so much fun making this scene and I really love how it turned out. I hope you enjoy it too!

Senior Scrapbook Layout!
Hi everyone! This is Tina Gale from tiggersscrapplace I have a great layout to share today of my son's senior pics and a video showing how to use the Imagine when you don't have just the right paper for a project. It's really hard to video the small screen so I apologize it's a little blurry but hopefully it will help you learn a great feature of the Imagine. I can't wait to share with you how easy it is!
If you are following the blog by email, please go to http://sweetsassydiva.com/ to view the video.
Here's a close up of the banner I made with my Imagine. It's cut from the Imagine More cartridge pg. 27 at 1.7 inches. I changed to the patterned paper found on pg. 44. Be sure to check out the video to learn how to do this. It's super simple and fabulous way to save money on patterned paper!
I used bakers twine and buttons to hang it on my page. Their school colors are burgandy, gold, and black so I chose the black and yellow twine and burgandy buttons to tie in their colors.
The font is from the Old West cart cut at 3/4 inch. I used an extra pennant to put the year on.
I decided upon argyle paper and the diamond border to complement the banner.
The border is cut at 2 inches from the Creative Memories Reminisce Accents cart pg. 65. This cart has some fabulous borders on it! I cut two of them and pieced together on my layout. You could also weld them on your gypsy or in the cricut craft room before cutting.
I hope you enjoyed my layout and video and that it helps you try this great feature if you haven't already.
If you're reading this from sweetsassydiva be sure to come visit me at my blog for more great projects. Also, be sure to check out the rest of the great graduation projects from the rest of the design team being featured all this week.
Have a blessed Day

I used the negative pieces from the border to put across the middle of the page to help carry through the design. Don't be too quick to throw your trash away! You never know when it can be a great addition to your project.

Happy Earth Day!
Hi Everyone
It's Rebecca here from Creations With Becka. This week for SSD DT challenge we were asked to make something for Earth day which is Friday April 22nd or something for Easter. I thought I would focus on Earth Day since I haven't really seen any projects for that yet.
Well I just got an Imagine and I made this cute card with the Cartridge that it comes with. I believe is called Imagine More.

April Showers!
Hello Everyone- This is Summer from Cricutdiaries.com and this week over at SSD I was asked to choose this weeks theme.... And I chose Easel Cards! This is one of my favorite folds and after you do one, it is very easy to remember.
I wanted to use my new April Showers cart so I made my card a "Spring" card.
Recipe:
Imagine More Card
April Showers
White card stock
Clear Stickles
Lavender Ink (I used stampin Up!)
Purple and white gel pens
For this card I printed and cut 2 squares with a pattern from IMC , those squares were cut at 4.7. The banner (both layers) were cut at 1.5, the tree at 3, the house at 3.5 and the flower was cut at 1.5.
For the base of the Easel card I cut a strip of white card stock at 5x10 and another at 5x5. I folded the larger strip in half to form a 5x5 card, then the top portion of the card (that would have been the front) and folded that in half again (2.5). I inked all the edges in a lavender ink.
Then I adhered my patterned squares to the full, no folded inside of the card and on the 5x5 square. That 5x5 square will be glued to the 2.5 inch folded strip on the top of the card.
For this view you can see how the 5x5 square attaches.
I used pop dots, Stickles and the purple gel pen to add detail to the entire card as well as the images I cut out. I hope you enjoy my "Spring" card and I hope that you enjoy all the Easel's you see this week!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!
Hey Ladies- This is Summer from http://www.cricutdiaries.com/http://www.cricutdiaries.com/ and this week Bobbi Jo from Sweet Sassy Diva has asked her DT to make a St.Patrick's Day project using newspaper/newsprint. I chose to make 2 6x6 LO for my girls mini paper bag books.
Recipe:
Imagine More Cartridge
Simply Charmed
White card stock
Black card stock
2 Green eyelets
Black ribbon
Black Memento Ink
Happy St. Patrick Stamp
All of the images were cut at 2 inches from Simply Charmed, they colors were from the Imagine More cartridge.
The black card stock was cut at 6x6 the newsprint (oops my bad, I thought that I had newsprint but it was music paper) was cut at 5 3/4 inches x 5 3/4. The green print was also printed and cut from Imagine more at 4.5 inches.
I recently bought this memento ink and I love it, it is TRUE black. I stamp I used is from the $ store.
I recently bought a Big Bite for another project and used it to add 2 small green eyelets to the corner. I also ran some thin black ribbon through them and tied a simple bow.
Once I layered all the tiny layers I used pop dots to put them on my mini LO and and used a white gel pen for detail on the images and along the black boarder! Happy St. Patrick's Day!

I used the Cricut to print and
cut the eggs, "stir", timer and title. I used a typewriter to tell the
story. I used my sewing machine to decorate the edges and left a little of
the thread hanging. I like to do that because it makes the page feel
humble to me.

Attention! Mini book!
Click Picture for blog hop and chance to win awesome prizes including cricut cartridges!
It was extended due to blogger difficulties.
This week at Sweet Sassy Diva we were all asked to make something using something new we received over the holidays or to make a recycled project. I choose to recycle! I have seen the toilet paper mini books before and when I saw the many wrapping paper rolls I had laying around after Christmas, I decided to make one myself.
Recipe-
Imagine More Cartridge
Birthday Bash (or any cart with tags)
5 sheets of patterned card stock cut to 5x6
Ribbon
CuttleBug with A,B,C plates
Hole Punch
I started by cutting down the wrapping paper rolls to 5 inches each (I got 5 out of my roll) Then I covered them with the 5 different sheets of patterned card stock that were cut to 5x6. I used a Glitter multi stack by DCWV.
I then ran each roll through my Cuttle Bug using and A,B and C plate to try and flatted out the roll (it did help, but I may need to stick mine under a very heavy book for a while to get them to lay a little flatter)
I don't have a Crop-A-Dial so I used a regular hole punch. I punched 2 holes 1 roll at a time (Man do my hands hurt, I may need a Big Bite LOL!).
Then on my Imagine I cut 2 different tags from Birthday Bash (5 total) at 4 inches and used alternate colors and patterns. I also cut out the little Monopoly Man (As I call him) at 3 inches for the front of my mini book from Imagine More. I used 12x12 textured white card stock.
I knotted a ribbon through the tag holes, and inserted the tags into the side openings of the paper rolls.
I ran a red ribbon through each of the holes to bind this mini book. I then added some accent ribbons. I also used pop dots to put my Monopoly Man to the front of the book.
I really look forward to making some more of these mini books. Hope you enjoy my little project this week!

Christmas Ornaments!
Hello all! This is Carissa!! I was super excited when a certain package arrived the other day!! Oh my goodness!! Post-it Craft Paper!! This paper is really awesome and I love it!!! It is so easy to use and looks great! It really is cut, peel and stick!! Thank you so much for letting me try out this wonderful product!!
My project this week was to use the Post-it Craft Paper! So, I used it to personalize ornaments purchased from my Celebrating Homes consultant. I flipped the letters from the Gypsy Font Shadow so I could use the adhesive side for glitter! I am beginning to really love glitter!! It was really easy and quick to do once I figured out which color I could part with... Just take off the backing and pour your glitter on!!
/
After glittering, I used clear adhesive dots to attach to plastic paper. Probably would have been okay without the plastic paper but I thought that it needed to be a little thicker. The ornament had a raised circle where I wanted to attach the initial. The finished product looks perfect!!
Another fun project using the Post-it Craft Paper... Labels! I love to organize so this was actually the first thing I did after opening the package!! I used an image from the Imagine More cartridge with patterned paper from the Better Together cartridge. Love to cache patterns! The original image is the green label. I also made smaller labels for the pockets on the inside. Might be able to see that in a video soon!!!
