Hello Everyone, today I'm posting my design team project for the My Cricut Craft Room Blog. Our theme today is Bedtime.
My absolute favorite picture of Mike was taken on Christmas Eve 1993. It was his first Christmas and I wanted to showcase this special night.
My idea was 'twas the night before Christmas, When new traditions are born.
I wanted the title to stand out, but not be popped up with 3D foam tape. I first welded together the letters off the songbird cartridge with my gypsy. Then on page two, I picked the shadow letters and welded them together. I then cut out two of the shadow words. Christmas was cut from the Christmas cricut cartridge.
This is the three cuts pasted together. My paper has a white core, so I used the coordinating ink color to ink the edges and cover up the white that was showing.
So here's what I ended up with. I have a large journal box and detailed the new tradition that was started, Mike's age and the date.
Everyone was unsure of the green background. So I changed the background paper and here was my final layout.
I would love to hear your opinion on which layout you like the best, green or blue background.
