CRICUT & GYPSY

How to make Baby Jesus and the manger … Close up picture of this Gypsy shot below.

George

Square… that is smaller on one side than the other… cut @ w o.30 x h 0.66.. If you zoom in you can work with this better…. On the Cricut I would cut this at ¾ and inch.

Legs.. The letter “x” from George cut @ 0.35 x 0.44... On the Cricut I would cut these @ ½ and inch.

Baby Jesus’ head circle cut @ ¼ and inch…on the Cricut I would cut this at ½ an inch.

First I welded the lopsided square to the two X.’s I grouped these and then I welded them.. Duplicate this image then add the circle… cut the first piece in the manger color and the second piece the color you want baby Jesus…. On the Cricut I would cut the lopsided square and the X’s in the manger color glue these to the square with part of the X behind the square…see picture…then I would cut the circle the color I wanted the Baby Jesus and glue the bottom half of this to the back of the square.

George

Heart cut @ w 1.41 x h1.69... On the Cricut I would cut this @ 1 ¾ inches.

Going Places

Globe and its shadow blackouts (2) cut @ w 3.10... Set the width and the height will be right on both cuts…. On the second shadow blackout cut you will weld you letters for “for God so loved” to this… you will have to use the rotate button to get the letters in place right…..On the Cricut I would cut these @ 3 inches.

All Mixed Up

Letters for “for God so loved” cut @ h 0.65.. Set the height and the width will be right… I did change the height of 2 or 3 of the letters to get the look I wanted … you can make the decision on this….on the Cricut I would cut these letters a ½ and inch… place one of your shadow blackout pieces on then card and line the letters up around that… see video for popping instructions.

Letters for “the World” cut @ h 0.68...set the height and the width will be right… I did make the l and d a couple of taps larger using the large circle that enlarges the images…. You can do this to get the look you want… on the Cricut I would cut these at ¾ and inch.

I found this paper ... its paper... so I had a bit of trouble... (remember to buy card-stock Jeannie...remember to buy card-stock!)...but it was so perfect for my son, John-Robert... it just screamed his name... let me tell you a bit about John-Robert... he started RA camp in the summer... a church camp... when he was 8... became a counselor a year before he was suppose to be eligible at 15...and now he is On-Site Director this is his 3rd year...and he is 22... he is so close to God... he has taught me so much about how to be close to God... if I have a God question I ask John-Robert... he has even preached...and I got to hear him...and it blew me away!!.... he loves sharing the fact that God loves us... and for Christmas he gave me a One Year Bible... I have not missed a day reading it...and it has changed my life... made me a much better Christian and a much better person... and I am so excited about the changes!!!... so this card is for John-Robert who walks God's Highway!!!

CRICUT & GYPSY

I am not including Cricut instructions on this card because of the welding...and the stretching of several of the objects.

New Arrival

Feet cut @ w 0.85 x h 1.0.. you will have to unlink the width and length for this....I stretched the length of the feet to make them look like adult feet.

Graphically Speaking

Arrow cut @ w 5.48 x h 2.53... you will also have to unlink the width and length for this cut... the bottom of the arrow is glued to the background the top is pop-dotted from the background.

Going Places
Highway Sign cut @ w 1.68 x h 1.64... I cut two in black and one in white...the white one I trimmed the center pieces out and adhered to one of the black pieced...the other black piece is popped from the background ...then the one with the white is popped for that.
George
letter I for the sign post cut @ w 0.39 x h 2.10
Learning Curve
"walking" cut @ h 1.0.. set the height and the width will be right... I welded these together....I cut two of these in black card-stock and one in paper and glued them all together to give a chipboard look.
"GOD'S" cut @ I put these on the mat at h 1.0... then I welded the letter together...and then I changed the group of letters to w 1.14 x h 0.96.
