CRICUT & GYPSY

Sugar and Spice

Lacy Oval cut @ w 3 3.30 x h 3.16... On the Cricut I would cut this @ 3 1/4 inches.

George

Oval (for center of lacy oval) cut @ w 1.57 x h 2.71.. You will have to unlink the width and height for this cut… Using the Cricut I would have to get an oval template for this cuts.

Sentimentals

Thank You and its shadow cut @ h 0.81 set the height and the width will be right… on the Cricut I would cut this @ ¾ an inch or maybe even 1 inch.

Wild Card

Rose (4) cut @ w 1.83 x h 2.57... I cut one in brown….for the parts hanging down from the rose… I cut the roses apart and made 3 layers so that I could make it 3-d.. see pictures below…on the Cricut I would cut this @ 2 inches.

Indy Art

Rose (for stem) cut @ w 1.08 x h 1.69 … I cut the straight stem from the other roses I like this stem better and the other rose better…. I did use the hide contour feature to hide the veins in the leafs on this cut…..on the Cricut I would cut this @ 1 ¾ and inch.

Nana Donna thank you again...I wanted to make card today and my mind was just blank...then I decided to go to the sketch challenge and try one of Donna's sketches again... I was happy how this turned out... its a fun card... you have to love a fun card!!... and it gave me a chance to you Create a Critter which I love but have not used very much.... I did not make a video this time... did a run through and just could not explain things clearly enough so I passed on a video this time...but do hope to make more in the future... thank you so much for looking ... love your comments... Hugs, Jeannie

CRICUT & GYPSY

Create a Critter

Lamb and its layers cut @ h 1.64 set the height and the width will be right on all cuts... I did leave out the second layer from the bottom..the one with the cut outs for the eyes and mouth because I wanted the lamb to be just black and white... ...so I left out that layer and drew the face on will a Jelly Roller white pen.....on the Cricut I would cut these @ 1 1/2 inches.

Sentimentals

Scalloped circles (found on the charm option key) each cut on real dial size the large one cut @ h and w 2.91, the medium one cut @ h and w2.62, smaller one cut @ h and w 2.33... here is the trick I learned so I wouldn't have to figure out quarter inches when the cuts weren't in quarter inches... I started with the large scalloped circle at 3 inches...then I duplicated that and changed the size to 2.75 inches...then I duplicated that and changed the size to 2.5 inches... layered them on top of one another and grouped them...then I put these in the center of a rectangle the size of my background piece of paper... this you can delete before you cut.... I used the button that changes the size down until I got it the size I wanted...it kept all the scalloped circles in proportion and I didn't have to do the math... then you can ungroup the scalloped circles and move them were you want them on the mat.... on the Cricut I would cut the circles at 3 inches then 2 3/4 then 2 1/2 inches all on real dial size.

George

Circle cut on real dial size @ 1.99 inches... on the Cricut  I would cut this at 2 inches on real dial size.

Heart cut @ w 0.65 x h 0.79...on the Cricut I would cut this at 3/4 and inch.

Plantin Schoolbook

Scalloped edge cut @ w 2.99 x h 0.44... I welded two of these together... group them then go back and change your height to 4.75 inches.. this is the height of your background piece... on the Cricut I would cut 2 of these at 1/2 an inch and trim off the part I didn't need.

Wild Card

"ewe" cut @ h 1.89...set the height and the width will be right... move the letter where they overlap a bit and weld them together... on the Cricut I would cut these @ 1 3/4 inches.

 *The rest of the paper in the background I cut with my paper trimmer as follows

Frame piece cut @ 4 x 5 1/3 inches

Striped paper cut @ 3 1.4 x 3 3/4 inches

Paisley paper cut @ 1 3/4 x 4 3/4 inches

Card base is 4 1.4 x 5 1.2 inches

I was so excited when Donna Mundinger picked this cut for the Bitten By the Bug 2  Design Team cut for this weeks challenge.....  I absoutly love it... then I drew a blank for a day or two ...and then there it was in my head the idea for this card...and I had so much fun making it... this is the first time I have added doodles to this bee and I was tickeld to death with how they turned out... I hope that you like my card!!... be sure to visit the Bitten By the Bug 2 and see what Bee-u-tiful things the other Design Teams members have created!...thank you for looking!... Hugs, Jeannie

CRICUT & GYPSY

Sentimentals

Bee (2) and its  shadow cuts... one in yellow two in velum cut @ h 2.48 set the height and the width will be right on all cuts...I was thinking that the stripes on the bees back were cut out... so I cut a yellow shadow to go behind this...instead you can cut yellow stripes on one of the layer features and leave out the yellow shadow cut... I trimmed the antennas off all the cuts but the black cuts.... on the Cricut I would cut these @ 2 1/2 inches.

Give A Hoot

Tag and its solid shadow cut @ h 3.41...on the Cricut I would cut these at either 3 1/2 inches.

Flower cut to place on top of tag and its layers cut @ h 2.73 ...set the width and the height will be right... I cut an extra green and orange part of this cut for the inside..I am not sure at all what size to do this on the Cricut I am guessing  2 3/4 inches will work...this is totally a guess.

Graphically Speaking

Swirls cut @ W 2.86 x h 0.80... you will need to unlink the width and height for this... one of these is welded to the shadow cut of the tag....on the Cricut I would cut this at 3/4 and inch.

Song Bird

(loving this cartridge for welded letters!)

"B-day" cut @ h 0.77 set the height and the width will be right...scoot these letters together and weld them...on the Cricut I would cut these at 3/4 and inch...and overlap them when I placed them on the card.

"happy" cut @ 0.77 set the height and the width will be right... scoot together and weld....I placed this on the tag where I wanted it... then I duplicated it so I could cut one in a different color to place on top of the welded "happy"..this duplicating it after I got it just right was the easy way to get everything exactly the same.... on the Cricut I would cut these @ 3/4 and inch..I would adhere the swirl directly to the paper..then place the happy on top of that...you will get almost the same effect.

I popped the tag from the background...then the layer is popped from the background tag cut...the bee is popped from the background paper too.

CRICUT & GYPSY

Sentimental

Lamp its shadows and all 4 or its layers cut @ h 3.56... set the height and the widths will be right... the lamp shadow that isn't in red isn't welded to that small rectangle...its there to cut the right shape out in the rectangle to make the lamp layers sit right...I also liked the effect better.... on the Cricut I would cut these @ 4 inches... I wouldn't worry about the un-welded shadow cut.

Stamp shaped cuts cut @ w 1.46 x h 1.74... on the Cricut I would cut these at 1 3/4 inches.

Give A Hoot

Flourishes cut @ w 2.01 x h 0.65 ... on the Cricut I would cut these at 1/2 an inch.

Forever Young

Lady Silhouettes cut @ w 0.66 c h 1.40.. do not weld this cut to the rectangle behind it...so it will be cut out of the center.... on the Cricut I would cut these @ 1 1/4 inch in black and glue on top of the square.

George

All the rectangles are actually squares cuts with the height and width off to get the sizes I needed.

Squares welded to the lamp shadows and grouped then cut @ w 0.66 x h 1.40...lay out one of these then duplicate so they will be exactly the same... pop the first one from the background... then pop the other from that... using the Cricut I would cut these on my paper trimmer at width 3.5 x h 1 3/4 an inch and then glue the shadow into place.

Smaller Square for the sentiment cut @ w 3.41 x h 1.52...place the lamp shadow over this... in the right place... but do not weld so you get the round cut in the corner...see picture.... to line this up right I placed it over the welded pieced... the grouped and moved...using the Cricut I would cut this on the paper cutter at a little little more than 3 inches x 1 1/2 inches.

Square with the silhouette cut out cut @ w 1.19 x 1.46 ...using the Cricut would cut these with the paper cutter 1/4 inch wider and taller than your stamp cut.

*The lamp shadow that is not welded is placed off the paper some because you don't need that  lamp except for what it does to the square.

I was a bit fidgety watching TV last night so I got our my Gypsy to go through my cartridges....and see if I could come up with any ideas...I just got the new Sentimental cartridge the other day and I love, love the stamp cut on it... and had Valentines on my mind and looked at the Sweethearts cartridge, which I haven't used very much.... and decided laid this card out really quick without thinking much of it... when I decided on the papers I wanted to use today I got really excited!!!... its a simple card...but the papers and the Ultra Fine Clear Embossing Powder on the balloons, the "love", and the couple really set this card off.... I am really really happy with how it turned out!!... hope that you like it too!!...I prayed to God for some card ideas...I told him I really needed this for my mental health....and he has been so good to me the last couple of day...always...but the last couple of days with my cards.... So I want to give God the credit for these cards and say "Thank you God so much for what you do for me!".... thank you so much for looking!... Hugs, Jeannie

Large Stamp frame cut @ w 4.19 x h 5.25 ...on the Cricut I would cut this @ 5 1/4 inches.

Small Stamp frame cut @ w 2.81 x h 3.33 ... on the Cricut I would cut these at 3 1/4 inches.

Large Stamp center cut w 4.78 x h 3.29 ...using the Cricut I would cut this with my paper cutter.

Extra Balloons cut @ w 0.94 x h 0.74 there are only 3 on the mat but I cut 4..one for the inside...on the Cricut I would cut these the same as the couple on the layer feature... but I an not sure at all on this cut... you might just want to cut the couple again in red and use just the balloons to pop on top of the other balloons.

Beyond Birthdays

"love" cut @ w 3.24 x h 1.14... on the Cricut I would cut this at 1 1/4 inches.
