Anna Griffin and Cricut!!!

On her July HSN show, Anna debuted her new Cricut cartridge, "Summer Soiree". It has the most gorgeous images on it. I wanted to share a few projects that I did with this one!!!

For this first layout I just cut a large doily from one of the sets! I used green cardstock from the Perfect Palatte collection, then cut the solid from the Carmen collection. Love the yellow, green and pink together!!! I also cut a solid from the light pink for the center area as a mat for the photo!

This was a fun project, I made a "Party Banner" from one of the doily patterns as well! I cut them smaller, folded them and decorated. I used small decorative clothespins and attached them to twine!!! I used a matching label from the set for the letter mats!

And last, I used one and made it as large as I could and made a die-cut background for the page!!! Kept it simple as far as embellishments for the contrast!!!!

This is just an awesome and very versatile cartridge! I used the new Cricut Explore but you can get an actual "cartridge" as well!!! Hope you liked the examples, go check out Anna's homepage or her Pinterest page to see more cool ideas with this cartridge!!!

Thanks for visiting!!!

Hiya, I am really glad I have found this info. Today bloggers publish only about gossip and net stuff and this is actually annoying. A good site with exciting content that is what I need. Thank you for making this site, and I will be visiting again. Do you do newsletters? I can’t find it...Best Cccam Server
