When I stand before God at the end of my life, I would hope that I would not have a single bit of talent left and could say, "I used everything you gave me, Lord." I am a believer that God created each one of us with a unique talent, therefore, use it well to serve Him.

Cricut Circle Magazine Challenge - Cosmo Cricket

About two years ago, crafter's found out that Tuesday Morning is a place where you can find craft treasures without ruining your craft budget.  Here is a Cosmo Cricket kit I found during one of my trips there.
 It's about time now to turn this kit into a wonderful creation...
Cricut Circle Magazine Challenge is Cosmo Cricket Contest.  All that requires is for us to use Cosmo Cricket products, three Cricut cuts and a Cuttlebug folder.
With this challenge, I decided to make a hanging frame for my niece, Jannez.  I used Kate's ABC solely for all the Cricut cuts and Victoria embossing folder, which happens to be one of my fave.  All products used with the exceptions on bling, beads, cardstock and adhesives were all Cosmo Cricket.
I used TH glossy accent on the little girls, flowers and the name Jannez to make the images pop-out.

I added some beads, to accent the plain twines.
Rather than leave the end of the twines plain, I cut some hearts using Martha Stewart cardstock.
After cutting the hearts, I run tem to my Cuttlebug machine and used Victoria embossing folder, which happens to be my favorite.
That's it for now.  Until next challenge...

great project! I have that same kit - I bought mine from QVC a couple of years ago - I used the chipboard items as templates, so I can make my own out of recycled chipboard from the office (the cardboard from the back of all those pads in the office). The kit is so pretty I never used it. I will have to pull it out again.
