Dtsarts Design Team - Milk Cartons and Carrier

I was so excited to work on this project!!  I have always loved the milk carton projects I have seen posted over the last few years.  Finally I can make one of my own:-)  I chose to go with a Halloween theme and plan to fill the cartons with a variety of candy.  You can purchase this svg file here.    It is a fabulous deal on sale for only $3.00!!  Included you get the mini milk carton file and two different carriers.  One to hold 4 milk cartons (double) and one to hold 2 milk cartons (single).  You also get your choice of bottoms - scallop, no scallop, tall bottom or shorter bottom. 





My project uses the double carrier to hold 4 mini milk cartons and I used the tall bottom with the scalloped edge.





The whole project went together rather quickly.  The score lines help you with folding the boxes up correctly.  I do suggest you read the directions included with the files first so that you aren't confused:)  Thanks for stopping by today and please check out Dtsart blog and see the projects the rest of the design team made.  You will love how creative everyone was with this same file - no two projects look alike!!

WILD AND FABULOUS Blog Hop

Welcome to the WILD AND FABULOUS Blog Hop!!!   Today we are sharing some super fun and super girly projects with you!

If you've come from visiting Susan then thanks for hopping along!! If you're just visiting and would like to start from the beginning you can go to Inking It Up Crazy.  You will want to check out each blog for some great ideas and some sweet blog candy.

I chose to make a card using the purse from Pasley Cartridge.  I cut it out at 3.5" and added some bling to dress it up a bit.  I also made this A2 sized box.  One of my friends' birthdays was last week and I missed out on doing something for her so these will become hers.  What is going in the box is still a mystery - maybe a gift, maybe some homemade cards, maybe both, suggestions??





I have some blog candy for you today:-)  I do ask that you be a follower and that you have a United States address for this one, thanks.  Just leave me a comment and a way to get a hold of you if you are the lucky winner.  I will draw a winner on Monday, September 26th.

Inking It Up Crazy DT Project - least used cricut cartridge

Kassidy challenged the DT to use their least used cricut cartridge on their projects this week.  I have owned Snow Friends for almost 2 years now and this was the first time I have ever used it.  Sad, I know!!  I found the little cuts for the face annoying to work with so I am thinking next time I will either use a marker to color them in or a peachy keen stamp.  I also used my snowflake cuttlebug embossing folder.  Be sure to head over to Kassidy's blog to see what the rest of the team created.  Let this challenge help you to pull out the dusty cricut cartridge that feels neglected and is anxious to be used:-)

DtsArts Design Team - Swirly Frames

It's time for another post for DtsArts Design Team.  This week we are working with the swirly frames.  I did my first scrapbook layout in years (talk about being behind, lol!!)  If you follow my blog you know that we went to Disneyland this summer.  So, I used a couple of the frames from this svg set to enhance my photos and also used the swirl element to embellish the page some more.  I love the way this layout came together with the help of the swirly frames and if you look closely you can see the designer paper has swirls on it too!!   Thanks for looking and hop on over to Dtsart to view the great svg files and also to Dtsart Blog and see what the rest of the design team did!!
