Shape-a-Day: Day 3

On day three of my Cricut shape-a-day, I am delighted to present to you this lovely juniper cameo box. Your Cricut machine will cut the shape for you, ready to fold up with your gift of choice inside. What will you fill it with? A delicious homemade cookie or some candy? A treasured photograph? Maybe jewelry or a gift card? That’s for you to decide!

Shape instructions: Set the size to 10”; press the “font layer” feature key, shift, and then the button in the top left corner of the key pad overlay. Page 21 in the booklet.

Shape-a-Day Two

Today’s featured Cricut shape is the really a whole set of shapes. The Art Philosophy cartridge comes with a complete alphabet in both base and layer fonts. I love the way color from the background peeps through the letters!







Shape instructions: Push the “font layer” feature key and the corresponding letter keys – look on page 76 of your booklet to see where to find each letter. These letters were cut at 1 ¾”.

Cricut Shape-a-Day One

Close To My Heart's founder, Jeanette Lynton, is posting these on her blog throughout October. I'll share them with you daily. Hope you all enjoy seeing what you can make with our new Cricut cartridge!

Announcing Cricut Shape-a-Day!

Our new Cricut Art Philosophy cartridge is already a big hit – I loved concepting this product and its multitude of shapes! That’s why, for the month of October, I’ll be sharing a new art project featuring a different Cricut shape every day. That’s right: thirty-one days, thirty-one pieces of artwork, each highlighting a different fabulous shape from the Art Philosophy collection! So, with no further ado, here comes the first shape!

The first piece of artwork I’d like to share with you is this elegant thinking of you card, touting one of the Art Philosophy cartridge’s tag shapes. Once cut, this shape was so easy to dress up using the perfectly coordinating image from the September Stamp of the Month set, Limited Edition.



Shape instructions: create this tag by setting the size dial to 3 ½” and pushing the far right key on the fourth row; see page 60 in the Cricut Art Philosophy booklet.
