MCCR - Christmas Theme


Today's challenge at My Cricut Craft Room is to create something with a Christmas Theme.  I made a Christmas card using the Cricut cartridge A Quilted Christmas.

Design paper from My Mind's Eye "Signature Christmas" 12" x 12" pack.  Edges have been inked using Tim Holtz Faded Jeans Distress Ink. 

A2 sized card
Cricut "A Quilted Christmas" cartridge
Card Recipe:
  • Mat 1 (dark blue) = 5 3/8" x 4 1/8".  Corners rounded at 1/4".
  • Mat 2 (blue polka dots) = 5" x 3.75".  Corners rounded at 1/4".
  • Mat 3 (dark blue) = 4 7/8" x 3 5/8".  Corners rounded at 1/4".
  • Mat 4 (leaf pattern) = 4.75" x 3.5".  Corners rounded at 1/4".

  • Praying Child = cut image and shadow at 3" from Cricut cartridge A Quilted Christmas; found on page 57 of the folder.  I've used multiple layers under the praying child to give depth to the image.
  • Sentiment "Unto us a child is born" = from CardzTV "Classic Christmas" stamp set.
  • Mat under sentiment = cut to size.  Corners rounded at 1/4".
