Surround Yourself
I used the Everyday Cartridge to decorate my tree I keep on my desk to decorate for each season/holiday. Now I have my Surround Yourself Tree for in between the holidays. My girls love decorating the tree. We have only had it a couple months but they are learning that we make decorations for the tree together. My 3 year old helped hang some of the ornaments on the tree and she even picked out a few of the colors for a couple of the craft items and glued them together.
Now I can only hope I have been a good girl and Cricut will come and bare Gifts like Santa and leave me some nice crafting goodies under the tree ; )
The base of the tree is decorated with my Circle boxes and Confetti I recieve my Circle Cartridges in.
I carefully removed the cardboard and glued the pretty green circle paper to white cardstock.
The size is 2 pcs. cut at 9.5 x 4.75 and tape together at the corners on the backside. It will then slide on and off the base easily for storage.

Cute tree and love the decorations! What size did you cut them all out?
ReplyDeleteThis is so cute!! I can tell you did a lot of work on it. Love all the images!!! I so wish I had this cart!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much everyone! Donna I listed the sizes of all the ornaments for you under the photos. Paula...I love this cartridge after playing with it! Maybe if you joined the Circle you would still be able to get one. I heard but don't know if it is true; that the next cart might be pop-ups! I hope so...I was so excited when I heard this!
