Share the LOVE -Fantabulous Cricut Crawl

Hi everyone,
I'm so happy that you've taken the time to visit me at Robin's Creative Cottage today, I'm the creator of Fantabulous Cricut, and I hope you've come to enjoy the 4th Fantabulous Cricut Crawl, this is Fantabulous Cricut's version of a blog hop!

If you've come along for the "Share the LOVE Cricut Crawl" then you've just come from visiting "Scrappin' With my Bug", Michelle's blog. I hope you took some time to look around her blog, she's very talented and has great projects to share. If you've just happen to come across my blog and would play along with the Fantabulous Cricut Crawl, then begin -HERE

Valentine's Day is in in a week, and everyone at Fantabulous Cricut has decided to "Share the Love"! Each Design Team member will be featuring an original Valentine-themed project that includes the word "LOVE" somewhere on it. Make sure to check out each DT member's blog for some awesome inspiration! And there may be PRIZES along the way at some of our DT members' blogs, Also there is a Grand Prize up for grabs at FCCB for one participant that submits a "Share the LOVE" project at FCCB (Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Blog)... So much fun!

**For my "Share the LOVE" project I cut out a clear box using the Once Upon a Princess cricut cartridge. I used my "Heart Blocks" cuttlebug embossing folder on the plastic... wow... the box turned out amazing! ---I'm defiantly going to do a video on this technique because if I tried to explain it, it may not be clear for you to follow... so watch my blog for the video to come soon.

For the hearts, the word "LOVE" and the key, I used the Sweethearts cricut cartridge, added just a hint of pink "bling" to the heart. The "LOVE" was cut in black then I added glitter for "sparkle".
I created this project on my gypsy so the following measurements are approximate...box was cut at 6" tall x 10 1/2" wide, heart 2 1/2 tall and the key 2" tall.

*****

PRIZE... yes I have a prize to give away...
"April Showers" cricut cartridge!
Come follow my blog and leave a comment on this post and you will be eligible to win.
NOTE: I now have a "subscribe by email" in the left side bar

*****

Now it's your turn to join in in the Fantabulous Cricut "Share the LOVE" challenge and use the word "LOVE" some where on your project! You can add your project at Fantabulous Cricut -HERE.

But first... your next stop... is with my good friend Saundra "Luv Scrappin Together -HERE. She has a wonderful project to share with you.

Remember when you're done, make sure to link your project to FCCB's Fantabulous Cricut Crawl post to be entered into the contest!

Enjoy the "Share the LOVE" Crawl!
Thanks for visiting and come back and visit soon.
