Harvest Blessings Fantabulous Cricut Blog Hop

Hi everyone, welcome to Robin's Creative Cottage! Today is such an exciting day and I'm so glad you're here for the Fantabulous Cricut Harvest Blessings Crawl... Fantabulous Cricut's version of a blog hop! Woo Hoo!!

Leaves are changing colors, there's a chill in the air.... yep... it's "Fall" and everyone at Fantabulous Cricut is giving thanks for our "Harvest Blessings"! FCCB design team is creating Fall projects that includes Brown, Orange and Red – and as always with Fantabulous Cricut challenges we use at least one Cricut machine cut image.

If you've come from visiting my wonderful new friend Peggy at Daily Grace Creations, you're in the right place! Woo Hoo! If you've just happened across my blog and would like to play along with our Fantabulous Cricut Crawl, please start HERE.

Remember to check out each DT member's blog for some awesome inspiration! There will be PRIZES along the way at some of our DT members' blogs, AND there will be a Grand Prize up for grabs at FCCB for one participant that submits a "Harvest Blessings" project at FCCB!

I love how my "Harvest Blessings" project turned out. This is how my inspiration started... I knew I wanted to use acorns, and leaves just go with acorns... then the idea of my family being a blessing came to mind... I remembered that the Lacy Labels cricut cartride had an image with the word "family"... and that's how my thought process began and I got creating!

Here are the details:
This card is long and can fit in a legal #10 envelope (4 1/8"x 9 1/2")
Lacy Labels cricut cartridge was used for the base of the card along with the family oval image. Using my gypsy (and keeping all the "lacy label" layers grouped) I stretched the images to measure 9.25" x 3.82
I welded two of the base images for a shape card, then cut the same image to layer on top using brown craft foam for a raised or 3-d look. The base is brown Bazzill cardstock.
Pattern paper is an old Stampin' Up designer paper pack.
Everyday Paper Dolls cricut cartridge was used for the oak leaf, cut at 3 sizes (real dial size) 1.5", 1.25", 1"
Create A Critter is where I found the acorn image, cut two sizes (real dial size) 1", .75".
All images were inked using Tim Holtz vintage photo ink, the leaves were crinkled after inking.
I used small pieces of brown craft foam to pop up the acorns, a few of the larger acorns I used a double layer of the craft foam for extra "lift".
