Homemade Goodies and Exploring Cricut DT Post

Good Morning Everyone,

How's summer going so far? I sure do have more time to craft and create. I am almost even caught up on Project Life! (well, almost)

For today's Exploring Cricut DT project I made a cute label and tag for some homemade chocolate banana nut bread Sara and I made for a neighbor.

This project just begged for the Imagine cartridge Kate's Kitchen! The retro themed images and colors are too darling to resist.
I chose the bread and butter image, cut it at 3" using the layer feature. After inking the edges I ran it through my Cuttlebug for a bit of texture. I also added foam tape to part of the layers.
Next came the "Made with Love" label and that was cut at 4.5" (no layers to this one) I added a twine bow and enamel dots.
The tag was also cut at 4.5" and had one layer which I added with foam tape. I added another tag, inked the edges, wrapped with twine and added a few more enamel dots. The sentiment is from Pink By Design's Home Sweet Home stamp set.







Please visit Exploring Cricut for daily Cricut inspiration. The Design Team comes up with some wonderful projects using cartridges and images that always amaze me.
Also... Another great challenge just up ahead... Be sure to play along.

Thank you for stopping by.
