Imagine That!

Welcome to the Imagine That Blog Hop! If you arrived here from Nadia's blog, you are in the right place. If not, click HERE to start at the beginning - and trust me, you'll want to! Tons of great projects using the Cricut Imagine are available for your viewing pleasure. The grand prize for the blog hop is TWO awesome sets of stamps - one from Peachy Keen Stamps and one from Scrappy Moms Stamps!! Just leave a comment at each stop in the hop to be entered.

My first project is a card using the Country Carnival Imagine Cartridge. I love how easy it is to put together a card using the Imagine!


For my second project, I made a recipe mini album using the Kate's Kitchen cartridge. The actual book is constructed out of red #10 envelopes and chipboard. I cut all of the patterned paper pieces and images using Kate's Kitchen. The spine is covered with sticky back canvas that I printed on my imagine! I love that I can now create printed fabric that matches my patterned paper!!!








Now, I also have some blog candy for a lucky winner! Just leave a comment below - would love it if you followed me as well... for a chance to win this stamp set. We all need some laughter and happiness in our lives and that is exactly what this set is all about! :) The winner will be announced on Tuesday, March 29.



Thanks for joining us for the hop. Now you're off to Lezlye's awesome blog!

  55. I am soooo inspired, it's one o'clock a.m. my time and I'm about ready to whip out my Imagine and start working! My hubby would think I'm nuts! LOL Maybe I should save these hops til morning so I'm not so excited. LOL I have the CC cartridge and had no idea what I could do with it. Could you please give me a little info on how you used it to create that awesome card? Also, your recipe book is just adorable. I love that cartridge too and really want it for my collection. Please shoot me an email or leave a comment with some guidance if you get the time. TFS and for the stamps. I really love expression stamps. Use them daily!

  56. Your card is really pretty but I'm in love with your mini! Mini albums are one of my favorite things to create and I love that yours is for recipes! What a great gift that would make for a friend or newlywed. I don't own an imagine yet so I'd have to be a little more creative but I have the From My Kitchen cart so I think I can come up with something. Thanks for the inspiration and for offering a chance to win some cool blog candy! I'm your newest follower.
