This was the short one’s Christmas present on Christmas morning. It is a 2 foot x 3 foot canvas painted pink and screen printed, using the YUDU, with a castle from the Once Upon a Princess Cartridge and the Cricut. I added embellishments along the top out of felt and a ribbon notion and I added in felt trees to the sides of the castle. We just recently saw the movie Tangled about Rapunzel so I decided to make her blond hair cascade down from the tower window, this was made by pulling apart yarn and tying a bow. The short one was so thrilled that we had to stop everything and hang it up in her room above her bed.

I took my the short one to see the Broadway production of How The Grinch Stole Christmas at Gammage and was so inspired by the set design that I had to make a holiday decoration Dr. Suess style. I loved the wreath in particular so I decided to whip one up! I used the Cricut to cut the shapes and then hand drew on the holly leaves and the bow.
I made this on the Cricut using the Gingerbread and the Trim The Tree cartridges. For the complete tutorial click here: Holiday Grinch Wreath How To

I made a cute little chicky Christmas Stocking for the Smallest One (my 1 year old) using the Cricut with the Create-A-Critter cartridge for the birdy and the Tie the Knot cartridge for the crown. I pared these with wool felt and a few fun embellishments to make a cute little stocking. When my oldest daughter, The Short One, was born four years ago I made one for her too so now it is a tradition. Oh what fun!

So far I haven’t gotten around to carving a pumpkin but I wanted them around so I opted to decorate my little pumpkins for now.
These are all made from cut sticker vinyl using the Cricut and the Pumpkin Carving Cartridge.
