So many people have been sharing their cute little tealight cakes that I thought I would give it a go! Most of the ones I have seen use scalloped punches to make their base and top piece of the cake. I decided to use SCAL's basic shapes- obviously the scalloped circle- cut at 2.25" and then I placed a .4" circle in the center, so that when it cut the shape there was a circle in the middle to fit over the flame. I used another 2.25" circle as the base- this time not folding down the edges. The striped strip is 5" long by .75" tall and the little border is also 5" long, but .4" tall. That came from SVGcuts.com- one of their free files! The box in the background is also an SVGcuts.com file! I adjusted the size so that the bottom square was 3" across to be the perfect size for this little cake:)
The paper stack is DCWV's "The Carnival".

Tote Happy! Using "A Child's Year" monogram for fabric totes
Ok, same as previous post except that I used the Monogram function from "A Child's Year" cartridge! These are for my daughter's teachers because it's Teacher Appreciation Week!

Fabric embellished totes using cricut
I have fallen in love with my cricut for the third time... paper, then vinyl and now (and finally) FABRIC! I used permanent heat-n-bond that I bought at walmart and then ironed onto the fabric. Then cut my fabric using my cricut and ironed the shapes onto the canvas bags. I am going to make some of these for the teachers for teacher appreciation week next week! These are for me and my two oldest girls. :)
