Daily Challenge: Let's Get Cutting - FREE "Tangled" SVGs


Aloha and Welcome! It's "Let's Get Cuttin'" day for me, here on POM! I'm so proud of myself to put out these challenges, so I can work on my things without worrying that I just purchased them to collect dust.  Hah!  Sometimes, I just don't know when I can get a chance to play with them, though.  So every moment that I get a chance, I am blessed and Thankful to God for this opportunity. 

These cuts were requested by my gf's daughter.  She wanted to have some "Tangled" cuts for her daughter's birthday party.  I did a search on Google, because there isn't any Cricut Carts out with these characters (just yet - or maybe never). But Thank God, I was able to find me a page that offered some FREE SVG's of this movie!  I was so thrilled!! You can find these cuts and more at Jen's page here. Here is a pic of the SVG's she has for FREE for this movie:

You see there are a bunch of them.....  here are the SVGs I cut out on my Cricut, using SCAL version 2.  Most of these were pretty easy to piece together.  I was very pleased with the outcome of each cut!




Have a blessed day!!

Let's Get Cuttin'...


Howdy peeps!!!  How is everyone doing??  I feel like I am in a whirlwind, and I mean whirlwind of THINGS!!!  All kine things....  and it's SUMMER TIME!!!  What is going on??  Well, yesterday, I had my monthly TMJ appointment, and I forgot to bring my mouthpiece.  Grrrr... and I really needed to bring it in to give to my doctor to adjust, because a part of it is hurting my mouth.  Now, I have to schedule a time to go back in and have it adjusted, and although it'll only take 5 minutes to fix, it's about having to drive into town.  I guess I will just have to plan to head to Ala Moana afterwards and make my trip into town worth while.  Me n' the boys could probably cruise there for the morning, or something.  I was able to deliver some orders and catalogs to SU! customers as well. So it was nice to see those that I delivered to.

My older boy started Volleyball practice, and the younger one has 1 week left of Baseball. Not crossing schedules, but just feels like I have less time during the day to do stuffs.  The little one has a loose tooth that is not ready to come out, but I was going to try and pull it.  He was scared, and I myself was pretty chicken to do it.  Hahaha...  after carefully examing the tooth, I have determined that it isn't ready for pulling, just yet.  He'll have to jiggle it a few more times before it is actually ready for a real pulling.  Phew... saved!!
 
I have receive my recent order of Stampin' Up! products, which are pre-ordered products from the upcoming Holiday Mini catalog.  Ummmmmm... the box sits by my foot, unopened!!  I have other things that I have to do prior to opening that box.  Like making a sample birthday invitation "Safari Passport" style.  My niece's friend would like to order 130 of them!  Phew!!!  WHIRLWIND!!!  Of course, not to mention the dishes, the laundry, the this and the that ....  argh!!!  Ok...  crazy!!


Anyways, today's challenge to myself is called "Let's Get Cuttin'"... simply to use my die cutting machines and creating something, anything with them.  Here are the projects I created.  I purchased these pretty pencil holders from WalMart, and knew that I'd like to decorate it someway or another, and give as a gift to someone.  Last week, I had lunch with my 2 girlfriends, Wini n' Irene... yes, I would be sharing a picture right now, but they are both camera shy.  :o*  Actually, I kinda gave up with the taking pics of my friends... lol... the memories are embedded in my mind.  Although my memory isn't all that great, I know I had a great time because I want to hang out with them again.  :)  Anyways, Wini nor Irene don't want their photos splattered all over the WWW, so I did us a favor and left the camera home.  :)  We had lunch at Empress, and ate Dim Sum.  Irene let Wini and I pick the selections, and we just had a great time catching up.  It has been about a year since I last saw Irene.... or at least it feels like it, and 3 months for Wini n' I.  Irene got and earfull.

I used self-adhesive vinyls on these plastic holders.  The flowers are from Accent Essential cartridge.  Their names were cut using the SCAL.  I forget which font this is, but isn't it purdy???  Wini n' Irene were both happy to receive a gift from me.  I made it 15 minutes before I left the house to meet them.  The Lord is GOOD, isn't HE???  Praise God!!!

Anyways, if you wanna join me in this challenge, please add your link to the inLinkz section below. 

Thanks for listening... Aloha, Jen

Let's Get Cuttin' - Bracket Top Box - Freebie Cut File

Hey gang... Welcome back!!  Hope your 4th was a well rested, and yet fun with family n' friends kinda holiday.  Tonight, I will be heading out to a viewing of my Uncle who passed away due to heart failure.  He was old and weak, we knew it was coming, but still, it's so very sad to lose a loved one.

Well I am trying to find way's to motivate myself, in creating and using all the stuffs I have in my craft collection.  Because there are just too much, that I just want to do them all, but just don't know where to start.  So, I need structure!!!  LOL...  therefore I am gonna have "Theme Days".  It's a challenge to myself, but I'm gonna add a Inlinkz button to the bottom of each of my challenges, and if anyone plays along with me, I'll check out their projects, and comment on them too.  If I have enough players, maybe I'll even give a prize just for playing along with me.  :)

Today's theme is titled "Let's Get Cuttin' ".  I can use anything that will die cut anything... Cricut, eClips, Spellbinder, Silhouette, Big Shot... get the picture??  Yes!!  So if you wanna play along with me, create, and link up your cuttin' creations to mines!!

Here is what I created using my Cricut Machine, together with my Design Studio program, and both the George and Accent Essential carts.  Oh and guess what??  I purchased the Big Top Notes die cut from Stampin' Up!, so I'm gonna have to try that top with this box cut and see how it turns out.  Of course you can probably cut and make your own box.  But since I already have it all on my DS, I could use that right??  Oh for those of you that have that Gypsy, I also have it as a Gypsy cut file as well!!!  U R in LUCK!!!  :) 


I made this box for a friend who owns a massage company.  She was going to put some of her homemade soaps in them.  :)  They turned out really cute, and she really liked them, except I made a few others, and she just couldn't decided right at that moment which one she wanted to go with.  So she said that she'd get back to me later about that decision.  :) 

I have the cut file available for those that might be interested in downloading it.  Please note, you will need the following items in order to cut and use this cut file:
  • Design Studio Program or Gypsy
  • Cricut Machine and Mat 12x12
  • George Cartridge
  • Accent Essentials Cartridge

Click Here to Download Gypsy version of Bracket Top Box

I don't know if you know it or not, that I have a page compiled of all of my cut files.  That page is located here.  :)  Enjoy!!

Well, that is my creation for today's "Let's Get Cuttin' " theme... like I said, if you wanna join me and play along for fun, please feel free to do so.  Just create and add your link to my inlinkz section below.  May you have a blessed rest of the week!!!  Aloha!!!
