Blog Hopper.  To enter leave a comment on

 ALL the stops in this Hop. (there are only 5 

of us, so easy peasy)

For todays project Jenny sent all of the 

Design Team a few Action Wobbles to 

use this month. 

I made this really cute lime green monster

card with the Cricut Mini Monster cart.

This Monster can be found on page 29.

The black base of the card is 4 1/4 X 5 1/2.

With a purple background of 4 X 5 1/4.

I cut the monster out at 3" and used the

Martha Stewart Drippy Goo punch for

the bottom of the title block. The stamp is a 

good old Studio G $1.00 stamp. 

Here is what the Action Wobbles look like

from the back of the monster.

And here is the Wobble in Action!!

I hope you enjoyed seeing my fun Monster

card for today. Now please head on over to

I am so excited for the fall weather to be here 

because that only means Christmas is just 

around the corner!!

For today I made this really cute sucker treat.

I cut a piece of black paper at 6 1/2 X 3 and 

scored at 3 & 3 1/2. The Orange ovals are from

Tags, Bags, Boxes & More on page 83 

(blackout) and are cut at 3 inches. I found

 this cute Martha Stewart all over the page 

punch for the pumpkins face. I used my ATG 

gun to tape the top of the sucker holder closed.

And then tied a green ribbon to make it look 

like the green vines on a pumpkin. This would

make a really cute treat to give to all the children

in your child's class.  To bad my girls (12 &14)

are to old to take treats to school. It makes me 

sad that they are growing up so very fast.

For my second project I made this very simple 

card.  I cut my card base in black at 5 X 6 1/4.

The orange poka dot is cut at 4 1/2 X 5 3/4

and the black is cut at 4 X 5 1/4. I used the 

swirl cuttlebug folder to emboss the black.

The whites of the eyes are cut from Tags, 

Bags, Boxes & More on page 83 (blackout)

at 2 1/4, the gray is cut at 3/4 & the black 

is 1/2. The circle can also be found on this

cartridge on page 82 (blackout).

I am your last stop on this weekends hop.  I

 hope you had fun looking at all of the projects 

this weekend. Because I know I had fun making

them for you!!

I am so excited for the fall weather to be here 

because that only means Christmas is just 

around the corner!!

For today I made this really fun treat box. You 

could use it as a place card on your Thanksgiving 

table. The box was hand cut at 5 1/2  X 4 1/2. I 

scored it at 1 1/2 & 4 on the 5 1/2  side. And 1 1/2 

& 3 on the 4 1/2 side. Then you cut slits on the 

first two score lines only to 1 1/2. I know I 

probably confused you I will try to take a 

picture of my sample soon to give you a 

better idea.

The circle was cut at 3 1/2 from the Storybook

cartridge. It can be found on page 36. I used the 

swirl cuttlebug folder to emboss the front and 

back. I then chalked the embossing to make it pop 

a little more. The handle is 1 X 3 and the curly 

vines were cut 1/4 X 3.

For my second project I made a very simple card. 

I used the Artiste CTMH Cricut cartridge to cut the 

base behind the vampire. It can be found on page 71

and was cut at 3 1/2. The card base is 5 1/2 X 4 1/4.

The blue back ground is 5 1/4 X 4 and was 

embossed with the cuttlebug but, I don't know the 

name of this folder. The Vampire was a 

embellishment I found at Tuesday Morning. I 

knew I had to buy him because he was so cute. 

I am your last stop on todays hop and I hope you 

had fun looking at all of the projects for today.  

Make sure to come back tomorrow for more 

exciting Halloween projects.

October 100 Cart Blog Hop

Welcome to Erica's Craft Room 100 Cricut Cartridge 

Blog Hop Day 2. You should of come from my 

Design Team sister Melissa at:

http://papershenaniganz.blogspot.com/

If not please start at the beginning. 

http://mycricutcraftroom.blogspot.com/ 

Collectively the design team uses over 100 different 

Cricut Cartridges in their projects during the two days 

of this hop. Please hop along as the second half of the 

Design Team shares their projects for todays hop.

Erica is giving away 3 different prizes to 3 separate

winners this month! The first prize is TPC Girlfriends

pink papers, the second prize is the Pink Journey Cricut

cart and last is one Pink little Cricut bug toy. Good 

luck and have a great time hopping.

With Halloween just 24 days away I thought

I would make some really cute treat boxes.

I used Chic & Scary, Tags, Bags, Boxes & 

More, Accent Essentials, Hello Kitty Greetings,

Create a Critter & Art Philosophy Cricut Carts.

For the fist treat box I cut the box at fit to page 

and the witch at 2 1/2 inches. Both cuts are from

the Chic & Scary Cricut Cartridge.

 My second treat box I used TBBM and Accent

Essentials. For the triangle I used TBBM that 

can be found on page 125. I cut it with the fit to

page and the window feature button on. The box

ends up being 4 X 4. For the window on the box I

cut a sheet protector to fit. 

The circle can be found on page 32 of Accent 

Essentials and was cut at 5 1/2 inches. For the

 stars I used Create a Critter. They can be found

 on page 71 and were cut at 3/4 & 1/2 inches. I 

used my Uni-ball Signo white pen to add the 

dots to the hat for a little extra pop.

My last project for todays Blog Hop is not

a treat box but a fun Hello Kitty Jack in the

Box. The box is from TBBM on page 119.

It was cut with the fit to page feature and

on blackout so, no side holes were cut. I 

used Hello Kitty Greetings for the kitty 

that can be found on page 70. She was cut

at 4 inches. I cut her head and hands off to

make her fit in the box better. She has stickles

added to her bow, nose, paws & lolly pop.

For the Jack in the Box I made a spring like

we did when we were in grade school. Were

you take the two pieces of paper and fold them

back and forth at an angle on top of each other.

 I added stickles to the rosette to give it a little

extra pop of sparkle. The flower is cut using 

the Art Philosophy CTHM cart found on page 

29. I cut it out at 1 1/2, 1 1/4, 1 & 3/4 inches.

The BOO was also cut using this cart at 1 inch.

I used a Martha Stewart paper punch to add the

white loopy trim. 

I hope you enjoyed seeing my projects for today.
