Vinyl Pirate Ship Candy Container

When Fantabulous Cricut posted the blog hop/challenge to use vinyl I thought oh no. Then I found the vinyl I had rcvd from Cricut in a shipment that was not for me and I yes I did phone them & let them know & they told me to keep it. Well, it is white magnetic vinyl and requires the deep cut blade which I thought I had one of but cannot find so perhaps it is somewhere in my craft room not to be found easily or I did not have one at all. Then I found the black vinyl I had bought along with some white & blue and never used.

So, the Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow fan I am decided to make a Clean & Simple CAS creation using the black vinyl.

Used Life's A Party Cricut cartridge to make the Pirate ship. I used blade setting 6 and pressure 2 for a "kiss cut" so I would not have to use the transfer tape. It cut on the first try. Carefully removed the image and the recycled medicine/pill container was becoming a Pirate candy container.

Stamped K Andrew Designs Pirate Tales & Fish Scales sentiment on Avery all-purpose label.

Filled with Hershey candy and tied off with appropriate black & white glitter skull ribbon.

Now, I'm ready to try another vinyl project.

Cricut cartridge: Life's A Party 2" Pirate Ship settings blade = 6, pressure = 2

Captain Jack Sparrow and a Pirate Ship in a Bottle

me. The Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow is
artwork by my daughter.

Gift Pkg Shaped Thank You Cards

Created these Clean & Simple Gift Pkg Shaped
Thank You Cards to send out to thank for Christmas
gifts & my daughter's birthday (her 20th birthday
was 12/27) gifts. They are similar to the Birthday
Card made & posted on 12/29
Gift Pkg Shaped Birthday Card
but these have a Thank You sentiment tag & no glitter.

Used Life's a Party Cricut cartridge Gift Card option.
Seem to be in my fav color mood of blue & white. You
can see the light blue since I did not use glitter on these.

Daughter wrote her thank you note on inside right side.
Hubby & I wrote our thank you note and New Year
wishes on inside left side.















Celebrated daughter's 20th birthday 12/27.

In the morn we enjoyed the new Sherlock Holmes movie.

Daughter before opening her 20th birthday gifts.
If you look carefully some of you may remember
the easel style birthday card I made awhile ago in
center foreground. Also, she likes Owls so I could
not resist the felt Owl bag that I bought at World
Market and some of you may wonder why I did
not make one myself with my Cricut well this one
was only $2 clearance priced in the after Halloween
sale and it was not even Thanksgiving which is what
the tag indicated it was. The cake box in the center
foreground was given to daughter on a prior birthday
so I made use of it again.


















Daughter before she blew out the candles on the
birthday cake I made. Used a Hershey cake recipe
that I had not made before. Cake was fudgy but tasty
nonetheless.


















Celebrated daughter's birthday with a friend that she
has known since the 4th grade (they are not boyfriend
girlfriend but best of friends). Had lunch at her fav
Japanese restaurant where she has been going for
many yrs to celebrate her birthday. They photograph
& put it in a folder for you to keep.
