Just as I thought, we’ve spent 31 days looking at ways to use some of the Art Philosophy cartridge’s versatile Cricut shapes, but there are still so many left! Oh well, I can’t have all the fun – I’m sure you all are using your Cricut machines to experiment on the other 669 shape options that we haven’t even touched on.
Today’s artwork showcases a different way of using the Cricut shapes. We’ve looked at shapes that have been stamped with coordinating images, and shapes that have covered coordinating Dimensional Element shapes, but today’s cut shape doesn’t even appear on the artwork! Instead the circle shape has served as a mask to create a unique background using the spray pen.
Shape instructions: Cut the circle by pressing the far left button on the top row with your size set at 2 1/4". Remember, you can use the “Autofill” function on your Cricut machine to cut as many as will fit on your paper.
Love using it as a mask! What a great way to extend the use of your cut images' negative as well. Very thrifty! Thanks you for a month of inspiration. :)
ReplyDeleteVery cute ! I have to ask how you created the tree and witch, is it a stamp or some other technique? And what about the letters used in the word Halloween?
ReplyDeleteThanks in advance for the info

I love the simplicity and clean lines of this project!
ReplyDeleteAnonymous - the tree & witch look to be from the Close to my Heart Midnight Felt Shapes set.
ReplyDeleteJeanette - thanks so much for all of the new ideas for using the AP cartridge.
I must say I have enjoyed this round of posts...I stop back every now and then to get re-inspired.
