Item 3 for Cricut Challenge #1

Item 3 for Cricut Challenge #1 Is make a 3d Object using a font cartridge.

I made this little Scrapbook Display Frame using

Mini Monograms. When I cut the turquoise squares with slots I was intending to make a box shaped ornament, but quickly changed to something else.

I cut all the squares at 4"; 4- with slots and 6- just squares. The plain squares had to be cut using real dial size.

The flower on the cover was cut at 2 1/2" and the circle "a" at 2". The small flower on the back cover was cut at 1 1/4" and the circle center was punched out with a 1/2" circle punch.

I used turqouise grosgrain ribbon to attach the Initial flower to the front. I used 4 coasters to make the covers. The Designer Paper was some I recieved cut as a christmas present last year I do not know the maker.

I traced the coasters to make the covers and then trimed the tips off with a corner rounder not all the way inserted. I sanded the edges a bit after attaching the cardstock and paper to the cover. The Silver Glitter ribbon I used for the binding was a purchased from Wal-mart clearance after last Christmas. I threaded it through the slit squares and then spaced the gap about 1/4" and attached the ribbon to one coaster centering them on both ends. Then I attached the second coaster using super tacky tape I bought from Taylor Van Bruggen's Blog. It is similar to the red super sticky mounting tape. The 6 plain squares were then attached to the backs of the sloted squares and the coaster covers inside using tape runner glue.

I didnt put pictures in this yet, but I intend to finish it for my DD as a gift.

Until Later ... Happy Stamping!
