My First Cartridge Showcase -- Nifty Fifties!

Welcome to my first Cooking with Cricut Cartridge Showcase --  NIFTY FIFTIES!

First up is a ROCKIN’ layout!

It was fun to use large sized cuts to accent the pages and play off of the photos! 

Layout created with Cricut Craft Room

 

For the layout --

Route 66 sign (page 38)

Hotel Sign (page 49) was personalized using the

Nifty Fifties font with the name of the school.

Juke Box (page 56)

Car (page 24)

The sign’s background was created using the Cuttlebug “Swiss Dots” embossing folder.

This cartridge is very versatile; you can make layouts (like the one above),

decorations, and cards for girls…

You’re the Cat’s Meow Card

For the card --

Cat (page 23) was cut at 4”.

Instead of cutting the small whites of her eyes

I used a Signo White Pigment ink pen (UM-153).

Her collar is Magenta stickles.

The white background was created using the Cuttlebug “Seeing Spots” embossing folder.

Stamp is My Pink Stamper More Punny-licious using VersaFine Onyx Black ink.

And cards for Dad……..

Crusin’ By Birthday Card

For the card --
Car1 (page 24)

I really like how using the shimmery silver cardstock looks!

The teal background was created using the Cuttlebug “Seeing Spots” embossing folder.

A Black Glaze pen was used on the tires to give them a shinny look.

Inside sentiment created on my computer.

And cards for friends……..

The Poodle’s fur was created using Marvy’s Snow Marker pen and a heat gun. (My first time…)

The possibilities are endless with the Nifty Fifties cartridge. 

It has a fun font and lots of images that can be used for a variety of events!! 

Images include everything from a sewing machine to a Tiki Bar sign! 

Remember the pink lawn flamingo’s???? 

Yep, they are in there too!

Just looking through the booklet I’ve come up with other ideas for cards and layouts…stayed tuned….you’ll be seeing more of this cartridge!
