Episode 217 - Gypsy Ruff Day Card (Create a Critter)

Happy Memorial Day Everyone!

I hope you are all having a fabulous day filled with sunshine and laughter!!  Today has been pretty low-key for us around here.  We had a BBQ on Friday night so we could just relax today.  I've been working on one of My Pink Stamper's upcoming projects (shhhhhh, it's top secret).  I also made a quick video for you guys this morning and it has taken me the entire day off and on to edit and upload it.  Sorry about that.  Many projects going on today!!

Don't forget that you have until tomorrow at noon to enter the Cricut Expression giveaway!!  So far there are only a little over 200 entries so your chances should be really good!!  All you need to do is make a Father's Day project and enter it HERE (click).  

I will add the recipe under the video box so you can see where you can order all the yummy stuff I used in this video.  :)

Adorable card!! Love the informational video! I will use my G more now because of the updates. You said your friend made a critter stamp set to go along with the cartridge....can you tell us where to get it??? Thanks!

Glora said...

I'm LOVING the hide contour feature too! This card turned out SO cute!!!

esivils said...

Great card! I have the PKS stamp set that goes with the Critter Cartridge. I would love to know if anyone has matched the faces up with the critters yet. I did the lamb and I was unsure which face went with it the best.

Ohh soo cute. I love the stamp face. I have the cart and just ordered PKS Critter faces. My Gypsy is caught in the mail, which is not making me happy but it will arrive eventually, I hope. Can't wait to play.

momof2redheads said...

That is really cute, I now have to go look at the cute animal faces, shame on you!

Scrapkat said...

Robyn,

This feature rocks! Ask Provo Craft why they don't upgrade the Design Studio to do this! I've played with a friends Gypsy, everything is just so tiny, I have trouble seeing the features on it. So, I'm sticking with the Design Studio for now. I just wish they would add this feature and improve the keyword feature. Since you've got a connection to them, how about putting in a good word for us Design Studio users. Thanks, Kathy

Marty said...

Cute card I love this cart, wish I could afford it right now along with yours and the Peachy Keen stamps. What an awesome trio for some cute cards! The Gypsy upgrade sure was a welcome surprise thanks for sharing the hide button.

Dawn said...

Robyn- this is soooo cute! I really want a Gypsy... but totally can't justify it costing more than my machine!

My 2 year old actually sat and watched this video with me, and start 'woof woofing' back at you when you said Ruff Day! Sooo cute!

Thanks for all the inspiration!

Deena said...

Love the cute card and thank you for showing the hide contour with the gypsy...looks very easy!

bkford said...

I would love to be able to NOT use the little faces on the Critter cartridge, but I do not own a Gypsy. Is it possible to NOT cut those faces on this cart, without the Gypsy?

Charlene-N-OR said...

Thanks so much for the quick card idea.... I just recently purchased this cartridge and havent had time to play with it, but will try soon. Just downloaded the update on my gypsy and it was good to know about that feature with taking out the cuts you don't want... Wonderful!!! Charlene-N-OR paper2scrap@yahoo.com

Neesey said...

Another A+ video. Great simple card. Now that I updated my G, I am going to try this out. TFS.

Linchanter said...

How fantastic is that! Now you dont have to print extra images! Like the layer on the rabbit that has the carrot and the flower...I can cut out JUST the carrot if I want!
I'm so glad I bought a gypsy last month!!!! Thanks Robyn. I probably wouldn't have realized what that feature was until you showed me.
