Snow Play Layout

Although it never snows where we live, I have scrapbooked a surprising number of snow themed layouts. What surprised me even more is that I have never titled one Snow Play (at least since I started my blog in 2009). So I guess this layout title is past due! The photos were taken on the third day of our 2018 Mammoth vacation. After cutting out the circle photos, I used the leftover scraps to cut out the title and the snowflakes on my Cricut. I don't think I have done this with photos since before I got my first Cricut, so it was a fun technique to use again, and I love that the snow pattern gives a little more interest than plain white cardstock.

Recipe:
Fresh Air papers
New England Ivy cardstock
Vellum
New England Ivy, Toffee & Glacier ink
Simply White Nuvo Drops
Cricut Artiste cartridge: title
Cricut Accent Essentials cartridge: snowflakes
Pattern: EMS Sketch Challenge #78 turned upside down

Challenges: Cut It Up Challenges #328 Starts with a C - my C is circles; I used six circle photos and a patterned paper circle.

What setting do you use on the Cricut to cut photos? Great tip by the way!

Connie, I just find a cartridge/image set with a circle on it and stick my photo on the mat. I used my Cricut Expression, so no special settings on there, but you could probably use the cardstock setting if you have an Explore Air or Maker. Hope that helps.
