Life's a Party Episode #3

Wednesday, February 16, 2011 - 27 comments
Happy Wednesday,
WOW this week is just zooming by.

We're working on our 3rd video for the Life's a Party cartridge and we'll be making the really cool map on page 44 of the manual. I had some technical difficulties when I was filming the first 1/2 of the video and it wasn't until I edited the video late last night that I notice what I did....Yep I was totally off screen, but only at first...lol

So here is our video for today. I think the map is going to make an awesome door hanging for Ethan's party and I can then use it later in a layout. I'm thinking about adding ETHAN'S on a separate piece of  decorated chipboard and then hanging the map off that to put on the door. This was it would say Ethan's Pirate Party...ARRR matey ye know what I mean...lol I couldn't resist....



The Series:
Video #1
Video #2

I should have one more video for this series at the end of the week. Have a great day...

    Super cute map. I don't have that cartridge but I am watching on ebay to get it. Great idea to use the map in your scrapbook page. Thanks for sharing.

    You edit very well - great video. I like how you put adhesive on your pirate party title holding it with your tweezers - I always have trouble doing that - i'm so going to use this technique.

    Hi - so glad to find your Life's a Party series... I purchased this cartridge and dreamed of all the stuff I would make for my little girl's party but I am also new to Cricut in general. I am a little frustrated because I never know how to cut things to be the size I need/want. Would love it if you could do a tutorial on some of the other 3d cutouts - like one of the glasses, cupcake wrappers and crown and explain how you go about figuring out what size to cut things...
    Thanks so much in advance!
