Decorating the Nursery

Hi everyone! Ginger here with another idea for baby week on the Cricut blog. This theme came along with perfect timing for me as I am just finishing up decorating the nursery for our soon to be little girl. At this point most of the decorating is done, however I was noticing that there was an area under a large shelf in the nursery that was looking kind of bare. I thought it would be fun to put up a few vinyl clings underneath it to fill the spare out but was having trouble finding pre-made vinyl decals that matched the colors of the nursery. That’s when I thought about making my own with Cricut Imagine White Printable Vinyl and my Cricut Imagine machine.

I printed and cut out three tall flowers, a turtle, a frog, and a butterfly to match some of the other decor in the room. Thanks to the nature of the vinyl sticking the layers to each other and then adding them to the wall was super easy. The vinyl is repositionable so it was easy for me to make little adjustments in placement as I added them to the wall.

The flowers, stems, and butterfly were all cut from the Walk In My Garden cartridge. The Live Simply Lite cartridge provided the cuts for the turtle and frog, and the colors came from Imagine Elise(pink and deep green), Imagine Mr. Frosty (yellow, snowflake pink, and striped pink), and Imagine Yummy(green) cartridges.

These turned out so well and were so easy to add to the wall that I think I might just do another similar set to match on the wall across the room! I was thrilled at how well the Cricut Imagine Machine cut the vinyl and how easy it was to add so much custom visual impact to the nursery! I think the printable vinyl might just be a new favorite Cricut product of mine!

Trend: Bicycles

Icons with a vintage charm seem to be popping up everywhere lately . . . and bicycles are one of them! Whenever we see bicycles we think of leisurely rides down a country lane. It’s a little bit of a nod to simpler days when life was a bit slower, and people weren’t so anxious to rush around with their To Do lists. Cindy Royal shows us that it is as “easy as riding a bike” to add bicycles to our papercrafting, particularly cards. Check out her three samples showcasing three different types of bikes below!
