BBTB2: Cricut - Disneyland T-shirts

I have two projects for our challenge at Bitten by the Bug2 for the next two weeks.  The theme is "something new".  It can be a new technique, item, or new paper, whatever you choose.   Here is my 2nd 'new' post, t-shirts we made for our recent trip to Disneyland.  The girls got to select what image they wanted and color of shirts.  I cut out the HTV, and the girls did the ironing and peeling.  They all turned out nice and they got to go home with a great souvenir.

BBTB2: Cricut - 'Let's Party Glittered Card

Do any of you attend Scrapbook Expo?  I have been to the Pleasanton, CA and Santa Clara, CA events several times.  Are you like me and spend a lot of money and then forget about the products you thought you couldn't live without?  My project for today uses something I got at Expo two years ago and never used.  I even watched lots of videos about the product but still never used it.  The product is double sticky tape that is 1 1/2" wide.   I used it for the first time to make glitter paper for my Cricut cuts.

That story leads me to our Bitten by the Bug2 challenge for the next two weeks.  The challenge is "something new, (product, cut, technique, material, etc.)".   Link up your challenge entry HERE.  I'm glad I created the glitter paper from the double sticky tape as I hate putting glitter paper into the Cricut mat, glitter ends up everywhere and the blade dulls really fast.

I peeled off the paper and put the first sticky side of the tape onto cardstock using only enough for the size of my die cut.  I left the second side of the tape with the backing on.   I cut the image, in this case, the "let's party" and then peeled the cut off the mat.  I put the cut on a new piece of paper, peeled off the top cover.  Then I poured fine glitter over the cut, using my finger to burnish it into the cut.  It doesn't flake off like other glitter paper.  I was really happy with the results, and the brightness of the glitter is really cool.  My finished cut went onto a card for New Years 2020.

BBTB2: Cricut - Happy New Year 2020

Twenty years ago I was sitting at work at midnight, waiting for the new century to crash all of our computers and all the phone company systems to cease working.  Of course, that never happened, and I missed a few good parties that night.  On the other hand, I got to keep my job, and I was close to home so could still celebrate before going to work.

Now into the 3rd decade of the 2000's, it seems life goes by at a much faster pace. I hope not, as I just can't keep up with my crafts and home projects.  I'm going to try and put in a major dent this year in using up my stash.

Meanwhile, over at Bitten by the Bug2, we are kicking the new year off with a challenge.  It runs for two weeks, and the theme is "clocks".  As you see, I choose a New Year's party theme, but my design team did not.  Go on over to Bitten by the Bug2 and add your "clock" created with your Cricut.  Let's get this new year started right!!
