Today I have a home decor piece made using the Fun in the Sun cartridge. This cartridge has a lot of great cuts including this sandcastle!
Here is the Cricut Craft Room file: http://www.box.com/s/462ls5bg6qmehmeogqyh
To make this I painted the canvas with aqua and sand colored acrylic paints. Then I cut out the sandcastle and popped it on with dimensional adhesive. Could it get any easier than that? I think not ;-)
Have a great day and we will be back here tomorrow!
January promotions:
The January stamp of the month is called Little Reminder and coordinates with the Art Philosophy cartridge. It also has some great number and sentiment stamps! As usual it is $17.95 if purchased alone or only $5 with any purchase of $50 or more!

Nice job on the sand castle, I am so anxious to get warm weather back here in Maine....couple more months to go before I want to even be near a beach and make a sand castle, so I guess mine will be in a card too.

Wow! Now that's a creative use. I never would have thought to put scrapbook paper on painted canvas like that. Love the idea! Now so many other canvas design possibilities pop in my head. :)
Sandcastle is just too cute. Fits right in with our family beach days which are very common during the summer days.
Looks like artwork and perfect for my Master Bathroom which has a beach/sandcastle/seashell wallpaper theme.

Canvas, huh! For me that's a stretch.
This is a great idea! Thanks for sharing! :)
Would be great for a kids room.
These ideas are just lengthening my 'must try' list
Sandcastle... makes me want to go to the ocean... with a huge window to watch the ocean while I stay inside and make cards. ;-)
My DH loves the ocean... to walk in the sand. Today is his birthday. Happy Birthday hubby! Me... just let me look from inside.
That castle is so cute! Thank you very much for all you do!
Cute castle!! I need a reminder of the beach right now with all the cold weather and snow by me :) TFS!!

What a great home decor project -- thanks!

I love your ideas, I am always looking for more masculine cards, so loved this one.

What a great cut - I can see making Disney castles, medieval castles, fairy castles - not just sand castles. Thanks for pointing out that cut.
As a Christian, I would love to be able to make things for them with that New Testament Cartridge. Please pull my name!
Great idea, thanks for sharing.
I am also enjoying all the variety and different ideas that help me make use of the cricut
I have a big canvas that I can work on , love the ideas I get on this blog!!
Loving the canvass. Thanks for the inspiration.
one word.... Beautiful
Great idea!! TFS!
Love your canvas art. It makes me feel all warm inside..
marg0006@verizon.net
Wow I love the New Testament cart. I had requested Cricut do a cart with various scrolled crosses like the Love Struck scrolled and intricate images.
But the images on the Testament cart are a close second. I really love the images and what can be accomplished as a proclamation of my faith.
Super cute! Would also love this idea in a scrapbook or for a card! Thanks for the inspiration!
Lots of great ideas..very creative!
Cute card! I am excited to use paint now on my cards!
Great creativity
nice idea for home decor

Darling beach card. Love!
Fun. There's something that looks like sand you can use for texture - can't think of it right now.
I love this idea. Thanks for always sharing such great ideas.
I love this idea for a beach picture. I have tons of snapshots from the beach that could be dressed up with an idea such as this.
