cutting cricut cartridge images with SCAL

Hi everyone, this is my first how to video.  First off I have to say that I lost my flip video, so I've done this video with my regular camera.  Not so great but I hope everyone can follow along.  Sometimes I need an image that is not on a cartridge I own, well there is a way to cut that image with SCAL, hope you enjoy.

I have removed the instrustions due to the "uproar" this is causing.  Please however see the last comment I posted.  This is not something I do all of the time, I only use it for a cart that I don't want to spend $119.00 for or for cart that is not available to Canadians.  I want 6 of the Lite Carts, but only 4 carts are available at any of the Walmarts here, and they are not the ones I want.  I want the Martha Stewart ones as well, but guess what, we can't buy those in Canada either.  With this method I am able to have what Provocraft won't provide to us Canadians. 

HALLOWEEN FUN

I wasn't planning on making any halloween cards this year, but I saw so many wonderful cards I just had to start.  I used paper from K  & company, pumpkin pie paper from stampin up, unknown black paper for backing, all of the paper dolls were cut from scraps I had on hand.

You Only Get One Shot

This is a card I made for my brother who loves to hunt.  I cased it from the Cricut message board.    I used stampin up card stock, garden green, chocolate brown, gable green and close to cocoa.  The puppy was cut from paper pups and the background was from accent essentials,  oh the tag was from tags bags boxes and more.  The patterned paper was from a paper pack I got at Costco.  I don't have a stamp that says you only get one shot, so I wrote that in by hand.   I've yet to decide what I'm going to say inside; if you have any suggestions please leave them in the comments.

Cherry Lemonade Birthday

I've always wanted to try this card.  The tutorial is on Splitcoaststampers.com  I never tried it in the past as it looked too complicated, but it is really quite simple.  Card stock was odds and ends from Stampin up that I had laying around.  I used Martha Stewart loop punch on the side.  The cherries were cut at two inches from Stampin up card stock.  It's a little plainer than I wanted, but I am happy as this is my first attempt at this type of card.  HB of course stands for Happy Birthday (stamp from Stampin Up).

Anniversary card

Hi Everyone,
This is a card I made for my brother and sister-in-law's Anniversary.

I used close to cocco paper from Stampin up, and some pattern paper again from stampin up.  The image was cut in close to cocco paper with a chocolate chip background.  The green is certainly celery and is embossed with the cuttlebug, the folder is ___ script.
The image itself is from the wedding cartridge.

Hey did anyone notice there are two new cartridges available only from Creative Memories.

CHEERS

Hi All, this is a card I made for my hubby's birthday that is coming up next week.  Male cards are hard for me, but I like the way this one turned out.  I used stampin up Apricot Appeal for the card base, and layered it with Chocolate Chip (again stampin up).  The patterend paper was an unknown scrap I had.  I used the cuttlebug spots and dots folder.  The beer mug was designed and cut by me (if anyone is interested I have the cut file saved).  For the foam I used Fun Flock from CTMH and for the mug I used Liquid Glass from CTMH -- although it is hard to see in the photo, and finally inbetween the strips of the mug I used Stickles.  Cheers was stamped in Basic Brown from Stampin up and the stamp was from Snowflake Spot, again Stampin up.

Teachers Gift

This is a gift that my sister in law, and my niece made for a teacher.  It is soooo cute.  I think she used Locker Talk for this.  This is not a cartridge that I own, but as usual after I see something with a cartridge, I want that cartridge.
