Cricut Made Store Logo


Hello! I've been tasked by my college friend to create a logo for her online jewelry shop. After seeing her original logo lay-out, I took the main elements of her original design and came up with the design above. With the help of Cricut Design Space, I was able to plan the layers and the colors for her approval before cutting it. 



The main focus of the logo is the treasure chest. I modified the image. I removed the lock. I used the contour function of CDS to hide the cut lines included in the design which serves as a guide where the lock will be adhered. I also used the slice function of CDS to remove the handles of the treasure chest. This function also allowed me to created more layers for the front and the lid of the chest, making it more dimensional. 

I stamped the brown trim of the treasure box with a woodgrain stamp from Lawn Fawn to create some texture. 

I added Pretty Pink Posh gems to the inside of the treasure box. 

For the letters, I cut two of each letter and adhered the letter on top of the same letter to create a chipboard like embellishment. I also did it this way since most of the time I am unsuccessful cutting letters on Cricut using heavy weight cardstock.

I pounced Versamark ink on the letters, poured black embossing powder to it, then heat set it. 


One of the fonts I used created holes as part of the design. Unfortunately, Cricut does not have a Contour feature for fonts. I was hoping to hide these holes so I can cut a third layer using glitter cardstock. Instead, I cut small strips of silver glittered cardstock and adhered this to the back of the letters to show through the holes. I trimmed off any excess. 

I used a shimmery cardstock for the cream version. I spritz pearlized water on the lavender version. I matted the logo with gold cardstock. 

I had fun creating this. Thank you for visiting my blog today. Please support my friend's business, Angel's Treasure Box. Have a blessed, brilliant and creative day!
