EOS Stocking Stuffer Christmas Cards
Cliff Notes:
- For the EOS containers, you want a 1.460 inch circle
- SVG Can be found here (More svg options at the bottom of the page)
- To attach the EOS, you need to open it, put the back through the back, and then put the lid on the top front.
- See the Easter versions of these here.
For the EOS containers, you want a 1.460 inch circle
At the top of the tool bar, under the lock, you can change the size by typing in numbers.
Then I created a 5.5 x 6.9 White rectangle, and sent it to the back. I added the text "Merry Christmas". Looking at my list of 6 fonts that write in cricut, (That list now has over 100 fonts to choose from) I chose Simply Glamorous. Don't forget to switch it to write, over on the far right menu.
Next select the red nose, and the white background, and choose slice. This will cut the hole in the white card stock, for the red EOS container to stick through. You can delete the red and white circles the slice created, I left the red one in the photo above, but you will not want that to cut.
Then last, select the writing, and the white rectangle, and attach. If you do this sooner, you will not be able to slice. If you forget to do this, it will not write where you want it on the card.
Here's another example. I started with this file from Love SVG:

Ungroup. Delete the musical notes. Create 3 1.460 circles. Resize the images until it looks like the circles will work as the "noses". Then on each image, ungroup, and ungroup, and ungroup until you can delete the noses and rotate and remove the rest of the facial features. I rotated the snowman's hat too.
That left me with something like this:
The next step takes a bit of time. It's not hard, but you have to ungroup, ungroup, ungroup... so that you can slice. You can only choose slice with two images selected at one time. So if two images are grouped, and you chose the circle as the 3rd image, it will not slice. Ungroup, ungroup, ungroup. At this stage, I decide I did not need the pink face for santa, and I removed that completely. Once the first slice is done for each face, I regrouped each face, so I can move them around without messing up the design.
Then I repeated the process of creating the rectangles, adding the text, and slicing the "noses" out of the white rectangles as well - leaving me with what you see above.
