Inspired by Donna Mundinger and Kazz!

I get a lot of ideas looking at the Cricut message-board...and this card is no exception. Donna has a lovely Christmas card on her blog, where she has stamped a snowflake on acetate....and Kazz out a picture on the messageboard of an easel card with the hibiscus cut from the Storybook cartridge. I merged the two elements, and this is the result! The pink frame is cut from Stretch your Imagination.

Bat Mitzvah

A friend asked me to make her a Bat Mitzvah Card (up until then I had only heard of Bar Mitzvah..excuse my ignornace!)

I sought advice, and was told that the Star of David from the Joys of the Season cartridge would be appropriate, and that good colours would be blue and silver. I used Opposites Attract for the lettering, which I welded together in Design Studio. The silver frame is from Stretch your imagination.

Birdhouse

This is cut using the card feature on the Stretch Your Imagination cartridge.

Cheer up dad!!!

This is for my dad from the dog!!! Inside it's going to say; "if you were a dog you'd be 560!!"

The letters are from A child's year, the dog is from Paper Pups, and the balloon is from Stretch your imagination!!

Christmas Bells

I thought that the background paper (by DCWV) was just right for this card. I cut the bells from Stretch your imagination. I welded them together in Design studio, and then cut the handles off. I gave them some shape by raising the centres up with a foam pad and gluing the edges down.

Ho-Ho-Ho & Let it snow

I have really started to enjoy welding the elements of the card toether in Design Studio, and then layering it up with regular cuts. Here, the tree and Santa are from Doodlecharms, and the snowman is from Stretch Your Imagination. All of the lettering is from Plantin Schoolbook. The snowflakes are from Christmas and Speaking of Winter.
