So much for my great start! There was definitely more time for crafting over the girls' Christmas break. *sighs heavily* Now it is back to reality. Here is a card I made for my mother's birthday coming up. I was supposed to use my oldest papers for a challenge in the Use Your Stash thread in the Cricut Circle. I chickened out by using the white side of them in my Imagine! I just couldn't use the plaids and florals that I found...so why is it that I have kept them this long???? Yep--I am a craft hoarder for sure. The word of the day is hoarder. I have tons of supplies that I don't use, yet cannot seem to part with for whatever reason.
Here is the card before I forget, lol:
I used A Child's Year for most of the cuts except for the lettering which I used the MS Seasonal Cake Art cart for. I also used Hopscotch and Imagine More to fill in the patterns. I am not exactly thrilled with how the lettering turned out, but I was short on time. I had created the entire layout on CCR (cricut craft room), but it would not work for me at the time I needed to make it. Instead, I was left with doing it on the Imagine screen, so sizing was a big issue. It turned out a bit on the playful side, but a bit off too. Teaches me to not procrastinate, I suppose!
Your card turned out really nice! Love the colors! Darn CCR scares me LOL.
ReplyDeleteThe card is fabulous!
