I used the Cindy Loo Cricut cartridge to make the card. I have a lot of old unused greeting cards that I will cut the pictures are the wording and use on other cards that I make. Like on this one, I just cut the words with patterned scissors and glued on.
Be gentle, I'm still not used to using my cricut and I'm just getting the basics. I love cricut, it does so much. At first I was a little intimidated by it, but I've picked up on a lot of things by myself. I would love to take a class. I've seen so many cool things created with them.
On this next card I didn't use cricut but went old school This is my ode' to my grandmother. Just kidding, but it does remind me of her. I suppose it's the patch work part.
After folding a piece of card stock in half, I covered the front in a patch work style. I then drew a little cupcake on it and using embroidery thread stitched on some beads. I used the some pink verigated yarn for the icing and the trim. And what's a card without a little stickles bling.
On the inside, I used another scrap of paper cut with patterned scissors and stamped some mini cupcakes out of a piece of scrap and glued them along the edge. Alphabet stickers spell out the message.
I hope ya'll are finding joy in something you like doing.
Hugs....Tracy :)
