Card Creating Tuesday at My Cricut Craft Room!

Click HERE for my Close To My Heart store where you can purchase the new Cricut Artiste Cartridge!!!




Hey All!!!

Today is Card Creating Tuesday over at My Cricut Craft Room!

For today's challenge, you can create ANY CARD!!! Woo Hoo!!

For my card, I wanted to make a card for my hubby to say just how much I love and appreciate all that he has done for me lately! He is not into "lovey dovey cards", so I had to make a fun one for him!

Here is what I came up with:



I used my Gypsy, Sweetheart Cartridge, Paisley Cartridge, and Sesame Street Font Cartridge to make this shaped card!!!

How cute is it??

Here are the screens on my Gypsy showing how I welded and made this card!!

 
First, I found the image I wanted to use. Once I found the image and figured out how big I wanted it, I duplicated it, flipped it upside down, and moved them together until I was happy with the placement. Then I hit the weld button.

 
Next, I printed another layer to place on top of the front of the card, so I could create the frog/toad in my layers. I also made my sentiment for the inside. All of the 3 parts of the sentiment are welded together for easier placement!

Finally, I printed the rest of the layers (eyes, crown, belly) and then placed them on the card.
 
 
I cant wait to give hubby his card!!! I also hope my card inspires you to work with your Gypsy and create some beautiful cards and projects!!!

OK all! Hope to catch you Craftin' and Stampin'!
