On the Farm



I made this card for my Niece who loves to ride Horses. She turned 12 this year and has grown up to be such a beautiful young lady.  I think she will enjoy her card. I forgot that I wanted to take a picture of the inside after I had already written in it.  So used the erase tool on my editing software to blur what I wrote.  (that's why it looks funny).  I originally wanted to use the hat on the outside but didn't like the way it looked, so I just decorated the inside.

Campin Critters



I finally purchased Campin Critters Cartridge, I love it.  All of the cuts are so cute.  I used my gypsy to weld together two background pieces to make the card.  I made it large enough to fit in a 7.25x5.25 envelope.  I wanted to make it bigger so I could cut the Deer out bigger.  I love the way it turned out, so cute.

Recipe:
Cricut: Campin Critters, Deer cut at 2.5"
Ink: Evergreen Bough, Salty Ocean Distress
Sentiment: Just 4 Men, Pink by Design
Gypsy, google eyes, cuts from all scrap papers

Fancy and Free



I love they way these cards came out.  I made about 6 of them also for my stash, they were very time consuming becuase of so many pieces but I will for sure be making more of them in the future.  I wasn't sure how the Sentiment would come on on the Fabric paper, but It looks pretty good.
