CRICUT CARDZ CHALLENGE #10


Cricut Cardz Challenge #10 is to make a Valentine's card using any cartridge(s) you'd like but using the colors green, lavender, black and white only.  I used CDS and Designer's Calendar for the heart and Opposite's Attract for the word love. The heart can be found on Page 29 Boxes Shift key. The word love can be found on Page 125 Shadow key. After cutting the heart in white cs I ran it through my Cuttlebug with the Swiss Dots embossing folder. I turned it over and using my Scotch packing tape, covered the openings. I flipped it over and sprinkled MS peridot glitter onto the sticky tape that was showing (saw this done by Joy from Holidays With The Cricut). The word love was cut using lavender cardstock and glued to the heart. The black cs was run through the Cuttlebug using the D'Vine Swirls embossing folder. I attached the heart onto the black cs, added a lavender ribbon and then attached this to a lavender piece of cs. Before attaching these layers to the green card front, I used my EK Success scalloped scallop punch along the edge. Then I took my tiny round hole punch and punched a hole in each of the scallops. I layered another piece of lavender cs on the inside of the card so it would set off the scalloped edge. Come join me and the rest of the DT at CCC by clicking here. We'd love to see what you create!
