Guitar Card

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!
 
Hope this Monday is going well for you! I found some time to play in my craft room with the Cricut! This card measures 5 1/2" x 4 1/4" and is white cardstock. I am using some scrap papers from previous projects. When I saw the challenge at BBTB2 this week, I had to make a card that would work for the Elvis's Birthday challenge. I also know someone who was born on the same day! The song that I chose is Guitar Man! Still love his music!

Cricut Cartridges:
Nifty Fifties - Guitar is cut 2.21" wide x 3" high. This is my first time to cut this image. I do like the way it turned out. I added white dashes with a Gelly Roll pen to add a little more interest. A second guitar is cut 3.75" high - this is used inside the card.
Birthday Bash - Star is cut 1.56" wide x 1.50" high.  First time to use this image.
Cake Basics - Happy Birthday is cut 4" wide x 1.48" high. This sentiment is used inside the card. The cartridge is available in Cricut Access and is my time time to use an image from the cartridge.

Cuttlebug:
Happy Birthday folder is used on the white mat. 
Swiss Dots is used on the red strip.

Inside the card!

BBTB2 -  Elvis's Birthday
Cut It Up - Ch 112 Out with the old, In with the new.

    LOVE the use of the Happy Birthday embossing folder on your mat. I have that folder but never think to use it. Perfect! Thanks for the reminder.

    What a nice coincidence to have the Elvis challenge just at the right time. I think the Nifty Fifties cartridge was really handy for this challenge. I love the guitar, BG paper and the star. You really "rocked" this challenge! Thanks for joining us at BBTB2.
