Welcome to Glenda's Cards!
Happy Monday! It is time for another fun challenge at BBTB2! Our talented design team sister Stephanie is the hostess this week and she chose the theme Birthday and Pearls!
Many of the Cricut cartridges have a card feature with pretty and unique shapes. I chose to use a card feature for the base of my card for this challenge. Papers are K&Company double-sided papers which work really well for the card feature.
Cricut Cartridges:
Damask Decor - Page 64 - Gift. Using the Card Feature on shift, the image is cut at 5" for the card base. Card feature without shift is cut using another patterned paper for the top of the card.The gift shaped card will be a nice birthday card!
Wild Card - Page 61 - Phrase Happy Birthday is cut 6.5". This sentiment is seen inside the card. A personal message could be written on a mat and placed on left side of card.
Other supplies:
Seems like I am on a rosette kick lately! I wanted to dress up the front of the card and I found this small rosette which was too small for a prior project. It is made from papers from the same paper pack. Love these double sided papers because they coordinate so well! The rosette is cut 3/4" and measures 1 1/2" finished. I hand cut a small banner to place under the rosette.
Pearls are from my stash. Inking is Versa Magic Gingerbread.

Glenda, this is so nicely done. I'used this card cut before and I did not realize it was the same. Your details always make everything you do uniquely yours. That beautiful rosette perfect on the front.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card Glenda! I love this paper, it is my favorite with it's beautiful soft colors. This present cut from Damask looks so different from when I make it. lol All you little extras is what make your cards so fabulous and uniquely yours, like adding that rosette on the front. I would have never thought to do that and it adds so much to your card. Fabulous, just fabulous! Hugs

Hi Glenda -- your card is beautiful!! The paper you chose is so pretty -- I can see why 2-sided papers work so well. I have never used a card feature, so I guess I need to check those out!
