Cricut Christmas/Noel Poinsettia Card

  Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

I am back with another Christmas card! The paper is from K&Company Yuletide Die-Cut Cardmaking pad. This gorgeous double-sided paper pad was bought 2 or 3 years ago-one of those after Christmas clearance purchases. I finally convinced myself to cut it! The paper measures 5.5" x 9" and has the die cut shape on one end. Just fold it in half and you have the card! I do have some of the same papers in a 12" x 12" paper pad. 

Inspired by the card design on the front of the paper pad, I used the same pretty papers for my card. I cut the striped paper and layered it on the paisley and added the strip of green patterned paper at the top.

Outside view of the card.

Using Cricut Christmas/Noel cartridge for the images, the poinsettia is cut at 2.5". Pop dots are used to layer the flower and Gold Stickles are used in the center. The phrase Greetings and shadow are cut at 1". Lots of inking!

I am pleased with the way the card looks and may have to use more of this die cut paper.
Hope the card recipient enjoys this!

Cricut Christmas Cards

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

Today I am sharing my first card made using the Cricut Christmas Cards cartridge. I decided to buy myself a little early gift! lol This is an older cartridge (I think 2010) and the actual cartridge was sold out so I purchased the digital copy of this cartridge. I prefer the actual cartridge, but I really like this scene! 

We seldom receive snow is my area and of course I do not have a horse and carriage. Sometimes though we visit a town that is decorated so pretty during the Christmas season and they do have a carriage ride! It is such a fun way to see all the pretty lights and decorations!

Using Cricut Craft Room, the image and layers are cut at 5".  I cut the words Joy and Peace which are also on this cartridge but did not record the size. I chose to use Joy! Card base is red Recollections paper.

Designer paper is Recollections Naughty or Nice Paper Pad. I used four of the patterned papers. It may not show very well in the photo, but the green dot and holly paper have glittered areas. Other solid papers are from the scrap stash. Cuttlebug Distressed Stripes was used on the tree.
