Nautical - Cricut Anchor

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

I have been playing with one of the card features found in Cricut Design Space. Papers are from the scrap stash. Needing an inspirational card, the anchor will work well.

Cricut Cartridges:
Home Decor - The word Hope is cut 1.17" wide and .83" high.
Wild Card 2 - Life saver/anchor card is cut 9.72" wide and 5" high. The round shape of the card and layering makes it look life a life saver.

For a bit of interest, I added a twine bow and Gelly Roll pen markings.

Cricut Birthday Cake

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

Always needing birthday cards, I decided to combine two challenges to make this card. The card measures 5" x 6 1/2" and is cut from a blue card stock paper. The patterned cake/cupcake paper was left over from a previous project. Remaining papers are also from my scrap stash. Although I own many Cricut cartridges, I purchased a monthly subscription to try in Cricut Design Space. After a search for a birthday cake through numerous images, would you believe I chose a cake image that I actually own!! In fact, of all the cartridges that I used for this card, Decorate! Celebrate! is the only one that I do not own. I was happy to use Cricut images for those images depicted in the sketch.

Cricut Cartridges:
Just a Note - Birthday cake is cut 2.25" wide. 
Decorate! Celebrate! - Small green banner is cut .78" wide x.85" high.
Plantin Schoolbook - Oval is cut 4.75" high.
Pretty Pennants - Pink pendant banner is cut 6" high.

Cuttlebug:
Happy Birthday folder is used on the white oval.
