Butterfly Box

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

Do you like butterflies! When I saw this pretty Dreaming Tree project, I had to download the free SVG and make it right away!

Patterned papers are from K&Company Classic K 12 x 12 Paper pad. I love the pretty double-sided papers in this pack. Cricut Pearl Paper is used for the top of the box. This cut great on my Cricut machine and has a pretty shimmer.

Cricut Font Chloe - Love is written on the label with the Cricut Very Berry pen.

The little box will be good for a gift or candies. Also, I think a battery operated tea light will be pretty in it. Sorry, my photo did not show the flickering light.


I really like how this turned out! Thank you Dreaming Tree for the beautiful SVG.

Thanks your visits and comments!

Card for a Red Hat Lady

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!
Time to have a little fun with Red and Purple! I wanted to make a card for a Red Hat Lady. The pretty dark purple paper reverses to a light purple and works well for me. It is from The Paper Company and I purchased it a long time ago at a clearance price. Red paper is Recollections.

Cricut Cartridges:
Anna's Gracious Giftables - Teapot Holder is cut 17.73" wide x 10.6" high. This is the size recommended on Anna's blog which also includes a gift card image for the inside and a band to go around the card. This makes a large teapot, about 7 3/4" wide. I will size down the teapot image when I make it again. Red Roses are print and cut...size is 3.25" wide. I cut two with one image on flip. I did not record the size of the smaller roses used inside the card.
Anna's Lovely Layered Cards 2 --Tag is cut 1.837" wide x 3"high.
Anna's Lovely Layered Cards -- Happy Birthday Friend is written with the Cricut Midnight pen on the above mentioned tag.
Anna's Elegant Embellishments 2 -- Tag is cut 4.5" wide x 3.065" high. This is used inside the card.
Anna's Flourish Cards and Embellishments - Special Day Sentiment is written with the Midnight pen on inside tag.
I cut two lid images to have one for the backside. I used Cuttlebug Anna Griffin Woven Diamonds folder for the embossing.
Red Crinkle Ribbon from DL.ART is used to tie the sentiment tag on the teapot. Thanks Diana for the pretty ribbons!
