Welcome to Glenda's Cards!
I am happy to see the challenge at Die Cuttin' Divas celebrating Red Hat Society Day this week. Needing a birthday card for a Red Hat Lady, this is the perfect challenge! I have belonged to a group for many years now. I enjoy the fun dining outings and travel with the Ladies!
I am playing along with Melissa's pretty sketch at Tuesday Morning Sketches this week. Congrats on 500th Sketch challenge! It took awhile to decide on what to use on the sides. Noticing the Martha Stewart Gifts Edge Punch sitting on a shelf and realizing that I had never used this punch (like so many others), I gave it a try. I do like the results!
Cricut Cartridges:
Anna's Window Ledge Cards - Card is cut 7" wide x 10" high from Recollections Purple cardstock.
Using Insert shapes - Square is sized to 6.75" x 4.85" and cut from Red Hat Society paper.
White mat is cut 6.75" wide x 2" high.
Anna's Sophisticated Soirees - Flourish Label is cut 2.5" wide x 1.582" from purple paper. To make a shadow using the red paper, the label is cut 2.6" wide x 1.682" high.
Anna's Elegant Embellishments 2 - Phrase "make a Wish" is printed with the Cricut Midnight pen on the purple label.
Forever Yours - Hat is cut 3.5" wide x 1.723" high from The Paper Company red double-sided paper. This paper has a pretty fiber texture in it..may not be noticeable in photo.
For added dimension, the hat is pop-dotted on the card. I added D.L.ART red/white twine that I won from her blog. Red and Purple Sequins are from a win at SpiegelMom Scraps. Thanks to both of you for the wins!
Thank you for your visits and comments!

Fabulous Red Hat card! I was happy to see this challenge, too. The gals in my Red Hat group love to get together to make cards. Thought I'd pop over for some ideas. Love the artwork on your blog.
