My Sheri's Crafts - Ch. 195 Winter

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

Today begins a new challenge at My Sheri Crafts! Design team sister Sue is hostess of  Challenge 195 - Winter. She asks that we create a project that has anything to do with Winter: Christmas, snow, hot chocolate, etc. 

Some time back, I was lucky to win a SVG certificate from FCCB sponsored by The Dreaming Tree. So many pretty SVG files are available on the site and it took me awhile to choose. I chose the lovely Christmas Bendi Cards SVG bundle. As it was a Christmas selection, I am just now playing with the file. This is also my first try with a Bendi card. I love the image and how great it all went together. I used black for the Santa sleigh against the snowflake background paper that I had chosen. I used sizes as given in the instructions. I am really pleased with the results! Many thanks to FCCB and The Dreaming Tree

For Ch. 186 - Just a Chillin', I asked the team to do a project with ice cream. I thought an ice cream challenge would be cool and refreshing! Also, July is National Ice Cream Month, but I think ice cream is good in any month!

My Sheri Crafts - Ch. 183 Tags, Tags, and more Tags

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

We are back with a new fun challenge at My Sheri Crafts! Design team sister Raquel chose Ch. 183 Tags, Tags, and More Tags. She asked that we make a project that features a tag. I seldom make tags, but after viewing the Diagonal Double Pocket Card tutorial at Split Coast Stampers, I knew the card would be a good way to include tags!

The card starts with a piece of 8 1/2" x 11" piece of paper. I used pretty double sided papers from K&Company Sweet Nectar paper pad. The tutorial that I followed does not allow for the card to be opened. However instructions are given so the card can be opened. With the enclosures for the tags, I like the way that I made the card.

Cricut Cartridges:

Lacy Labels - Thinking of you label is cut 3" wide.

Gypsy Wanderings - Cupcake tag is cut 3.75" high.

Sentimentals - Tag is cut 2.25" wide x 3.75" high. I added another layer cut at 2.34" wide x 3.86" high for a shadow cut. Using the Add Text feature, Happy Birthday was printed on the tag using the Pink Crystal Pen.

Create a Critter- Flower is cut .95" wide x .74" high. The flower is added on the Happy Birthday tag.

The two tags shapes were also cut from cream paper. I glued that paper to the back of tags so a space to write a personal message will be available.

Pearls and ribbon from my stash were used to complete the card.

 View with tags lifted.

My Sheri Crafts - Ch. 177 Spring Fever

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

Today begins the new challenge at My Sheri Crafts! Challenge 177 is Spring Fever.  As Spring quickly approaches, Design team sister Peachy asked us to make a Spring related card or project. I always love the pretty blooming flowers of Spring, so I chose to make a card with flowers.

Cricut Cartridge:

Dimensional Scenes - Pretty Posies

After viewing the Poises Dimensional Card in Cricut Design Space, I wanted to give it a try. It is cut 14" wide x 10.96" high which includes an envelope. Ten colors of paper are used which can take a little while to make the choice of papers. Referring to the example card, I used similar colors but added more pink and burgundy. Most of you know that I love working with pink! I did not add dimensional foam dots between layers..just glued them. With so many layers of colors, there is still a dimensional look.

The card measures 5 1/2 x 4 1/4". Card base and envelope are cut using Keepsake Essentials- Reversible papers. The darker blue shade is used for the card and the lighter blue shade for the envelope. Other papers are from the scrap stash.

Although my card is not made using the Make It Now feature, I have noticed a card is now available in the Make It Now feature.
