I also made the same card using green Recollections cardstock for the card base. Other cuts were the same as above in the white card. An easy way to duplicate the design for several cards. I made two white cards and two green cards.

Decorating with the Greens

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

December has arrived and I have been working on a few Christmas cards! Card is 5" x 6 1/2"white card stock. Patterned background paper is from K&Company EB Visions of Christmas paper pad. These papers are so pretty and sometimes I hate to cut pretty papers. I chose this paper to give a night time look for the card. Solid papers are from my scrap stash. Gold papers are a shiny paper.

Cricut Cartridges:

Christmas/Noel - This is one of my favorite Christmas cartridges! There are so many pretty images.

The main focus is the door. It is cut 4.5" high. Wreath on door is cut 1.50" wide. To accent the door, I added two of the village lampposts which are cut 2.5" high. Using the same wreath image as on the door, I cut two wreaths at 1.02" wide x 1.00" high to hang on the lampposts. Star is cut 1.75" high. When thinking of Christmas, I am always reminded of the Beautiful Star of Bethlehem!

Jolly Holidays - Merry Christmas is cut 3.50" wide.

 Inside of Card

Inside the card is layered with a pretty scrap paper from Martha Stewart Holidays paper pad. The Holly Card image is also from Christmas cartridge. It is cut 4.50" wide. For the perfect finishing touch, I used one of the pretty stamps from Cardz TV "Home for the Christmas" set. I was so happy to have recently been drawn winner for her stamps! Thank you so much Mary!

My Sheri Crafts Ch. 102 Snowman or Snowgirl

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

Today begins a new challenge at My Sheri Crafts and it is my turn to choose the theme! Challenge 102 is Got Snow? You must include a Snowman or Snowgirl on your project!

Cricut Cartridges: 

Christmas Cards - Recently I purchased the digital cartridge on the Cricut Craft Room. I enjoyed using the window card feature for another card and decided to try it again for this card. The card and layers are cut at 5". Snowman and layers are cut 6.5".

Lacy Labels - Inside of the card- Love is cut 2.25".

The card is cut from red Recollections card stock. The pretty designer papers are from Recollections Memories Never Melt paper pad. I love these gorgeous papers! It was a hard decision to cut the papers but I do like the results! I thought the patterned paper with the words was perfect for the card window.

 Inside of the card.

The cut out piece of paper from the front window is used on the inside left to cover the opening, leaving a small space for a personal sentiment. Just had to use the right side of the designer paper on the right of the card. Did I say that I love this paper! The small snowman and snowflake are also cut from Christmas Cards but I did not record the sizes.

Visit My Sheri Crafts to see all the fun and inspirational projects by the talented design team and our guest designer. For more information, please visit the individual blogs and don't forget to leave a little love.

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.
