Bow Basket

 Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

I have seen so many pretty versions of this 3D basket. With Christmas still on my mind, I chose to make a Christmas themed basket. Perfect size for candy, cookies, or small gifts.

The Bow Basket is part of Dreaming Tree SVG Give a Gift Bundle that I purchased recently. I knew when I saw the basket, it would be my first project to do from the set. Finished size measures 3" H x 7" W x 3.5"D. I used the Paper Studio Yuletide Joy Paper pad. Love mixing the pretty patterned and plaid papers together.

Cuttlebug:
Anna Griffin Regal Braid  embossing folder on the red patterned paper on sides of the basket. I used the border folder from the same set to emboss the handle.

Paper Studio Spare Parts Brads - The two brads have Christmas trees on then.

I enjoyed making this basket! With a change of papers, the basket can be used for many occasions. Thanks for your views and comments!

Die Cuttin' Divas - Ch. 319 Anything Goes

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

It is time again for another fun challenge at Die Cuttin' Divas! Ch. 319 is Anything Goes. This may be one of the favorite challenges. Our challenges do require the use of a die cut!

 

I am late in making my blog post. We had very severe storms in my area on Sunday night. Just a few broken limbs at my house but many folks have had massive clean-ups with home damages and vehicle damages. My parents' place had lots of damage. Some areas have been without power for more than two days. Thankfully no one was injured. My Internet access has just been repaired. 

My card measures 5" x 7"  and is cut from white Colorbok cardstock. Other solid papers are Recollections and patterned paper is from K&Company.

Anna Griffin Mix and Match Folders - Calligraphy Frame is used on the pink paper. Happy birthday to you is embossed on the white paper. 

Eleanor Laces Cut and Emboss folders are used on the two yellow images.

Anna Griffin Vintage Florals - Carolina 4 flower group is cut 2.3" wide x 3" high. I cut two images and used pop-dots between the layers.

I Love You Valentine

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

It has been some really hard times for the past couple of weeks. My Mom has been very ill and sadly she spent her 87th birthday on Sunday in the hospital. She entered into Glory Land Thursday night. I am missing her so much but I am thankful for all the time we had. I have the promise to be together again.

This card measures 5" x 7" and is cut from Recollections Valentine's Day paper pack. I was able to play with some of my new Anna Griffin products.

Cricut Cuttlebug:

Anna Griffin Mix and Match Cuttlebug Set - Oval Scroll Frame and I Love You Die for the pink insert.

Anna Griffin Woven Daimonds folder - Used on the pink strip

Cricut Cartridges:

Anna Griffin Vintage Florals - These are Print and Cut images. Carolina 1 is cut 1.75" wide x 1.22" high. Carolina 2 is cut 2.16" wide x 2.4" high. I love the looks of the flowers.

Inside the card.

I used the Insert Shapes feature in Cricut Design Space to cut the 4" x 4" square for the inside of the card.

Anna's Lovely Layered Cards - The sentiment For My Valentine is written on the pink square using the Cricut Midnight pen.

The heart and bow are Anna Griffin images that were left over from another project. I did not record those sizes.

Die Cuttin' Divas - Ch. 300 Blue and Silver

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

It is time for another fun challenge at Die Cuttin' Divas. Ch. 300 is Blue and Silver with any die cut. 

I am playing with Cuttlebug folders and dies that were in a recently purchased Cricut Mystery Box. My card measures 5" x 7" and is cut from silver cardstock. The blue paper is from Colorbok Pearlescent Paper pad.

Cuttlebug:

Anna Griffin Mix and Match Folders and Dies - I used the Versailles Frame on the 5" x 7" blue pearlescent paper. The Get Well Soon die was used on the silver paper. The frame is pop-dotted on the silver card. This set has 4 beautiful frames and 12 sentiment dies. I can play for awhile with all these goodies!

Cricut Cartridges:

Anna's Elegant Embellishments 2 - The tulip flower is cut 2" wide x 2.2" high. This is my first time to use this pretty image. Actually it is only the second image of this recently purchased cartridge that I have cut. I do like the way it turned out! I added a blue crinkle ribbon on the flower. Thanks Karen at Little Scrap Pieces for the pretty ribbon.

For the inside of the card:

Anna's Elegant Embellishments - The tag image is cut 4.24" x 4.24" from the blue and silver paper.

Anna's Garden Cards and Embellishments - Warm Wishes sentiment is printed on the tag using the Cricut Midnight pen. 

Martha Stewart Embossed Zig Zag edge punch is used on the lower strip of paper.
