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.

My Sheri Crafts - Ch. 182 Accessorize

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

It is time again for another fun challenge at My Sheri Crafts. This week design team sister Sandy chose Ch. 182 Accessorize. Sandy asks that we add pearls or bling, or both to our projects. I chose to make a card for one of my Red Hat friends. My card measures 5 1/2" x 4 1/4" cut from Red Recollections cardstock. The Red Hat Society paper has been in my stash for awhile.

Cricut Cartridges:
Forever Young - Hat is cut 3.75" wide from the red and light purple papers. The hat is pop-dotted on the card.
Anna's Lovely Layered Cards - Sentiment Happy Birthday Friend is written with the Cricut Midnight pen. Using Insert shape, I added a square which I changed to a 4.75" x 3.35" rectangle for the sentiment to be written on. This is used inside the card.

 Recollections rhinestones, a purple flower, and purple sparkly trim was added for the bling! Of course a Red Hat Lady has to have the bling!
