My card measures 6 1/2" x 5" and is cut from green Colorbox cardstock. When I saw the pretty sketch at Card Patterns for this week, I was inspired to use the sketch for my card.

My Sheri Crafts - Ch. 86 Summer Lovin'

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

Yay! It is Saturday and time for a fun challenge at My Sheri Crafts! Our talented design team sister Peachy chose "Summer Lovin" as the theme for this week. Your project can be a card, layout, altered item, etc. With the kids now out of school for the summer, I made a kid friendly card!  My little guys like to kick off their shoes, play in the yard, and see what they can get into! That can be a lot!
My card measures 5" x 6 1/2" cut from brown Bazzill cardstock. The other papers are from my scrap stash.
Cricut Cartridge: Using Cricut Craft Room
Nate's ABCs
Page 52 - Boy 1 cut 3.5". X is cut .778"x.75". Phrase "is for X-tra fun" is cut 1.50".
I have not used the ABC cuts on this cartridge so I thought this one would be a fun sentiment.
Playtime is always X-tra fun!
Other supplies:
Spellbinders M-Bossabilities Flora
Inking

Stop by My Sheri Crafts and see all the different projects for "Summer Lovin" created by the design team. For more information about the projects, please visit the individual blogs and leave a little love.
