Happy Fall Y'all Card

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

I am pleased to see more great images have been added to Cricut Access in Cricut Design Space! When I saw this cartridge, I wanted to make a card. As usual, my biggest decision was choosing which images to use first! The card measures 5 1/2" wide x 4 1/4" high.

Cricut Cartridges:

Basic Shapes - Card is cut from Recollections brown paper at 5.50" wide x 8.50" high.

Rectangle is cut 5.50" wide x 4.25" high from DCWV Four Seasons plaid paper. A second rectangle is cut 5.25" wide x 4" high from the DCWV tree/leaves patterned paper for the top mat.

Everyday is a Holiday - I like the fonts of the Phrases and Word Art projects in the cartridge.

Truck with pumpkins is cut 4.333 wide x 1.771" high. I also cut a black out image at the same size from the brown paper. I did not want black or white windows so the brown paper works for me. The truck has been on a dirt road!

Phrase - Happy Fall Y'all is cut 3.596" wide x 1.83" high.

I added a left over leaf from a previous project to lower right corner of card.  

I like the way this card turned out! Hope you enjoy! Thank you for your visits and comments!

Ice Cream Sundae Cascade Card

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

I have had little time to craft lately. I am happy to finish this card that I am sharing with a few challenges!

Papers are Recollections--Most of it is from the scrap stash.

 

Cricut Cartridges:

 

Crazy Cool Cards -  This formally Cricut Circle cartridge was recently added to Cricut Design Space. I never was subscribed to that feature, so I am happy to see it now available in Design Space. If you are subscribed to Cricut Design Space, be sure to check out all the recently added Cricut cartridges.

Ice Cream Sundae Cascade Card is cut 13.796" wide x 7.429" high. The size includes the envelope. The handbook is not available on the cartridge handbook webpage. The cut size that I used makes a 5" high card...pretty skinny though, about 3" wide. 

Using Cricut Shape feature, I cut a 1.75" square from the white cardstock. I attached a sentiment to be printed on the square. A second square without the sentiment was cut.

Thoughts & Phrases - Happy Birthday is written with the Cricut Bluebonnet pen. 

I placed a 3/8" x 3.75" strip of white cardstock between the two squares and glued it together. This is placed in the section behind the sundae.

Cuttlebug Folders:

Swiss Dots - Strawberry ice cream. Divine Swirls on the Chocolate ice cream for some dimension.

This is my first try with the cartridge. Hope it is made correctly! Looks ok to me!
