card a day --13


From Dec 12a, 2011

I used a retired CTMH stamp set for this card

From Dec 12a, 2011

Stamp images on white cardstock
and mat as shown

From Dec 12a, 2011

I know I say this every time, but
It is very important to remove the protective film from both sides of the card before you adhere anything.
Adhere the 5 1/2 strip to the inside (outside edge) of the card as shown.
(Note if you dont want the adhesive to show, adhere the mat to the back of the card and then adhere the patterned paper on the inside)

From Dec 12a, 2011

adhere the sentiment to the inside of the card as shown

From Dec 12a, 2011

Final Step
Close card, adhere image to front of card.
(center it over the mat on the inside)

From Dec 12a, 2011

View of the card open.
I appologize for the poor picture quality, but my editing software was giving me grief, so I quit fighting with it and just posted the pic as is.

12 days of Cricut--6


From Dec 10, 2011


I used the same recipe for this card as I did in the Card Challenge #11
However, I used the
Elemental paper X7141B
Snow Flurries  D1384
and cut the snowflake #1 (p.23) @ 2" and 1 1/2"
I also added some sparkles to it

(ignore the scribbles in the corner of the photo)

From Dec 10, 2011

Very, very important....remove protective film
from inside and out of the clear card.
attach the solid colored cardstock to back of card
(about 1/2" from side)

From Dec 10, 2011

Okay,
now find that 1" strip of patterned paper that you put aside, mat in on the cocoa

Clear Christmas Card 2


From Cards


The nice thing about owning the exclusive CTMH Cricut AP cartridge is that you can cut out a circular window anywhere on your card.  I love how this one turned out.
