Fathers' Day card made using the *NEW* Wall Decor and More

Hello. friends!!

Today is day 6 of projects made with the *new* cartridges that were released on Hello Thursday. Also today is the 6th day of prizes, so today I am giving away the coveted Straight From the Nest!! All you have to do to win is leave a comment on this post and make sure you are signed up to get email or follow this blog.

The card I made for you guys today was made using the Wall Decor and More cartridge. I think that is a cartridge for cardmakers! Every page in the handbook is an easy card in the making! This cartridge is also the easiest to use because it only has 2 layers. It is seriously an easy cartridge to use!!



I cut that sweet little sailboat at 2".


The 'D' was cut at 1 1/2". Then I cut the 'a' and 'd' at 1". This font is fantastic!! It cuts like a dream!
