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!

Loving this Fathers Day card. Thanks for another great idea.
I wasn't sure about this wall decor cart at first as I was not thinking of its other possibilities (ie. not just wall decor!!!) but I see its quite versatile now.
Thanks Courtney.

What a great fathers day card! It could also be a good summer greeting card with that boat. have a great day!
The more I see, the more I'm loving the new cartridges. Wall Accents and More has the cutest swirls in all the graphics...I'm loving 'em!
This card is lovely! TFS!!
What a nice card, love that little boat and thanks for giving this cart some attention!
Melanie,
You guys are such enablers! ;) I love your card!!! I already love the idea of using this cartridge with vinyl (I have a new house to decorate), but how great if I could use it to make cards, too? And I'm such a newbie, I like the idea of only 2 layers. You're right: that font looks great, too (of course your faux stitching is what sent it over the top)!
Thank you so much for sharing,
Jennifer

This is such a cute card and would be perfect for a little boy card as well. TFS
Okay, I am now sold on the possibilities of "Wall Decor". At first glance I was not that impressed with the cart and did not feel it was my style but once again you have shown us just how versatile it can be. I really do like the font choice - the stitching is what sets it apart! Thanks for sharing.
Love this card. Love the colors and the boat!
Neat card. I do mostly cards so appreciate you telling that this would be a great cartridge for cards. Kay
I really like this - I have a hard time making manly cards, they usually look to plain so I end up adding stuff then they turn girly. I was not sure about this cart but it has alot of cool stuff on it.

Thanks for the chance to win!
Thanks for the chance to win. I don't think Wall Decor is going to be a favorite cart. It looks a lot like Gypsy Wanderings.
Thanks for the great father's day card! This cartridge will get more use than just decor
Great card. I would LOVE to win Straight From the Nest!!!
How cute, but simple. Thanks for showing.
Great card, good to know that a cart titled Wall Decor is really good for cards, can never have too many sources for cards. I can't believe that you are giving away SFTN, oh boy would I love to win that. I have my fingers and toes crossed, guess it will make it hard to walk and work with all of them crossed. LOL thanks for all you do - you know I love it.
