Let's go fly a kite! Card made using the NEW Boys Will Be Boys cartridge

Hello, everyone!

Here is a card I made using the NEW Boys Will Be Boys cartridge. I fell in love with this kite as soon as I saw it. I heart kites! Anyway, this cartridge is one of my new favorites because I have a 6yr old little boy and there are not tons of Cricut cartridges dedicated to the males of the species.

This cartridge, however, is chocked full of cool boy stuff. My favorite being all the great word art. Complain all you like about Provo Craft, but they ROCK when it comes to word art as of late. I love love love it!



This is a 5" x 5" card. The cuts from the cartridge are all also cut at 5" and fit perfectly!



The paper is of coarse double dot by Bo Bunny and the stamp is from Papertrey Ink.



Have a great weekend and I will see you back here tomorrow with even more projects made with the new cartridges!
