Today I have a card that I made using the NEW Summer Celebrations cartridge. This cartridge has several wonderful things that have a patriotic theme. You might have noticed this card on the Provo Craft site. They have asked to use some of my work for the website, so if you take a look through the look books, be on the look out for my things. Double the fun, right!
I often get questions from followers of mine about cards like this. They ask me what they would do with a '4th of July' card or a 'Halloween' card. Well, I like to use them as thank you cards. It may say 4th of July on the outside, but on the inside you can write a nice little thank you message.
I used October Afternoon paper. |
I cut this out at 4 1/2". |
The ribbon is from Papertrey Ink. |
One last thing...
If you paid more than $299 for your Cricut Imagine™ between 6/1/11 and 7/31/11,
Provo Craft wants to make sure you get the biggest bang for your buck. So they'll pay the
difference with a credit of up to $100 that can be used for anything on cricut.com.

Love this card. I may have to lift this and incorporate it into a scrapbook page.
Congratulations, so glad PC is recognizing your awesome talent! Love the card, as I do all of your wonderful designs.

Awesome, Awesome, Awesome!!!I really enjoy your work. The instructions are clear and usually really easy to follow. Thanks for all of your help. As a relatively new card crafter, I really need all of the help I can get. I love to do this, but I am just not as "creative" as some, so you have been a great help to me!!

such a beautiful card! I'd mass produce this one and send one to as many people as I could. WHY NOT send a 4th of July card?
I have been following you & Joy for quite a while now, and both of you have watched quite a transformation. You both are such an asset to Provo Craft & their products. We truly appreciate all that you do for us. I love all the info, ideas, and creativeness that you share with us. Thank you.

Thanks for the idea of using it for a thank you card.
really a cute card!
I just love anything 4th of July! This is super cute.
I love the font used on this card, I can think of great ways to use it. Thanks for showing it in more detail. Hummmm... the cartridge gos on sale - tomorrow. Yeah!
I love the detail and how thin the letters are that spell out 4th of July. Many say only the silloutte can cut out thin letters but the Cricut still rocks.
