Close To My Heart Artfully Sent Cricut cartridge Fancy Frame card

Hello, friends!
Close To My Heart Artfully Sent Cricut cartridge Fancy Frame card
Today, I have a VERY purple card I made using the Close To My Heart Artfully Sent Cricut cartridge. Maybe it is my new purple Explore or the fact that the color of the year is a purple hue, but I am purple crazy over here! I need to tone it down though because I know it is not a color for everyone. I promise that this will be my last mostly purple card for a while.

 I got some questions about my stitching on yesterday's card and since there is stitching on this one, I thought I would share what I use. I have always used the Uni-ball Signo in white for my stitching. If you do not have one of these pens, you should get one!

 Here is the Explore file if you have an Explore==> Fancy Frame card file

If you do not have an Explore, the sizes and cuts used are below.

    I've always liked and been drawn to the color purple, so you can make and post as many purple cards as you want and I won't complain at all. Such a lovely card; thank you for sharing it with us.
