Explore card made using the NEW Live Simply Cricut Lite cartridge

Hello, friends!!

I have another card made using the NEW Cricut Lite Live Simply cartridge. This cartridge is lots of fun!!



Both cuts were cut at 1 1/2". I used Bo Bunny Double Dot paper.



To make the faux stitching I used my white Signo Uniball pen. The ribbon is from SU!



Make sure you check out what awesome creation Joy has up today. It is another card made with one of the new Cricut Lites....you are not going to want to miss it!
