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.
