Just a note to brighten your day card made using Art philosophy and April Showers mini

Hello, friends!

Today's Bitten By the Bug 2 challenge called for a project using an umbrella from any Cricut cartridge. Well, there are several cartridges that have such a cut, so I had a lot to choose from. I used the search function on the Cricut Craft Room to narrow it down. It is such a life saver sometimes! I ended up using the April Showers Mini with a little bit of Art philosophy sprinkled in as it is my go to utility cartridge.

For the sentiment I used the Card Chatter - Sympathy stamp set.  If you are looking for a great sympathy stamp set this is for you! I has several great sentiments that will go great with your sympathy cards.

Bloom and grow forever card made using the NEW April Showers mini Cricut cartridge.

Hello, friends!!

I hope you are all having a good week so far. I am having a quiet week which is so nice! I do not start school for a few more weeks and my son has gone back to school. Oh my goodness, it is so wonderful and quiet at my house most of the day.

Today's card is not one of my favorites that I have made with the Cricut cartridges from the new release April Showers Mini. I just love this release too...I think it is one of my favorites. I cut so many things from this cartridge for the layout I made using this cartridge(click here and scroll to see), so when I starting making the second thing I was nearly out of ideas. However, I made a third thing with this cartridge this weekend that I love. I will post that with er this week or next. I guess I was just crafted out by the time I made this one...sigh

The paper is from Close to My Heart as is the ribbon.

I cut this flower out at 3" and 2 1/2".

The stamps are a combo of Papertrey Ink and Close To My Heart.

The shapes that the stamped images are on are from punches in my stash that I layered.

Have a wonderful Wednesday!!
