Cricut Dancing Flamingo card

Hello, friends!

I hope you are all having a wonderful and safe holiday! I am still on Houston, but the fun never stops on this blog ;-)

Don't forget that I am giving anyone who spends over $50 in my Close To My Heart store a FREE Blossom card kit! It is on a while supplies last kind of basis, so don't wait too long!

 
Today's card is one I made for the Bitten By the Bug blog. This week's theme is dance. Naturally, I thought the Twinkle Toes cartridge would be a good choice. While I was looking in Design Space at what was on this cartridge, I noticed for the first time this adorable flamingo. I mean seriously, ladies, a ballerina flamingo! Can you even stand the cuteness?

The patterned on the cardstock was made using the Jumping Geometrics stamp set and gold embossing powder. I thought it mimicked ocean waves or sand. 


If you have an Explore, here is the file: Cricut Dancing Flamingo card

If you do not have an Explore, cut out the flamingo at 3.75".

Thanks so much card made using Art Philosophy cartridge.

Hello, friends!

Today I have a card that I made using both the Twinkle Toes and CTMH Art Philosophy cartridges. I am sure most of you are surprised that you could pair these two as they both have very different styles. Twinkle Toes has kind of a child-like cutesy look and CTMH Art Philosophy has more of a simple elegance look. However, I was able to put them together and it works!

Once of the great things about the the Twinkle Toes cartridge is the unique shapes like the oval below.  These shapes are great for cards AND for journaling spots on scrapbook pages.

I used the Sonoma paper line from Close To My Heart. The ribbon is from Papertrey Ink.

I cut out the oval shape at 2 1/2" using the Twinkle Toes cartridge. The rose is cut out at 2 1/2" and the leaves are cut out at 1" using Art Philosophy cartridge. To check out my flower tutorial click here => FABULOUS FLOWER TUTORIAL

The stamp is from Close To My Heart and appropriately called Thank You.

Thanks so much for stopping by this week!
