Cricut class
This month's Cricut class had them cut out 3 hearts, 3 bows and we made a quick card.
The happy was cut out with Art Philosophy cartridge. We took nail polish with glitter and painted the letters. The background was made with our new alcohol markers. Birthday was stamped in black.

| This card was made with envelopes, check out the inside of business envelopes and you will see all different patterns and colors. |
These cuts were done on the Cricut, to match the pattern and the shape from the cartridge.

Jan 2015 blog hop
Happy New Year Everyone, Welcome to our monthly blog hop, our hope is to inspire you to make your own creations.
I am learning how to use the NEW Explore Cricut machine. I want to share how you can take a card from your CTMH Cricut cartridge and completely change it to suit your needs.

| This card was made the way "Artfully Sent" meant it to be |
![]() |
| The swing card on page 25 in the "Artfully Sent" cuts out a separate Happy Birthday that you glue onto the swing part of the card. |
![]() |
| This card was cut out right on the card and I removed the fancy base. New items on this card are Heartstrings paper, white shimmer trim and puffy stickers. |

| This card was made using the Explore. |

| This is the page you can find the swing card. If I can figure out how to share the file, I would be happy to do that. |
Now hop on over to Krista's blog and see what wonderful things she has created.
