This cartridge has a lot of background cut that work well to put on a card.
I cut this a 4" and gives room for a sentiment at the top or on the bottom. I would love to see that card done with fall leaves.

October stamp of the month cards
October Stamp of the month cards. Hurry you can only get this stamp set in Oct. Let me know if you would like this set.  |
| Here is my favorite new card technique. It called a pop out card. You start with a 8"x5 1/2" piece of cardstock and score it at 2", 3" 5" 6" Fold it so the center pops out. On the back side you glue a shape only on the left of the fold, that helps it stand up. Add B&T strips to the front 3 panels and a sentiment in the middle. Watch for the Thanksgiving card in the next post. |

My oldest Grand daughter will be turning 16 this month. So proud to watch her turn into a beautiful young lady.
I used my Cricut to cut the roses, car and the Sweet 16. The paper is not CTMH, I wanted something with sparkles, but everything else is.
 |
| What a better way to celebrate a 16th birthday is to have a pop-up car on the inside. The best part was what was behind the car. What else MONEY!!!! |

June Blog hop
Welcome to the Joyful Stars Blog Hop!
We are happy you could join us each month to see our monthly hop. So hop from one blog to the next until you get back to here. You will find the next person to hop to at the bottom of each post, her name will be highlighted.
This month I would like to share with you a cascading card I made for our friends 50th Wedding Anniversary.
I used White daisy cardstock and gold for the "50". I cut two pcs of 5 1/2 x 12 on an angle. Directions are below.
Directions: Cut 2--- 12" pcs of cardstock at 5 1/2" on one end and 2 1/2" on the other end. One side will be the straight edge. Score at 2", 4" 8" 10" on the 6" just make a pencil mark. At the 5 1/2" end Find the center 2 3/4" and at the other end the center will be 1 1/4" , draw a pencil line down of the long strip, center.. On one strip cut score line at 2" 10" to the center pencil line. On the other strip, cut opposite (from the other side) at 2" 10" At the 6" mark cut to center pencil mark on the opposite side. So one pc you would cut from the top at 2" 10" to center line and on the other strip you would cut from the bottom at 2" and 10". Then slide the 2 pcs together with the tallest at the back.
You can make this for any occasion and use any Cricut cuts. These are the cuts I used:
50----------------Artiste 2"
butterflies-----------Artfully Sent Icon Pg 14 Shift R 2"
circle behind the 50--------------Artbooking Pg 61 Photo Mat 2 8"
hearts---------Artbooking Pg 48 Border shift Real Dial size 2 1/2"
Banner for anniversary----------AP Pg 26 shape 1 1"
Now hop on over to Crystals blog to see what she has been creating.
