Hello there. I wanted to share with you a card I made today. This little guy has skills. He is confident, colorful, and goofy...all the attributes an animated beaver should possess, I suppose. Here are some details to the card:
- Cricut Cartridges Used: Birthday Bash, Wild Card
- Paper: Walmart brand cardstock
- Patterned Argyle Diamonds: Cuttlebug mini polka dots
- Juggling Balls & buttons: Tree House Studio pom-poms
- Outside Orange "stitching": free-hand using Creative Memories bold tip markers
I love making brightly colored cards, but I can tell you that gluing this one down was not a cinch. I used Scotch fast-drying glue, some Elmer's spray adhesive, and Elmer's glue dot runner. In the end, I had to hot glue the balls, as they kept falling off. So the weight on this card is half glue!
I hope you like my card. Thanks for looking :)
Great job!! I love the pom-poms and the mix of the 2 cartridges! And your stitching is amazing!! Doesn't look free hand at all! Nice Work! Thanks for joining us at FCCB!!
