Hi! Names Sarah and paper crafting is my game. I love crafts of all kinds, but card making, paper crafts and My Cricut's(yes plural,they include the expression, create and imagine) have found a special place in my heart. I Love My Cricut and don't know how I would craft without them. When I am not spending time with my bugs, I dabble with my husband to fill my time.(just kidding) My husband and I have been married for 5 years but have been together for almost 16 years, wow! He is my best friend, my confidant, and cohort, He is the best thing that I have in my life, besides God! We don't have any children yet but want to have kids *bad*, I guess when the time is right! So until then my life is filled with crafts, my husband and my family!

Card Creating Tuesday! Falling for you card

Hi Crafty Friends!

Today is card creating Tuesday and the design team were to make Thanksgiving cards or place cards. I decided that I would make a little Thanksgiving card for my Husband to let him know how much I am thankful for him.

So Lets get started.

For my card I used a craft card base to make an A2 card which measures 4 1/4 by 5 1/2 when folded.

Then I cut my mat layers. The plaid is cut at 4" by 5 1/4
The Orange layer is 3" by 3 3/4
The Green layer is  which I then ran thru the cuttle bug using a folder( from the paper studio sold at hobby lobby) before placing my paper in the folder I inked the folder front(the side with the words) with shabby shutter distress ink. Then I carefully closed the folder and ran it thru the bug.
I love that effect.

I then cut the tree using Create a Critter 2 from page 63 at 3 1/2".

The cuts

assembled
I then used a studio g stamp to emboss the sentiment on green card stock.
I then used the deco scallop punch  to punch a border out in the same orange card stock as the leaves.

Next I adheared all the layer together
 Then added the tree with foam tape.



and that finished up my card. Here it is again.


Thanks for stopping by to see my project. To see more Thanksgiving projects please visit My Cricut Craft Room

  1. Sarah, this is so cute and I am sure your husband will enjoy this. I like the dimension that you gave your background with the extra step of coloring the folder. I love that effect! Great Job on your project.
