My Monday Simple Card..


I noticed Christmas With the Cricut posts a "Simple Card" design on Mondays and since its Monday, it inspired me to create my own "Simple Card"
The framed bird was cut using the Monogram Shadow Feature on Gypsy Font. Peace and the holly leaves were cut using, most likely, Gypsy Font or Gypsy Wanderings, but I am not certain.  One thing I am learning; its imperative to take notes as I am designing on my Gypsy, especially if I plan on posting my work here on my blog.   The cartridges offer so many options that it is impossible, at least at this point in my experience level, to remember where everything comes from.
This card will be one of the designs I will be using for my church to sell in an upcoming fundraiser. The cards will be packaged in clear acrylic boxes and sold in sets or either four or six.

Hi Judith!

I love your SIMPLE CARD! And I know exactly what you mean about remembering what carts my images come from when designing in the Gypsy! I have a solution for you though!! Watch my video on the Wine Bottle Wrappers at http://hallmarkladybugs.blogspot.com/2009/11/guest-designer-tammy-from-christmas.html and I explain how you can use the new multiple page features to add an information page to your designs! Let me know what you think and thanks for following our CWTC blog!
