Cricut Cards . . .

I made these cards for friends and family. They were made on my Cricut with SCAL (Sure Cuts A Lot) from Susan's cut files.


For one of my best friends, Michael, who likes toads :)
It was my first pop-up card, the only thing I would do differently next time is use heavier card stock for the foundation:




This one was originally made for a contest/challenge for National Ice Cream Day (It had to include ice cream in the composition) but it ended up going to a good friend. The background of the flipped front is holographic, and I used lots of iridescent chalking for sparkle all over! Wish it photographed better:

This 'Thank You' was made for a wonderful lady named Pat. I blocked the private parts of the card, I know you understand. :) It's hard to see in the pictures but there was a lot of paper piecing on the front.

Another hard one to photograph is this Acetate (clear plastic) based card I made as a thank you to the great people at the V.A. for helping me out so much! I know the V.A. gets a bad rap at times, but the people at the V.A. in Oregon are all exceptional people! I have nothing but good things to say about my doctors, administrators, and case workers!

Another big thank you shout out to them!
