Today is my monthly post over at Everyday Cricut so when your through here head on over and see the Father's Day gift ideas--Since Dad's big day is less than a month away, I will be showing Father's Day cards from today through next week.
Today's card is intended to go with the picture frame I made and posted on Everyday Cricut.
This card is from the new Cricut Holiday Cakes Cartridge. I used the base shadow, copied it on my gypsy and welded it to make a top fold shaped card. I cut the outside with all the layers. It was pretty easy to put together as the shapes layer well.
I added a couple of buttons with unique holes for the headlights. On the tires, I used the distressed stripes stamps from Papertrey Ink for the tires and the mini sentiment sets for the Father on the plate!
I used a stamp from Michaels for the inside and left plenty of room to write a note or have everyone sign!
So I have a challenge for you all--to use more than one printed paper on your next card. I love mixing patterns, prints, and levels of color. I use a lot of solid card stock as well but pattern play can be a lot of fun!
Make sure to head over to Everyday Cricut and check out the Father's Day gift ideas! Have a great weekend!
OMG I just love the detail in this card!, the buttons! the tires! wow

Very cute! I don't have the software or a gypsy, and probably won't ever, but I would love to have the ability to weld!!! Thanks for sharing.

ReplyDeleteBryan,
ReplyDeleteWhat a great card!!! :) You're right about mixing patterns of paper-I am always amazed at how you put yours together. They look fantastic & I find myself thinking that I wouldn't have thought to put those same ones together.
You're making it hard to live without the Gypsy (and Christmas is a long time away)!
Enjoy the rest of the weekend,
Jennifer
