My "Cricut Angel"

Made this card for a very special MB friend, Anne, who I call my "Cricut Angel" because she gave me a Cricut cartridge, completely gratis.  How sweet was that, eh?  So, I made her this card and a desk plaque.  J

Inside:-

Desk Plaque 

Tools/Items:-

Cricut Expression 2

Cricut Cartridges: see below

Cardstock – white; green; black

Patterned Paper

Martha Stewart Punch Set – Modern Garland

Stickles – Diamond; and Gold

Glue – ATG; Zig Two-Way

Rhinestones

Pop Dots

Cricut Cartridges:

Cricut Decals (Expression 2 exclusive) – Cricut and layers

Just a Note (Expression 2 exclusive) – Thank You

Make a card base by folding an 8 ½” x 11” piece of cardstock, in half.

Using patterned paper (5” x 8”), punch corners and borders with the Martha Stewart Modern Garland punch set.

Cut the Cricut Angel, and layers, from p. 28 of the Cricut Decals built-in cartridge. (, Cricut Heads).  Stickle the wings and halo with Diamond Stickles.

Attach the Cricut Angel with pop dots.

Add computer-generated sentiments.

Inside of the card:

Cut a background from the patterned paper and punch out the corners using the Martha Stewart punch.

Cut a “Thank You” and layers from p. 37 of the Just a Note built-in cartridge. (Pinwheel, Phrase Layer)

Stickle the “a”, “o” and “u” layers with Gold Stickles.  Attach a rhinestone in the “o”.

I also created a desk plaque:-  Honorary Angel.

Honorary was computer-generated, using the CK Celebration font.

The angel wings image was clipart found on the Net.

Stickled the halo with Gold Stickles.  Attached a little star to it.

Heard back from Anne and she loved them both, which made me very happy.  J
