Get Well Card

Made this card for a dear friend who is going thru a rough spell and is in the hospital.  I wanted to make her a card to cheer her up.  She loves owls, just like I do, so what better way than an "owl nurse" to get her back on her feet.   And a pink/blue one, to boot!  LOL

This is the cartridge in question:-

Sorry for my blunder.    :-(

Hope you're enjoying this CheckList.  It's saved "my bacon" a lot of times, in that I know which cartridges I own and don't end up buying duplicates.  J

Latest Cricut Cartridge Check List – August 2013

Hiya.

Provocraft released  a whole slew of new cartridges :-

As you’ll notice, the packaging is different and it’s a lot smaller.  Reason being there are no more overlays in these cartridges.  The handbook is just a shadow of its previous self.  Here’s an example of what one looks like:-

You need to purchase a "universal overlay" to be used w/ these new cartridges.  It looks like this:-

I’m finding these new cartridges really difficult to determine which category they should go into.  I’ve put them all in the main Cricut list; however, the Home Décor Vinyl  one is in the Projects list.

For newbies to my Cartridge Checklist, here's what it looks like:-

Enjoy!

Special Angel

Made this card for a special friend who is going thru a rough time right now.  I wanted to give her a "Special Angel" to watch over her.   J

Back:

This project was basically “heaven sent” because I found this really cute design in the Silhouette Online store, to use w/ my new birthday present, the Silhouette Cameo.  However, there was something wrong with the design, in that the back and front didn’t match up.  I contacted the Silhouette company and they said that they agreed there was a problem, and that they would be contacting the designer about it.  

In the meantime, I puttzed around myself with the Silhouette Designer Software and, using the Paint program, I created a back for the angel.  It was no easy task and it’s definitely not perfect, as you can see from the pic, but at least the angel has a back now, that matches the front.   J

Patricia loved it and that’s all that matters to me.   J

The design for the angel is #12367.  The design for the “special angel” saying is #46014.

Used multi-coloured yarn for hanging the saying from the angel. 

The tag was computer-generated.
