Crafts With Cutters Challenge #121

Happy Wednesday!  Today is challenge day at MyPaperCrafting.com and we have made cards for our teammate Madison's "I Feel the Love" Project.  This month cards are being collected to bring a smile to a 21 year old who lost everything in Hurricane Sandy.  For more info on Alana and/or the IFTL Project please visit Madison's website.

So this little card is made completely from scraps -- that's right . . . every last piece of it is from my scrap stash!  And I even had enough left over to make a second card.

Here is the card for Alana:



And here is the second card:


Here's the recipe:

  • Green gingham border -- Cricut Essentials cartridge, cut at 4 1/4" wide.
  • Orange and Hot Pink squares -- Cricut Lacy Labels cartridge, cut at 2 1/2" wide.
  • White circle -- Cricut George & Basic Shapes cartridge, cut at 1 3/4"
  • The "Sending You Sunshine" was created using Microsoft Publisher.
  • The "Happy Birthday"circle is part of the Birthday Turtle digi stamp set from PaperCraftingWorld.com.
  • The cards are 5 1/2" tall by 4 1/4" wide.
  • Some ribbon and a little bit of bling finish off these cheerful cards!
Thanks so much for stopping by.  I hope you'll head on over to MyPaperCrafting.com and check out what the other Design Team members created.  Make sure you help us welcome our newest Team member, Sheena!
