Thank You Card Using Cricut Artistry Cartridge

Hello Friends.  I am celebrating my 600 Followers and 3 years with Close To My Heart; and would love for all of you to participate in my Blog Celebration.  Click here for the blog post.  Join my followers on Google Friend Connect, add your link and leave a comment.  No blog, no problem.  Leave me a comment letting me know you don't have a blog.  I will add you to my list.  I am giving away at least 25 wonderful prizes; maybe more; depending on entries.  Anyone who wins outside US will qualify for digi stamps from my wonderful sponsors; as I am not allowed to send CTMH products outside the US.

I created several cards using the Cricut Artistry Cartridge; which was just released August 1st by CTMH.  I love this cartridge.  I wanted to show the versatility of it; so I created very different cards so you could see a wide variety of what you could create with it.  I have been creating cards, not scrapbooking or crafting; but this cartridge is for those and more.  It has 700 images.  You can find out more about it on the tab at the top.  I would love for you to watch my new videos on my YouTube channel.
