Cricut Art Philosophy Cartridge -You Touch So Many Lives Card

Spring is in the air and it is gorgeous outside!!  I love this time of year.  Everything is beginning to bloom and it all looks so fresh and new. 

I created this card for "Craft Your Passion Challenge 103 - Monochromatic".  The challenge was to use shades of one color or black and white.  I wanted to try out another one of my stamps that came with my CTMH Art Philosophy Cricut Cartridge. 

I liked the look of spring and community in the picture.  I love nature.  I have been wanting to use this cardstock with this cute little design, so here it is.   You can double click on the picture to get a closer view of the card.  The picture isn't blurry.  The design in the paper makes it appear that way.



I love my CTMH Art Philosophy Cricut cartridge.  This cartridge has approximately 700 images which includes cards, tags, borders, font, 3D items, dimensional flowers and more.  Many of the images coordinate with a selection of Close To My Heart My Acrylix® stamps; which will make stamping your projects faster, simpler and easier.

It has 6 different dimensional flowers.  It is a cartridge you will use over and over again.  A "must have "for your Cricut Collection.  The Art Philosophy Cricut Cartridge is part of a Close To My Heart Collection (CTMH)  that can only be purchased through a CTMH consultant.  You can get it FREE for the next four days (March) by joining My Team (here) as a Close To My Heart Independent Consultant.  See more information below.

I purchased the Art Philosophy collection over a month ago and fell in love with it and the wonderful stamp sets which coordinate so nicely with this cartridge. I want to make sure everyone knows about this collection because I know everyone who buys it will love it.

You cut the shape at the designated size on the stamp label with your Cricut and it will fit perfectly with the CTMH stamp designed to go with it.  I cut a larger one in the black and white dotted paper to match the outer edge paper. 



I wanted you to see the picture a little closer; but you can barely make out the outline of the horse pulling the carriage in front of the people.  The paper is made that way with just a hint of some of the items surrounding the people.





You can purchase the CTMH Art Philosophy Cricut Collection for $99.00 (here).  It includes the Art Philosophy Cricut Cartridge, 3 CTMH exclusive stamp sets and 3 dimensional  elements chipboard sheets that coordinate with the shapes on the cartridge -  OR EVEN BETTER - You can get this collection free through March if you Join My Team.

  6. I love the balck and white and it reminds me of a french countryside circa 1765:) It is the -OK I can not spell this correctly-Troile effect. I saw this on MIM and had to take a closer look-beautiful
