Hi all you wonderful bloggers and readers! It is another beautiful day in Southern CA. I created a card for Mojo Monday Sketch 246; using CTMH Sonoma paper packet. I love these colors in this packet. I have been wanting to use this for a while; but it was hard for me to cut them as they are so beautiful!! Ha!!
I used the Cricut Art Philosophy Cartridge to cut the circles and the layers to create the flowers. I love this cartridge. There are 700 images which includes 100 card bases and it is so versatile. It was a great investment and I am so happy each time I use it.
Check out my card club - where I will be featuring at least one new card base each month using this cartridge. You can see my first month cards under the Card Club tab at the top of the page. Email me to join at purpleglocreations@socal.rr.com. I look forward to sharing my creations each month with you. I would appreciate it if you would tell your friends and co-workers about my card club so they can join in all the fun and learn to create cards of their own or add to their collections.

Hi Gloria,
ReplyDeleteIsn't Sonoma a great paper in southern California as well as northern California? And how FUNN to turn the card 90 degrees to make it look so different? I like the skinny ribbon, too. Thanks for playing on H2H this week!

DeleteThis is such a lovely card. Those flowers are so pretty. I have a Cricut, but must confess I use it rarely. I probably should check out all the cards you've created with it. I'm sure you'd inspire me to use mine more!! Thanks for joining the DRS Designs' challenge this week. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteThanks Shelia for your lovely compliments. I hope I can inspire everyone to get their Cricuts out and use them. I haven't left mine alone since I got it right after Christmas last year. I love it and can't imagine how I managed without it. It has been such a blessing. Thanks for stopping by my blog and for leaving a comment. Have a super day!!
