Magic Card - Thanksgiving Card Using Cricut Artiste Cartridge and Pemberley Paper

Hi to all you wonderful, creative people!!  It is Thanksgiving time again.  A time to reflect, a time to be thankful and a time to celebrate with family and friends.  I am so grateful for all of you and the opportunity to share my creations with you.  I feel very blessed to have such a wonderful support group that appreciates my creations and provides me feedback on how I am doing. 

 

This week at Tammy's Scrapin Corner; we are celebrating Thanksgiving or Fall - Challenge # 37 with three wonderful sponsors: Stitchy Bear, Scrappers Delight and Dragon Doodles.  Be sure to check out the wonderful digi stamps from our sponsors.I chose this CU Victorian Digi 2 Colored with Scrappers Delight.  I love the elegant colors and the gorgeous dress she is wearing. 

 

I decided to create a "Magic Card" which I saw on Joyce's blog.  The original "Magic Card" with tutorial is found on Marianne Skjelstad's blog.  I fell in love with this "Magic Card" as soon as I saw it.  Check out the tutorial and try it out for yourself if you haven't already tried it.  I think this is my new favorite card design.
