Today's cards are made using the Art Nouveau Cricut Cartridge. I have been wanting this cartridge for a long time. It has some really sophisticated images on it.
The card base has several graduating layers. I cut the swan from page 64 at 3". The cattails are on page 32 and are cut at 4". I added foam tape to the back of the swan as well as the cattails. For just that little extra spark I added flat back pearl beads to areas on the swan. These two images are very easy to assemble, and didn't take very long to put together. If you own this cartridge, why not make this quick, and easy card for a special friend.
Thank you all so much for visiting me today. I appreciate all who visit. It keeps me motivated to keep giving you ideas for your projects.

Thank you Sandra for you nice comment.
DeleteI have been making my cards a little larger these days. This card is 5-1/2"x7-1/2". You can find envelopes to fit this size at Staples. I have enjoyed making the larger card as I am able to cut the biger images and and more detail to my card. It sure gives you a lot more room to be creative.
