Thinking of you.....again ;)


Well here's another take on the basically the same challenges as those mentioned on my previous post below.  All cuts were designed using my Gypsy and cut using my Cricut.  This card is going to be linked to the following challenges:

**Bitten By The Bug 2 - Tree challenge
**Love to Create - Challenge #32 Thinking of you
**Old Back Porch - 52 Card Pickup challenge week 39

I've almost forgotten how much fun designing on the Gypsy is - once I got over the re-learning curve, that is ;).  Those of you who follow me know that I adore my Silhouette Cameo and designing on the Silhouette Studio, but for on the go, the Gypsy is still way cool! 

The card measures 5 x 5.  The bird in the tree branches is from the Cindy Loo cart.  I welded 2 of the scalloped circle shadows to create the base for the card.  I then used the hide contour feature to cut a brown layer then dry embossed that layer with the Plum Blossoms CB folder.  The sentiment "thinking of you" is once again from the Gypsy Wanderings. 

Here are some closeups:




And here's the inside of the card.  I know it's looking a little too plain :(.  I think I'll go stamp a swirly image on it before I give it to someone. 


Thank you once again for stopping by!

Thinking of you



Hi there!  Hope you all are having a great day.  It's another hot one where I live and it's becoming very unbearable late in the year :(.  I did something I haven't done in MONTHS - I played with my Gypsy!  I must admit I had to fumble a lot to get the hang of it again.  Today's card is going to be linked to the following challenges and all cuts were made using my Cricut:

**Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Blog - Challenge Me Monday #131 pink
**Bitten By The Bug 2 - tree
**Love to Create - Challenge #35 thinking of you
**The Old Back Porch - 52 Card Pickup week 39

The card is sized to fit an A2 envelope (seen above where the card is standing on).  The base of the card is actually a frame from the Cindy Loo cart with the tree.  I just welded two of the frames to make the base and used hide contour for the pieces I didn't want cut.  The hearts are from Baby Steps and the butterflies are from the CTMH Art Philosophy cart.  The phrase thinking of you is from Gypsy Wanderings.  I used the CB folder Branches and D'vine Swirls.

Some close ups:

 
 
I am hoping to get another card posted with the same theme - what can I say it was a loooong wait during my kids' after school activity yesterday so I got reacquainted with my Gypsy ;).  Once again, I do appreciate you stopping by!
