I know this is so much like a card I made two cards before this one… but I kept having that card and that paper in my head… and a card I made a long time ago… so I just combined those two cards and came up with this one… I am so excited at how it turned out!!!… If I had a blue room I would frame this one in a shadow box frame.. But I don’t… and I don’t know anybody that does… this so reminds me of the living room of the house I grew up in… the room that I got married in almost 30 years ago… it would have been so pretty in that room… oh I could cry right now… I hope that you love this card as much as I do… I hope you all have a wonderful day! Hugs, Jeannie

CRICUT & GYPSY

Layer 1

Create a Critter

Leaves (3) cut @ w 2.42 x h 3.28... I flipped one from left to right…. On the Cricut I would cut this @ 3 ¾ inches.

Cindy Lou

Flourishes (4) cut @ w 2.66 x h 2.06... I flipped one of these too… On the Cricut I would cut these @ 2 inches.

Sugar and Spice

Scalloped Oval (I love this cut) cut @ w 4.59 x h 4.39... On the Cricut I would cut this @ 4 ¼ inches.

George

Oval cut @ w 2 18 x h 3.78... You will have to unlink the width and height to get this … using the Cricut I would use an oval cutter for this cut.

Layer 2

Wild Card

Roses (16) cut @ w 2.92 x h 4.09 … I cut 4 in brown and 12 in blue… I cut roses from the blue ones just above the part that would be green on a real rose… then I cut them apart even further… each rose had one brown part.. A large blue part… a smaller blue part…and the smallest blue part…I used the lines that the Cricut made to cut these apart and layer them up… see close up picture of rose … on the Cricut I would cut these @ 4 inches.

Creative Memories Corner Punch (retired)

Martha Stewart Border Punch

Card base 4 ¼ x 5 ½ inches… Frame piece 4 x 5 ¼ inches…. Background piece 3 ½ x 4 ¾ inches… Sentiment piece 2 ¾ x 4 inches… all these pieced I cut on my paper trimmer.

I have several thank you card I need to make… this one was so inspired by the person it is going to … because of their love of their garden…. And inspired by a card on Bobby’s and Jill‘s blog… they do such beautiful works.. You need to visit their blog Cricut Couple … I promise you will be inspired too!! … I hope this is a hit for the special person in my life this is getting it… I hope that you like it too… thank you so much for looking!

CRICUT & GYPSY

Once Upon a Princess tag cut is the frame for the thanks… and it layer cut @ h 3.35...set the height and the width will be right…. … I put the oval layer over the tag cut to make the whole in the center, then I cut out an extra frame piece in cream… on the Cricut I would cut these @ 3 ¼ inches.… you can use your center point feature to get the whole in the tag cut.

Cindy Lou

Flower cut @ w 1.28 x h 2.56 and w 1.36 x h 2.70... They do not cut out that big…so don’t worry that you have these number wrong… I did use the hide contour feature to hide the flower centers and the holes that cut out in the center…I used chalk to add color to the flowers…and paint for the dots in the centers of the flowers….and ink around the edges…… on the Cricut I would cut these @ 2 ½ inches… they will cut out smaller… you will have a whole in the center of your flowers you might want to choose a flower from Walk in My Garden that does not have the center cut out.

“Thanks” cut @ w 2.68 x h 0.80... On the Cricut I would cut this @ 3/4 and inch.

Flourishes cut @ w 1.68 x h 1.30 … on the Cricut I would cut these @ 1 ¼ inches.
