The Gypsy File is available for this card by email. Just copy and paste this email to your personal email account winacard@gmail.com and let me know which Gypsy file that you are wanting.

I have several cards that I need to make… I had a really special birthday and I have some people to thank!… this is the first of my thank you cards…. I won’t mention who its for so maybe they will be a bit surprised when it arrives!… I got to try out my new Sugar and Spice cartridge on this card… and the tags feature on the Once Upon a Princess is priceless… that cartridge is now my go to when I need a place to put text!!… if you haven’t noticed it has a tag feature…then you hit sift and these two pieced work together to make a beautiful tag… I duplicated the circle that was the center of this cut and tapped the circle on my Gypsy, the one that makes images larger, a couple of times so I could add a little more color. I sure hope that you like this… I hope that my sweet friend… oops I almost said it… likes it too….

I have discovered when you have made over 500 cards that you are going to have to not worry any more if you start repeating some ideas...its just going to happen!! Thank you so much for looking. ~ Hugs, Jeannie

Sugar and Spice
Owl and its layers cut @ h 2.48.. Set the height and the width will be right on all the cuts… I didn’t use the shift cut… but I cut two of the owl so I could pop the owl twice from the background… on the Cricut I would cut this at 2 1 /2 inches.
Once Upon a Princess
Tag and its layer cut @ h 1.89... Set the height and the width will be right on both cuts… I duplicated the oval and cut the duplicated oval @ w 2.13 x h 2 12...on the Cricut I would cut the tag at its oval @ 1 ¾ inches and leave out the extra oval.
ZooBaloo
Branch and its layer cut @ h 1.81 set the height and the widths will be right…on the Cricut I would cut these @ 1 ¾ inches.
Give a Hoot
Extra leaves cut @ w 1.09 x h 0.69... On the Cricut I would cut these at 1 inch.
George
Circles cut @ 0.20... I cut these for the inside of the eyes on the owl… I would use a hole punch for these if I were cutting this using the Cricut.
Triangle for nose cut @ w 0.32 x h 0.25 inches… using the Cricut I would just hand cut this piece.

Card base is 4 ¼ x 5 ½, Frame Piece 4 x 5 ¼ , Background piece 3 ½ x 4 ¾… these cuts are on the inside and outsides of my cards… Sentiment piece 2 ¾ x 4 inside only….. I cut all of these with my paper trimmer.





I love sharing the instructions and files for my cards but I do ask that if you use my instructions or files to recreate my card and place it on your blog or somebody else’s blog that you give me the credit for the original design. I also ask that you do not submit my designs for publication, profit or for any contest. Thank you!

I have been thinking all day on a Mother’s Day card for my mom… I keep being nudged to go look at my papers…. Did I listen… not at first… I kept going through my Gypsy looking at my cuts…nothing was coming to me…. God kept nudging me to go look at my papers… when I did just that there it was the card I needed in my first stack of papers…when I saw the papers I knew exactly what I wanted to do!!… next time I will listen… I hope!… thank you so much for looking… I love your comments.. Be sure and check out the video… it’s a two part video…because my battery ran out of power in the middle. I am learning!!!.. Hugs, Jeanne

I am happy to share my Gypsy file by email...just copy and paste this email address into your own email account... winacard@gmail.com

I realized that I needed a couple of b'day cards that I need to make and send...they may be late...this is one of them... I saw this cut from Gypsy Wanderings with the music notes in it and the card grew from there...I just loved this cut!!... this was not one of those cards where I felt I knew just what it was going to look like when I finished....I was so excited when I finished and was so tickled with the outcome.... thank you so much for looking... I thrive on your comments!!... have a wonderful day... Hugs, Jeannie
CRICUT & GYPSY
*No Cricut cuts included on the card because of all the welding.*
Gypsy Wanderings
Bookplate cut with notes in it cut @ w 3.48 x h 4.45
Bookplate shadow blackout cuts for the shaped card (in red welded to the rectangles) cut @ w 3.95 x h 4.45... I placed one on the mat and welded a square from George @ w 3.42 x h 1.0..you have to unlink the width and height to get this size...
weld and group these two shapes
Bookplate background cut...that goes behind the Bookplate note cut cut @ w 3.95 x h 4.45.
Frame Bookplate for inside of card cut @ w 3.37 x h 3.80.
Top Bookplate cut for inside of card cut @ w 2.97 x h 3.35.
Zooballoos
Branch and its layer cut @ w 3.79 x h 1.37.
I cut two extra layers in green so I would have the extra leaves... I welded one of  regular branch cuts  onto the Bookplate Note cut to have a good place to pop dot the branch from.
Home Decor
Bird and its shadow cut @ h 1.63 ...set the height and the width will be right...I placed an extra shadow from the bird on the Bookplate Note cut and welded it there so have a good place to pop dot the assembled bird and its shadow to...the other bird is on the inside of the card.
Songbird
All letters cut @ h 0.77 set the height and the width will be right...overlap the letters for each word and weld together.
There are two mat shots because I had to lay this out on two mats ...I did this best by  putting all the cuts on one mat...then I named the file and saved it... then I deleted the items I wanted on the second page...and saved it with a -1 added to the end of the file name... then I opend the file with all the cuts... removed the cuts alread on page one...and saved this file with a -2 at the end of the file name.

I would love to give who ever had a puppy with a little body and a big face credit for this card... I woke up at 1:30 in the morning and saw their card... had to see if I could make the same kind of puppy with my Gypsy.... and then had to finish building the whole card...yes all in the middle of the night!... so if you posted that card please let me know and I will make sure to give you credit! ...
