item 5 for Cricut Challenge #1 "iloveyou" card

Item 5 of our first ever cricut challenge is to make anything using your cricut and cuttlebug on the same cut out.

I made this card using my Mini Monograms cart.I wanted to scallop the squares and repeat SC149 so I decided to combine the challenges.

I cut the squares scalloped and rounded, the flowers and the "ilove you" and its shadow with this cart. The large square was 3", the large flower 2" ,small Squares and flowers 1". I used Old Olive to sponge on the white rounded squares after embossing with D'vine Swirl. I thought it made a stem like feel to the vine. I cut a scrap piece of Old Olive embossed with the "Bubbles" folder and free handed the cut out of this leaf. I used SU Old Olive marker to draw the veins on the leaf. I embossed the pink flowers with "bubbles also because I felt that layer of the card should have the same texture. The "iloveyou" was cut at 1" in old olive and a shadow of a teal color I had on hand. I used three MM Sherbet colored flower brads in yellow to make the centers of the flowers. This also attached the sentiment to the card. The pink flowers and ilove u were attached with dimensionals. I used SU Petals and Paisleys Designer Paper for the base and center stripe on the card. I added a bit more pink by using the same light pink from the flowers to mat the stripe of designer paper in the center. The light pink comes from an assorted package of called "Baby Girl" cardstock from Michaels. I hope you like it.

Only two Cricut Challenges left.

Until Later ...Happy Stamping!
