Happily Ever After Cricut Card

I decided to finally use one of my princess carts to make an Anniversary card for a friend. She had mentioned a trip to Disney World so I decided to use the die cut of Cinderella dancing with her Prince. I cut the image dies at 4" and the sentiment at 2 1/2". I used the flesh color of the prince first liked it but decided it was too dark and so I cut it again on a lighter color I had for Cinderella...I think this really worked to make them look better. I am not going to tell all the colors I used, because it would take to long. This is a Half Fold sized card, because I had an enclosure I needed to mail my friend, this could have easily been made to fit a tall A2 card using a smaller sentiment and over lapping a bit.

I forgot to take a picture inside the card but I did cut the castle out also at 4 " inside the card. The sentiment was shadowed in balck and the sentiment cut in Light blue and then the layer of the diamond in the dark blue and then the top layer in White. I colored over the cut out using my clear Sakura Stardust gel pen and then drew fauceting ont he diamond also to give it some shimmer. I used a marigold color for back ground to make the blue colors pop and then pierced a triangle in all the corners using the SU guide. The main image is mounted on dimensionals.

I told my friend this is a fall apart card...I used very little adhesive on the Sentiment and the castle so they can be removed for scrapbooking a page.
I must complain a bit about my "Happily Ever After" Handbook. Putting it together always takes some trial and error, but looking at the little 3/4 " image to figure out which colors go where was really difficult. I had to use a magnifying glass to get the arm, and hair pieces done, because they were very difficult to see in the sample picture because it was so small and becasue My eyes are aging. It was however fun to use my Cricut and "Happily Ever After" despite my failing eyes...

Until Later ...Happy stamping!
