Mr. & Mrs. Card from Artiste cartridge

My cousin and a friend were just married and I wanted to make a special card for them.  I scrap lifted this idea from Everyday Cricut (http://www.cricutholiday.com/2012/08/cricut-artiste-wedding-card.html) who have made some great projects with the Artiste cartridge.  




Their wedding colors are navy blue and light blue, so I wanted to make something that reflected those colors.  On the Artiste cartridge I used the heart envelope on page 36 and cut it out at 4.25 inches.  For the card I used the one on page 56 and it was cut out at 4.5 inches.  The stamp on the inside of the card is from Inkadinkado and is number 97892.  There are some really cute wedding stamps on this set.

The wedding was last night and it was so fun! :)  My husband was one of the groomsmen, and he looked very handsome in his suit.  Congrats Dave and Kerri!

Magazine Holder with Artiste Cartridge

I hope everyone had a great weekend!  I had a day all to myself yesterday, so I got some crafting time in! :)  

Here is a quick project using the Artiste Cartridge and what I like to call the magazine holder on page 47.




This was cut out at 6 inches.  The paper I used is from the Recollections Signature O' Christmas Tree paper pad.  It came together very quickly and easily.


Now I have a holder for all my various pop dots! :)

Thanks a bunch with Wild Card 2

Wow, I can't believe it has been almost a month since my last post!  Life has been crazy busy!! :)  

Thank you cards are something I never have on hand, but always need, so I though it would be a good idea to make the Thanks a Bunch card on Wild Card 2.  



The card and envelope were cut at 5 inches.  The booklet says to cut out at 4.5 inches, but I was able to get it to fit at 5.  Putting the card together actually took a little thinking because there are 6 layers of bananas to put together, but it looks really cool when all put together.

I am just getting over a small flu bug, but am finally feeling better today.  I hope everyone is having a good weekend! :)
