Choose Happy – Artfully Sent swing card

March is slipping away & I wanted to share this ADORABLE card that uses the EXCLUSIVE March Stamp of the Month (SOTM) stamp set!

This card was created by my “mom” at CTMH- Joyce Houck.

At our recent Consultant Retreat weekend, Joyce brought all the pieces so that we could create this beautiful card!!  
Take a look!!!

This is a swing card, created from our NEWEST Cricut collection – Artfully Sent.

How simple – to cut this card with your Cricut machine….but yet what a BEAUTIFUL card, and it uses the March stamp set so well!!

Here’s a close up…

I love the added sparkles, shimmer trim & the use of the striped zip strip from the Brushed paper pack down the left side….BEAUTIFUL!!

This picture isn't the best....but I wanted to show you the "masculine" style card Joyce ALSO created with this stamp set. 

 I love how she created a girl & a boy card!!

There is STILL TIME to get this stamp set before it’s gone!!

Make sure to place your order BEFORE midnight on March 31st…you can order this stamp set 2 different ways! 

Yes, it’s ONLY $5!

The woodgrain frame is what caught my eye in this stamp set.  I thought ....why not use that "you're special" wording to create a baby card! J

Baby Card using 2 CTMH Cricut Cartridges! 

I chose to use a card base from our Artfully Sent Cricut collection.  I liked the wording at the bottom of the card, but knew I didn't need the scroll.  

So - I tried my hand at Design Space and took away the scrolls for this card design. Now...the scrolls were gone & I created my card design using our Wishes card how-to-book pattern called "Gallery".   

I used our Chalk It Up paper Collection for the background, and cut the ADORABLE giraffe from our Artbooking Cricut cartridge. He is cut from flaxen & sorbet cardstock colors.  

Did you notice the lagoon colored strip of paper?  I used our BEAUTIFUL paper fundamentals...this picture shows the glossy design that is pre-printed on this cardstock. 

 

Here is the list of products I used on this card in case you'd like to create one of your own!  J
