New Home/Address Card

Cricut Machine
Wild Card Cartridge
Recollection Cardstock
Recollection Pattern Paper Girl Stack
White Gel Pen
Walnut Stain Distress Ink
Yellow Brad

When cutting this card out do not have real dial size on or the layers won't fit. The card is cut at 7.5 inches. I went around the edges with the white gel pen and the door so it would stand out. I added curtains to the front door by hand cutting a curtain shape. I added a mail box flap and I used a yellow brad for the door knob.

Hannah Montana Cartridge
Pattern Paper: Recollections Girl Paper Pack
Cardstock: Recollections
Stickles: Diamond
White Gel Pen

Made this card for a challenge over at She's A Sassy Lady.  This ribbon can be made in any color. There are many different colors for different awarenesses. Blue is for Colon Cancer Awareness. The card is a A2 Long card created in my gypsy and the ribbon was sized to fit inside. I cut the card out in blue cardstock and also the pattern paper. I also cut out just the ribbon in the blue cardstock. I attached the pattern paper to the front and then the blue cardstock ribbon. I went around the edge with a white gel pen. I used the Hannah Montana cartridge to make the word hope I used the gypsy to weld the letters together and then attached that to the ribbon. The inside I put a piece of white cardstock just at the top so it would not show through.
