Create a Card

Since it's Wednesday, it's Create a Card day. Where is this week going? I've been very busy creating the last week or so, so my days are flying by!

Here's a card created using Close To My Heart's "Tailor-Made" stamp set. I was playing with my CTMH Artiste Cricut cartridge the other day and saw that there is a cut on there for a mannequin.  Cool!

It's a pretty basic card using Juniper and New England Ivy inks.  The Creative Basic B&T papers are no longer available.
