Artfully Sent Sleeve Cards–April Class

Hello!  I am enjoying a rainy day in VA.  It’s a bit cold, but the rain is nice and soothing.

Today I want to share some more cards that I created with our Cricut Artfully Sent cartridge for my April Cricut Class, Saturday, April 25 from 9-11am.

Artfully Sent Class 04 Scene Cards (1)

These cards were really easy and came together very quickly.  Partly, because I copied some designs, but also because there isn’t a lot to them.

This was one of the cards that I copied from the Close To My Heart video all about the sleeve cards.  (I’ll include the video at the bottom of this post.)

They created it to hold a party invitation.  The person who receives this card could turn around and use the sleeve to hold a birthday card to send to someone else.

You probably guessed it, this card uses the letters that came out of the first card.  I just embossed them with our Dot Embossing Folder.  The little diamond shapes on the side were leftovers from some Cricut project a long while back. (yes, I kept those)

These sleeve cards are perfect as gift card holders.  Simply cut any sleeve card at 3 1/2” real dial size and it will hold any standard sized gift card.

Another option for the sleeve cards is to hold a photo.  When cut at the size recommended in the booklet they will hold a 4 x 6 photo.  I also included a cream piece of cardstock with my photo and stamped a sentiment on it.

This would be great for Christmas Cards and you still have enough room to include your Christmas newsletter.

June Card Club–Sympathy and Get Well

Happy Memorial Day Weekend!  I hope you are taking some time this weekend to thank those that have fought for our freedom and remember those that lost their lives defending this country.  This weekend is so much more than bright sunny days, grilling food, and spending time with family.  I hope you enjoy every aspect of it. Perhaps these cards can also brighten your day. These are the cards that we will create at my June Card Club on Thursday, June 30 from 6:30-9:30pm . Per requests from my regular attendees, I chose to focus on sympathy and get well cards. This card features a retired stamp set, Kiss It Better , but I really wanted to use it. I love how the band-aids act as closures to the ripped card front. This card is much easier than it looks.  The flower is just circles that have been folded.  I added a stem from our Artiste Cricut collection (which is retiring on July 31 by the way). Having a bad day? This card is sure to brighten it and give you some encouraging wo

June Stamp of the Month Blog Hop–Ice Cream Dream

Yeah!  I am finally getting a chance to participate in another blog hop.  We have 50 Close to My Heart Consultants participating in this month’s Stamp of the Month Blog Hop .    If you lose your place along the way the complete list of participants can be found here.   If you have come here from Kathleen Androlewicz’s Blog you are on the right path. The June Stamp of the Month is entitled Ice Cream Dream (S1506) (Set of 7). Here is a picture of this stamp set. I chose to make a card with this stamp because I thought it would be perfect for a birthday! I chose a pattern from our How-To-Book, Wishes: Simple Side View .  I love the cut-out on the front of the card to reveal a little bit of what is inside. I colored the ice cream truck with some of our ShinHan Markers (Peony Purple, Warm Grey 4, Tender Pink, Turquoise Blue, Golden Yellow, and the Blender for some shading). Then I simply added some of our new washi tape from the Carnival Washi Tape pack (Z3067), s
