Valentine's Day Card

The new release from RAM stamps is so cute, I couldn't help but use nearly all the images on my card for today! I printed my images on Copic Perfect Coloring Paper, and colored them using alcohol markers. For the background there are 3 main elements - The scalloped border, the cloud background and the inked backdrop. I cut these elements using Cricut Kraft Board which is super thick and lovely to work with. I cut the scalloped border and cloud background using my Cricut Maker. The designs I used are available on Cricut Design Space. For the cloud background I did use the slice option multiple times so I could get more clouds into the design. For the ink blended background, I used the following Distress Oxide Inks- Wild Honey  Spiced Marmalade Carved Pumpkin  Tattered Rose Worn Lipstick  Candied Apple I used blender brushes to blend my inks.

Quick and Easy Thank you cards with Cricut

Image
Today's card features several lovely designs from Design Space which I cut using my Cricut Maker 3. The Cricut Maker 3 is such a versatile machine cause you can use Cricut Smart Materials to cut without a mat and much faster as well! To create today's project I used the Cricut Smart Sticker Cardstock which made it super easy for me to stick the delicate elements without worrying about the glue showing through. I cut the thank you multiple times and stuck one on top of the other to let it pop! I hope you liked today's card! Cheers Anisha 🤗

Mass Producing Cards with Cricut

Image
Recently I had done an internship at an industry as a part of my university coursework and wanted to make something fairly quick and easy to say thank you. What better way than to make cute little thank you cards with my Cricut Maker 3! To start I first cut all my elements of the card including the frame and leaves using my Cricut Maker 3. The designs I used for this project are given below https://design.cricut.com/landing/project-detail/62c9ab1cd721635bf15fcd15 I custom created the templates using the slice tool and some basic shapes on Cricut Design Space but you can use the above link to recreate the project with the ready to use templates. After cutting the leaves I used alcohol markers to color them. I also colored the animal images with alcohol markers. I ink blended some of my card bases for some variation and color pop! Finally I adhered all my images using foam tape. I hope this project inspires you to get creative! Cheers Anisha🤗

Christmas Scene Card with Cricut

Image
Christmas cards are hands down the most fun cards to make! There is just something about making Christmas cards! Love em!! To cut my images I used the Print and Cut feature. To create the white outline around the images I used an offset of 0.055. I also cut the background arch piece with my Cricut Maker 3!  I colored all my images using alcohol markers, added some details using a white gel pen. I used two shades of blue ink and using a blender brush, I ink blended my background. I added white paint splatters using white acrylic paint to add snow to my background. I cut a wavy snowy hill using white cardstock and assembled my card. I used foam tape to add some extra dimension.  That's it for today's card!  Cheers  Anisha🥰
