UMT-White on White Anniversary

Hello and welcome to my last Using My Tools post of 2014.

 UMT posts are where I grab a tool that has never been used or hasn't been used in a long time and finally use it to craft with.

This weeks tool is a Cricut cartridge, Elegant Edges.

I had an anniversary party to go to and they theme the couple chose was white and black so i wanted to make an elegant card using that theme.

I embossed the background paper, popped up the cut pieces, added some pearls, ribbon and the banner sentiment also on pop dots. This card was hand delivered so the thickness of dimension was ok to add.

Now it's your turn to  make something beautiful!

TT- Peace, Love & Joy Christmas

Hello and welcome to my Tinsel Tuesday post. 

You can find the descriptions of all my posts at the "My Posts" tab at the top.

For this card I was experimenting with my Cricut and some acetate. Acetate is fairly new in my card making.

So for this card I stretched myself and cut out shapes in which I had to play a bit with the setting son the Cricut and went through a few sheets of acetate but in the end I'm happy with the results.

I stamped the snowflakes using Staz-on and than added some gems to the centers.
