For this week's assignment we could use any Christmas Set.  I chose to use the O Christmas Tree Background Set and the Christmas Card Fun Set.  From the Christmas Card Fun set I used the Christmas Tree Card.

First I printed the O Christmas Tree Background on a laser printer and then applied red foil over the top.

I

I loved the "waste" foil, so I used it instead of the printed and taped it behind the open Christmas trees.  I attached a white plain piece over the "waste" foil.

I then printed O Christmas tree from the sentiment set that comes with the cards and applied red foil to it as well.

I finished it off with a red ribbon and a bow.

Snowflake sequins from Hobby Lobby.

Gratitude - Nov 21st Inspiration

Welcome to Thanksgiving at the Café!!
This week our assignment was to use the With Gratitude Set.

I used Regina's tip of the day from January, 2014 to convert the gratitude background from a PDF to a JPEG.  You can find that tip here.

I then uploaded the Gratitude background into Design Space and made it a pattern on the top layer, so I could print then cut the shape.

I then layered it on a black mat and then onto the green card.

Next I printed the Thanks, Thanks, Thanks and used a circle punch to cut it out.

Then I converted the scallops to a JPEG and uploaded into Cricut Design Space.  I then did a print and cut on the red scallop to finish off my card.

Thanks for stopping by.
