The Cricut Circle Blog has issued a challenge to its members to create a project using this picture as an inspiration.
I was inspired to create this card!
The base for the front is a piece of 5 inch x 7 inch patterned paper.
The next layer is a dried baby wipe, torn around the edges, and then inked in the center and around the edges with Colorbox Chalk Ink.
The blue oval frame is a Cuttlebug emboss/cut folder "Carly".
The frame is glued to the front using dimensional tape to give depth.
The birdhouse is an image from Cricut Lite Cartridge "Botanicals".
The birdhouse is adhered with dimensional tape.
The roses are cut from the Close to My Heart Cricut Cartridge "Art Philosopy"
The butterflies are from the Cricut Circle Exclusive Cartridge "Paper Trimmings"
The leaves are from a Cuttlebug Quilling Flower Set "Daisy"
After the rose image from the Cricut Cartridge "Art Philospy" was cut out, I inked the edges with Colorbox Chalk Ink and then slightly curled the edges with a paper piercer.
To add interest to the birdhouse, I glued it to some fibers. Then cut away the extra fibers. I also colored the little house with Copic Markers.
The stamped sentiment is from TPC Studio "Faith Greetings"
More roses and flowers were added.
A little blue bird sits atop the bird house. Notice the fibers are slightly pulled out the opening.
My art inspired card!
