Hi guys! I am back today sharing a card I created using lots of fabulous products from CutCardStock.com and my Silhouette! Have you tried using the Curious Metallic Cardstock with your digital die cutting machine yet? I absolutely love it!
Tutorial:
2. Fold the cardbase on the score line then adhere one of the Poison Ivory mats to the front of the card.
3. Use foam adhesive to adhere the Galvanised cardstock mat to the center of the card.
4. Your card should look like this image.
5. Adhere the Nude detail cut to the center of the card.
6. Place the metal "thank you" sticker in the center as shown.
7. With the Satin Center Organza Ribbon, slide the ends of the ribbon under the foam adhesives, centering.
8. Tie a bow to the left of the "thank you" sentiment.
9. Place a pink flower in the center of the bow.
Flower: Pink Printed (Prima Flowers)
Metal: Thank You Sticker (Momenta)
Thanks so much for joining me today!
When you see the Cindy Loo cartridge book you soon discover that this cartridge is full of surprises! It has an amazing alphabet and this cute little basket! I have put together a Cricut Design Studio file that you can grab HERE. ---
The cut file contains the basket, liner, and the "BOO".
If you are cutting these files manually, both bags are cut at 5 ¾” and the BOO letters are 1" regular. With the liner (orange bag cut), I trimmed off the side tab and the bottom of the basket. Adhere the liner to the basket, ensuring that the backs of the paper are touching and that the liner scallops are just above the basket scallops when they fold down.
Place adhesive on the basket tabs and fold up the basket. Ink around all the edges with Charcoal Cat's Eye Chalk Ink. Place a small foam piece at the bottom of the basket and poke holes for the candy to insert in to. Create a background for the letters or attach them as they are with Craft Glue Dots®, add in Stickles to embellish the letters and fill the basket with 1/2" slices of accordion folded paper.
Supplies:
Cardstock: Pure (Momenta)
Pattern Paper: Black Tie and Endless Summer (Momenta)
Misc: Ribbon

Note: You can download the cuts for the first two steps through these links:
• Cut a 6 ½” circle from the pattern paper for the base of the hat.
• Cut a circle that has a radius of 5 ½”, cut into thirds (we will only use one of these pieces). Roll loosely to form a cone.
• Place 1” Glue Lines® down one edge of the cone and adhere the other edge over it to secure the cone shape.
• To attach the cone to the bottom circle, fold the ½” Craft Glue Dots® in half and place them over the open rim of the cone, centering each one. Attach to the large circle, pressing firmly.
• Trim a ¼” x 12” and a ¼” x 1” paper for the band. Attach the two pieces together to form a ¼” x 13” piece. Adhere around the base of the cone, placing on top of the folded glue dots from above.
• Place the 16” cut of twine around the bottom of the band, placing over the remaining adhesive. Knot the twine and secure in place placing a Mini Glue Dots® behind the knot.
• Decorate as desired.
