Thank You Card Tutorial

I've been keeping my Cricut humming all weekend! Here's a Thank You card I made very quickly over the weekend. 

I started out on page 10 of the Artfully Sent Cartridge booklet, choosing the Pop-Up card:

                           

A customer had a question about cutting, so I'm adding these 2 pics to show exactly which cuts I made. They are marked as 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th cuts. 

You may have to click on the pic to get a larger view.

I cut all the pieces in my 2 colors of choice, Gypsy and Honey:

Here's a close up of the "Thank you my friend" cut out. I love it!

Then I referred to page 10 of the Assembly Instruction booklet:

I love that I get these negative pieces to use after my images are cut!

You can see all the 3D pieces cut out here:

Following the instructions on page 10, I folded the card:

After folding the interior of the card, I adhered the outside of the card to the inside of the card:

Then I adhered the centers to the flowers:

One day a few months ago, I made some washi tape by running some decorative tissue paper through my Xyron:

I used the tissue paper to decorate the front of the card, as well as a cut out image from page 10 of the Artfully Sent Cricut Cartridge.

I cut the image then trimmed the extra paper off to create a small rectangle.

The results are simple, yet pretty!

You can embellish as much as you want, of course. I prefer simple cards that are uncluttered.

Happy Paper Crafting!
