Hi, Sweetie!

This little card was literally made in about 15 minutes...ok...maybe I'm exaggerating a bit...but seriously it was pretty fast! I have a template for a vertical A2 sized card in my Gypsy and just pulled in the sundae image and sized it accordingly...and then cut the other layers at the same size.  I put all the images on one layer on my Gypsy and then just used the screen to lay my papers out so all cuts were made at the same time.  I love that about the Gypsy!   I used Paper Trey Ink paper and cardstock, a little white pen stitching, an embossing punch which says "hi"...and there is no manufacturer on the punch so I couldn't tell you who made it or even where I got it.  I used a Corner Chomper (clouds) and some Glossy Accents on the cherry.  The little "sweetie" sentiment is from the Notes for a Friend stamp set by Stampendous.  The Cricut cartridge I used was Just Because Cards (once again).  And this little happy card will be entered in the CAS-Friday challenge CFC11 and the Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Me Monday #69 as both were to make a project with ice cream or a sweet treat.  I actually put a little bow below the cherry but apparently I took this photo before I secured the bow.  You'll just have to use your imagination!


Clean and simple it is...and who doesn't like an ice cream sundae with a cherry on top!

Happy Crafting!
