"MAKE-IT-SNAPPY-MONDAY"

I haven't sent a card to aunt Betty lately and, quite frankly, had a hard time deciding what kind of card I wanted to send.  The problem is that there are (perhaps) too many choices, but I chose to use Cricut's Create a Critter cartridge and Cricut Craft Room (CCR) to design this shaped hedgehog card.  She's a cute one, huh?  I haven't used CCR very much and had to learn a few things as I was working on this card.  I enjoy each of my die-cut machines, but I still love how easy it is to use Cricut images to create layered and shaped cards.  After getting the layers assembled, I added some Stickles to the cut-out "spiny" sections, and a Diamond Dot sticker was placed on the bow.  The sentiment, from Stampin' Up!'s Happy Watercolor stamp set, is a new favorite of mine.  I don't know that aunt Betty has a special fondness for hedgehogs, but I hope this card will make her smile and feel loved.

Too cute. I love the Cricut Craft Room and there's lots of good ideas there too. I am sure she will love it.
