Happy Monday! I thought I'd share a little birthday card I made for my brother over the weekend with the help of my Cricut Explore and some My Creative Time goodies. I started with an A2 kraft card base and then cut the largest of the MCT Stitched Rectangular Frame Dies out of white cardstock. I used Tim Holtz Distress Ink in Peacock Feathers to ink up the background and to add the dots with the Simon Says Stamp Tiny Dots Stencil. The little stars I popped up on the background were made with MCT's All Around Holidays dies.
Here's where my Cricut Explore came in. I spelled out "HAPPY" using a font from the Boys Will Be Boys cartridge and welded it to a rectangle. After cutting it out, I added a lime green element that I made by using the Stitched Rectangular Die again, but this time trimming it with one of the MCT Fun Stitched Edges dies. I also stamped the birthday sentiment from MCT's Gift Card Sentiments. That larger star is from MCT's 3 Star Stitched Dies. Once of all this was adhered together, I adhered it to the card with some dimensional adhesive!
