ICS # 109 . . . Hello Sunshine!

Hi Folks!  Just a quick post to share a card I made tonight for the Inspirational Card Sketches Sketch #109.  I have been a fan of ICS for a long time, and ages ago I participated pretty often, but I just don't have the time now, but I was determined to make a card tonight, and when I found their sketch, I just knew this was 'the one'. Here is their great sketch . . .

And here is my take on the sketch . . .

And all of the details . . .

Products:

• Black cardstock is Bazzill Basics
• All other cardstock is The Paper Studio (Hobby Lobby)
• Patterned paper is Cosmo Cricket - Garden Variety
• Stickles 'Goldenrod'
• SRM Stickers #53002 'Hello'
• EK Success 3D-Dots

Tips Tools and Techniques:

Cricut Expression:

• Card base cut using Walk In My Garden cartridge, card2 set at 5"
• Patterned paper cut using WIMG cartridge, card1 set at 5"
• Yellow square cut using WIMG cartridge, card1 set at 3 1/4"
• Sunshine cut using Create A Critter cartridge, using Sun, and Layers 1 and 2, all set at 3"

Others:

• Assembled sun, added Stickles
• Placed stickers on orange cardstock and trimmed to size
• Placed yellow square on foam dots and placed in center
• Put sentiments in place
• Added foam dots to sun and put in place

This was a very easy card - once I got the sun cut out!  This was my first time using that cartridge and it took me a minute or two to figure out the layers, but after that it was easy.

Thanks so much for visiting, and I hope to see you again very soon!  Blessings, Becky
