Cricut Artfully Sent and a Cricut Artiste Card

I was so excited to find out that the Cricut Artfully Sent cartridge is now available through CTMH consultants. It's especially for card makers and I'm ordering mine today.  If you're interested, I'm attaching the description below. I can't wait to see what card shapes are included. I guess I'll have to get ready and use that excitement by making cards with my other cartridges which may get lonely once the Artfully Sent cartridge arrives!

I had just made this card using the Artiste cartridge when I read the announcement. I loved the unique shape on the front of this card with the cut-out heart. The card was cut using the <6> card key and the butterfly with the <k> shift accent 4. I used the Scaredy Cat paper pack, which obviously isn't just for Halloween. I used one of the "30 Years of Happy" stamps that are a special this month. It was quick to use my 2" scalloped circle punch on this one. I embossed the card front with the CTMH 5" x 7" Damask embossing folder.
Thank you for visiting!

Mojo Monday 361 and Stamp of the Month Card 1

I'm enjoying using the Close To My Heart September Stamp of the Month, especially with the new trend of using Picture My Life Cards with the new Paper Fundamentals collection.  

I trimmed the black and lace border a little so it would fit the sketch and the size of the hear. I stamped the word "Love" on the PML card, along with a few Glacier colored flowers from this National Stamping Month's #30 Years of Happy stamp set. (If you purchase $30 in stamps from my CTMH site, you get this stamp set of 30 images free. I stamped the heart image from the stamp of the month on a heart I cut out with the CTMH Cricut Artiste cartridge. I also cut one .25" larger using Ruby cardstock. The Black Shimmer trim and Black/Gray Epoxy Bubbles add some bling.

 

Here's a close-up of the bling:
