Cricut Circle Weekly Challenge French Manor Cartridge



This card was made for the weekly Cricut Circle Challenge using the French Manor cartridge and embellishing with gemstones, pearls or jewels. On the outside of this card I used SEI Paper called Mimosa Mint Juep for the background. I cut the window and then cut out behind it and put velum so you could see through the card to the inside. I cut the bird using Robin and the layer for the branch. For the Robin I used SEI Mimosa Daiquiri. The strip across the top is SEI Mimosa Margarita. I used Heidi Swapp Pink Jewels to accent.


On the inside I used SEI Mimosa Guava for the background. I cut the Frame using French Manor and the paper is SEI Mimosa Margarita. I cut the model using the Forever Young Cartridge. She is model 17. I cut her dress out using SEI Mimosa Chartreuse. I used the Hanna Montana Cartridge to do the font on the front and the back. Although it is hard to see some of the paper has glitter and some is shimmery; that is how it came, I did not add anything to it.

The card is made so you can "peek" through it like the bird! Enjoy! Thanks for looking!
