Wild Card Spinner Card
















This is a card we will be making at the next Cricut Class in August. This is called a spinner card. When you spin the wheel, you can see different images appear through the window. I used the Wild Card cartridge. This is one of four projects we will create in class. To get on my mailing list for class information, please send an email to melskreations@gmail.com.

Beginner's Cricut Class!








I am going to teach my first Cricut Class on Tuesday, July 21st! If you are local to NE Ohio and interested in attending, please email me at melskreations@gmail.com for details. The class will be a beginner's class and my goal is to get Cricut newbies familiar with the basic functions of their machine and get them comfortable enough to begin creating on their own! We will do a hands-on project which is the red shaker card in the above photo.

I used the Walk In My Garden cartridge for the lady bug, sunflower and sentiment, and I used the Plantin SchoolBook cartridge for the grass. The colors I used for this project are:

Real Red, Crushed Curry and Garden Green (all Stampin' Up! colors).
The 2nd card was made using my daughter's favorite colors - pink and purple (pink piroutte (retired) and Orchid Opulence).
