Good morning to you! I have two cards to share with you today that are being featured on the
Cricut blog! Have you been to the Cricut blog? It is a fabulous place to find out all the latest and greatest in Provo Craft news! : ) If you haven't been there yet, click

My first card is a Popsicle card. I was inspired by my kids eating them by the pool the other day......dripping all over themselves....my deck...... ; ) It was created with my
Gypsy and the
Sweet Shop Lite Cartridge.

Now I know most Popsicles don't go around toting a flower on them.....but I couldn't resist adding my own floral touch to this card! I used Mother's Day Bouquet to create it, a bit of black twine, a tag, and a rhinestone.

My second card is a gumball shaker card. I created this one with my Gypsy and
Sweet Shop Lite Cartridge as well. I was able to create the circular window right on my Gypsy using the George and Basic Shapes Cartridge. I cut all the gumballs using the George and Basic Shapes Cartridge.

Since I welded the card at the bottom, I used a small piece of velcro at the top to keep the card closed.

I love the fun interactiveness of shaker cards!

The tag was cut using the Sentimental's Cartridge and stamped with a Papertrey Ink stamp. I used 3 colored twines from the Twinery and some stick pins for added whimsy!
