My version..Masculine Birthday Card using Cricut Sweet Treats
I saw on the Bug 'n Me blog an idea for a masculine birthday card using the Sweet Treats cartridge and a Cricut machine. http://bugnme.blogspot.com/2010/01/cricut-cardz-challenge-8.html Well, since I had all the necessary items AND a reason, I decided to give it a try.
Sweet Treats Cartridge
For the card...5 1/4 inches
1. Cut the base card using dark, burgandy/brown cardstock and the card design on page 48.
2. Using the shift shadow/blackout present design, cut it of fishing lure themed paper.
3. Cut the (shift) design out of the green/white checked paper.
4. The polka-dotted present topper was made but cutting the present design again and only using the top portion.
5. Using my scraps from the green/checked cut, I made a circle center for the bow. (There is a design for the bow center on page 48 also).
For the cupcake tag...1 3/4 inches
1. Cut the shadow/blackout cupcake design (page 29).
2. Cut the (shift) shadow/blackout cupcake design out of burgandy/brown cardstock.
3. Using the (shift) layers design, cut the cupcake top.
4. Using the (shift) layers design again, cut the flame out of yellow.
5. Attach to a circle and mount onto another.
6. Add to card with pop dots for dimension.
"happy birthday" (page 56) was cut at about 2 inches (can't remember specifically) and then I clipped it apart to arrange.
Happy "chirping"!
