May Cricut Classes

Welcome to the May Cricut Classes at Craft Fancy. This month we are using my scraps from past classes to make some beautiful cards. Inspiration for these cards came from several different places.

I was inspired by this card. I liked that it was a one layer card, but was still a die cut. I added some small pearls, because a little bling is a good thing! This card uses the Walk in My Garden cartridge.

Next up is a card I found on Pintrest (it is pinned on my Card Creations board).  The original uses washi tape, but this one is strips of paper. If you haven't found Pintrest yet, check it out. Lots of fun things can be found there. Anyway, this card uses the Plantin Schoolbook and Paisley cartridges. 

This card came from an ad I found in the latest Reader's Digest magazine. The hearts are cut from the Accent Essentials cartridge. Card inspiration can come from anywhere!

The next card is a pretty flower and some cardstock banners. I'm not sure where the inspiration came for this one, I know I saw something similar somewhere. Anyway the cartridges for this one are Plantin Schoolbook and Accent Essentials.

There will be one more card. I did all these last Friday and ran out of time and ideas for the last one!

Hope to see you in one of the classes!

Flowers

A flowery post for today. 

Here is the newest Vintage Groove necklace in my collection. I love the velvet flowers. You can't really tell from this picture, but there is a little bird charm above the tear drop charm. I've had lots of comments on this piece. 

Today's card is a lovely poinsettia. I've been wanting to try shaped cards for a while now. It was really easy to do. I cut out two shapes with my Cricut and hinged them together with a folded strip of paper so that you could open it enough to write a message inside. The polka dot paper is pleated, which is something I've been seeing on a lot of cards and scrapbook pages. 

April Cards

Here are the cards for the April Cricut classes.

This first card is a clear one. I used a piece of a transparency for the card. I love the way it turned out. The cartridges used for this one are Accent Essentials and Plantin Schoolbook.

This cute little bird was done with Wild Card, Accent Essentials and Plantin Schoolbook.

Next we have some nice, spring tulips. The cartridges are Accent Essentials and Walk in My Garden.

A trio of iris are next. These are from Walk in My Garden also.

Someone asked for a card for a little girl so here is a cute princess and her frog. The cartridge for this one is Paper Doll Dress Up.

I figured we needed to have a boy card too, so here is a pirate with his flag. Arrgh! This one is also from Paper Doll Dress Up.

Some good news, the classes have become so popular that we will be adding two additional classes in May. There will be two Wednesday night classes and two Friday morning classes. I will also be offering a basics class for those who are new to the Cricut.
