Welcome Back for Day 3 of our Fabulous Fall Blog Hop. I would like to say "Thank You" to each and every one for either returning or becoming a new follower. I hope that you have seen a project or two that you have enjoyed or found one to try on your own.
Autumn Has Arrived
I must say that I do not typically use the card feature on any of the Cricut cartridges because I like to create my own designs, but I thought I would try this one time. I used the Stretch Your Imagination cartridge and selected the Tree on p. 47 since it went with this leaf paper I bought a couple weeks ago while Joann's had it on sale for 5 pieces for $1.00.
I have to say...I like it! You must definitely add some pizzazz to personalize the cut-out, but the feature has lots of potential. Who knew? I will reconsider using some of the other cards too.
This card was cut on 12 X 12 paper ~ fit to size which was 5 1/2". Autumn was cut at 3" from the same cartridge ~ p. 42. I added orange gems in the corners and brown ribbon around the trunk.
Inside of the card has two pieces of layered papers and leaves in each corner.
Another goodie is being added today...remember to leave a comment each day for the greatest chance of winning. The winner will be announced Monday, November 8th.
Be sure to hop on over to Star for the next Fall project.
Stay Creative,
Georgiana : )
I Love your project! I must admit I haven't used the card feature at all. I will definitely reconsider now. This is beautiful!

I have yet to use the card feature as well, but will try it out soon based on what I see here! I love it, and Stretch Your Imagination is one of my favorite cartridges for holiday projects :) Great job!
ReplyDeleteI agree! I really don't use the card feature much. I love the color combination on your card. It's not the traditional fall colors but it turned out so nice.
ReplyDeleteI think the card feature is probably one of the most over looked on all carts. You did a great job! Thanks for the chance to win!!!
ReplyDeleteLove the card, and the cut with the tree is perfect, along with the colors you used! Great hop...had a lot of fun!
ReplyDeleteI never use that feature either, but this turned out great, guess I will have to take a second look at all those card features! Great paper too!!
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful. The paper is gorgeous. Just yesterday I was looking at that cut. It seems I missed it before, but noe I will definitely use it.
ReplyDeleteI have used the card feature a few times and have really liked it. Saves a lot of time. Your card is beautiful. TFS
