BBTB2 - Mother's Day Challenge

I thought maybe this was a good challenge to try out just so my Mom would have a handmade card this year!   Bitten By the Bug 2 Challenge Blog has a challenge this week to create a Mother's Day Card, so I got busy with my Cricut Machine and Cricut Craftroom to come up with this little card!

Details:

• Open the Cricut Craftroom Software
• Using the Storybook Cartridge with the Shadow Feature type the word MOM all in Capital letters at 2 ½”.
• Move the letters so they are slightly overlapping.
• Weld the letters together using the weld feature button.
• Cut the welded words 2 times from White Cardstock and one time from the small pink polka dotted patterned paper.
• Score the top 1/8” of one of the white cuts and glue the second cut to the top half of the scored cut to create a card base.
• Glue the patterned paper piece to the white card base.
• Using the Cricut Craftroom Software cut 3 of the Flower 5 from the Mother’s Day Bouquet at 2”, 1 ¾” and 1 ½” from the larger polka dotted patterned paper.
• Apply a thin layer of  Glossy Accents to each of the flower cuts and shake some glitter on them.  Once the flower pieces are dry, curl the petals slightly using a Pencil then using a pop dot attach each layer offsetting the petals.
• Cut 3 of the Leaf2 from the Mother’s Day Bouquet cricut cartridge at 1 ¾” from the Beige patterned paper.
• Glue to the leaves to the back of the flower and glue to the centre of the letter “O” on the card.
• Apply the pearl to the centre of the flower.
