Cricut 'Wild Card' Series #2

Good afternoon!
My card today is the second in my Wild Card series; the 'Bandaid' or Plaster if you're English! :)


This is of course the perfect 'Get Well Soon' themed card and so I cut the phrase and its shadow from my Paper Lace cartridge and covered it in glitter glue to make it really sparkle!
I had these little flower die cuts in my stash that I layered up for embellies.

I added these to the base card that I had cut in the blackout feature and the liner feature is the small 'breathable' padded section in the middle, raised up on foam pads for dimension.

Another simple card but its so effective, when I gave it to my friend she was really impressed and it really stood out amongst the other cards she had been given!

Cricut 'Wild Card' Series #1!

Hello! :)
I bought the Wild Card cartridge for my cricut and have hardly used it yet so am setting myself a personal challenge to make one of each card style and blog it!
This is a fab cartridge with almost 40 different shaped designs of card base and the matching envelopes are amazing!

There are the base card and envelope as well as a: frame, phrase, icon, liner and blackout feature on each design and there is even an alphabet too! I love how much stuff you get on cricut carts. :)
My first card has been uploaded to DC as a challenge card so some followers may have seen it already:

This is the owl card! As it was my first attempt I only used the basic card shape and the liner which was the eyes and kept my decoration simple.
I added a small piece of the dark brown card inside the card base to 'highlight' the beak, inked the edges of the card, and the 'feathers' and then added leaves cut from a punch and cuttlebug quilling die.
The sentiment pictured was removed and a little die cut one added but I forgot to take an update pic before posting it!

TFL, Ni :) x
