Cricut Die Cut Trading Cards

Hello. My son asked me to create mini cards for his classmates. I allowed him to choose the critter from the Cricut Create A Critter Cartridge in the Cricut Design Space. I sized the images to fit a 3 in. x 4 in. panel. The cat is a bit smaller since it has to share the space with the greeting. I grouped the sentiment and the cat. I also unlocked its size so I can re-size it to fill the whole panel.

I embellished the cat with flocking powder on the ears and whiskers. After I adhered the layers, I applied Ranger Black Enamel Accents to the the eyes. I applied Nuvo Aqua Shimmer Glitter Gloss Pen to the sentiment, cat's bow and the banana peel. I adhered a blue gem to the bow. I set this to dry.

For the panel, I die cut the card stock using a stitched die from the Mama Elephant Peek A Frame Creative Cuts set. I trimmed some patterned paper at 2 3/4" x 3 3/4". I rounded the corners using We R Memory Keepers Corner Chomper. I adhered this to the stitched panel. I then adhered the sentiments and critters to the patterned paper.

Thank you for visiting my blog. Have a blessed, brilliant and creative day!
