More Cricut Fun with CTMH's Art Philosophy Collection!

The cold weather is bringing me down, so I decided to take a break and craft a bit -- and I needed some bright and cheery colors! :-)

First, I made a fun card with the Art Philosophy Seasons stamp set, that comes bundled with the cartridge. I used the "christmas tree" stamp and cut-out as a banner on a party card. I went with a rainbow effect using Topiary, Sunflower, Sorbet, Tulip, Gypsy and Pacifica colors. Add some ribbon and a little bling with the "It's a Party" sentiment from the Art Philosophy Celebration stamp set, and it's finished! Does that lift your spirits or what?



I loved the colors so much with the Kraft cardstock as the background, that I decided to keep playing with the same color scheme. This time around however, I made a mini-card set. I made a set of six 3"x3" cards with matching envelopes and even a cute little holder for all of them. I selected a basic shape for each card from the Art Philosophy cartridge and then added texture and design with the Unscripted stamp set. I also cut out a coordinating envelope for each card with the cartridge too.



Last, but not least, I cut out a little card holder and decorated it up to match to hold the entire set.



Mission accomplished: spirits lifted!
