Dream Vacation

I got the new Formal Occasion Cricut cartridge and just had to play with it. I created this fun card of a dream vacation spot.


This cut is so cute, and I had the perfect background paper to go with it. I just added ribbon and a sentiment. The image has a lot of detail, so I left the rest of the card simple.

I was able to use paper from my stash, and the ribbon was from a wedding favor. I just couldn't toss it, and I'm glad I got to reuse it on this project.

Here is the inside:


Thanks

    It's snowing here in NW Wisconsin, so your card is particularly appealing. I fear spring will never arrive! Very cute! Thanks for joining the 3 Girl Jam challenge! Julie O, 3GJ DT member
