Polkadoodles 8

This week at Polkadoodles it's Lou's turn to set the them and she would like to see "Shaped Cards".

Mine has been cut on the Cricut welding elements together on the DS from Storybook and Plantin Schoolbook. The paper is from the Love and Cherish CD, the border Martha Stewart embossed butterflies and the flower made from plain paper, punched several time and spritzed with Glimmer Mists to add some glitz. The sentiments is stamped with the rubber stamp sheet which matches the Back to Nature CD and the butterfly is also a punch and has been glittered with a quickie glue pen and crystal glitter.

Hi Brenda, I love this. The shape of the card is fabulous and that bp just gorgeous. I will get the cd one day I keep promising myself.
Good news. I made a rose! I tried again with some lighter weight paper - just good copy paper - but after spritzing with some glimmer mist I was well pleased with the result. You may see some on my blog soon, now I think I've got the hang of it.
