I made this welded frame, bird and "You're the Best" design in the Cricut Design Studio since I thought it would make a handy front for a card. All the pieces are from the Lyrical Letters cartridge. The card I made is actually 6x6 but you could get away with 5x5 or even 5.5x5.5, if you prefer. I would probably give this to someone by hand, rather than mailing, since square cards are more expensive to mail. Another choice is to make a rectangular envelope instead to save on postage. I am not normally too concerned with postage but a square card is almost TWICE the price to mail.
I used My Minds Eye papers - love that they are two sided and coordinating. I inked the edges to distress it even more. Then, I pop dotted the front from the base. All in all, though, a very simple card.
I made the cut file in two sizes, for Baby Bug/Create owners and then for Expression owners.

Enjoy and let me know if you make anything with this!

ReplyDeleteBTW, you misspelled lyrical - I had to look twice to see it.
