Here's where they are located in the Artiste handbook:
Using paper from the CTMH Chantilly paper pack, I cut the card at 5-1/2". It produces a card at the regular A2 size of 4-1/4"x 5-1/2".
The matching shape on the swing part can be found on the Close to My Heart Art Philosophy Cricut cartridge as seen below:
I cut the shape above twice at 2-1/2" in white and once in pink at 2-3/4" I then stamped on one of the white pieces using the CTMH Perfect Fit Frames Set with the CTMH Honey inkpad, followed by the "celebrate" from the CTMH Perfect Fit Birthday Set using the CTMH Cotton Candy inkpad.

ReplyDeleteHi Joy!
ReplyDeleteBoy am I glad that you posted this! I knew that this cart. had the ability to cut the swing cards BUT...HOW did you know what the coordinating shape was to layer it? AARRGGHH That has been SO frustrating and then if you finally figure it out...HOW did you know what size to cut it at?
I would sure appreciate your help. Maybe a tutorial or a video?
I sure wish that Prove Craft had done a little bit of a better job labeling this for us. ;)

I would love to be able to print the directions, however, guess I'm doing something wrong as it wants to print 38 pages of things, which I do not need. Help plese. George's Red Barn in Oregon

ReplyDeleteI have never made a swing card before. This is so neat! Thanks for sharing. I did not know that that is included in the "Artiste" cartridge. Do these cards fit into a standard size envelope or do you make your own?

Joy! Thanks for this. I just got the Artiste bundle and was looking through the book and was pleasantly surprised about the swing cards. I was about the buy the sizzix dies by Stephanie Barnard that do that same thing! Score!!! Now I don't have to and with your tutorial it will be a snap! Thanks for making it plain and simple. good luck in your business!

ReplyDeleteDowneyoceanscrapper :)
I have not made a swing card, but have seen them on Sizzix blogs. I have not wanted to invest in that system since I have my Cricut. I KNEW there had to be a way to use the Cricut to do the same thing, but had not spent time trying to figure it out. Since I have the Artiste cartridge I will be making some of these cards! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteGreat card...TFS! I LOVE swing cards and have labored making them by hand with my Xacto knife and sometimes I even get it right the first time LOL!!! I had no idea this shape is on the Artiste cart and that is why I love your blog because you are always showing us something new. Of course my wallet is groaning because it can't keep up with it all, but maybe somehow I may find a deal on this cart as I can't stop daydreaming about it. :)
ReplyDeleteI have never made a swing card, but I'm gonna enjoy attempting to make one. Thank you so much for this very cute idea. And I had no idea this card was on Artiste.
