ReplyDeletelove the card - especially how it opens. I'm just hoping that 2014 is better than 2013 - we had a death in the family and some teenager issues this past fall - I'm hoping that 2014 will be better and that everyone is healthy and happy.
ReplyDeleteLovely gatefold card. It is so pretty as a Valentine card.

Love the variety of the new give-away cartridge. I have never done the mini albums, have so many pictures that I just try to get them all in large albums.
ReplyDeleteLove the card. Will have to try mini album.

Love this card so cute ....wish I had this cartridge :(
ReplyDeleteI use the CCR always when using my Cricut. I don't even know how to use it directly. How does the 4" translate to the CCR? You have a default height, but if I choose that at 4", that does not translate to the same size card as if you choose 4" from the machine. Any tips?
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing this card. I love the CTMH cartridges, and I love getting insights into how many goodies are in them! I'm looking forward to crossing things off of my bucket list this year!
