Two Great Combinations

Artwork by Krista Hershberger

This layout combines the use of our new Artbooking Cricut Cartridge with the National Stamping Month special, "You Are My Happy" stamp sets.  The layout is SO quick and easy, when you use this cartridge. All elements are designed to be in proportion.  So when you select 11" for the main setting (the normal layout size for a 12 x 12 paper) then EVERYTHING - including the gifts, the banners, the "Birthday" title . . . they are ALL automatically cut to just the right size, so they are in proportion with the mats and everything else. Couldn't be easier!  Then the "Happy" and tag sentiment are added with our great trio of stamps, available for just $10 this month, with qualifying order.

Here is a close-up of the banner.  It's cut twice - once in Buttercup and once in Chocolate.  Place the Chocolate underneath and just a tad low to create a beautiful shadow effect.

The birthday gift stack is cut in Buttercup cardstock,

and the matching overlay us cut in Chocolate to add all the detail.

Perfection!
