January Stamp of the Month Art #5



Art by Karen Pedersen



Here, Karen brings back the art of creating textured paper with her stamps Before we had so many gorgeous pre-printed paper, this is what we did all the time! It's so great to see that technique used so beautifully, once again.


The puffy snowflake? Cut with the Cricut AP and topped with Liquid Applique!

January Stamp of the Month Art #4




Art by Chris Green




A scalloped half-circle makes a great boat! Who'd have thought it?


This great Wonderland paper that we used so much for wintertime images also makes a lovely "little boy" card.

Our Cricut Art Philosophy has a most amazing ability to cut such creative card bases! This card is done using the AP, and the circles are cut with the AP as well. Such artistic look - yet SO easy to do!
