Cooking With Cricut #45

Happy Wednesday! Are you guys ready for another fun challenge at Cooking With Cricut this week? In honor of Columbus setting sail on this date in 1492, you are challenged to incorporate a sailboat or sailboat inspired theme into your projects.

Here is what I did:



I decided to make a Congrats card for a new baby boy. I cut my boat and frames out of Just Because Cards. The frames were cut at 4.75" and 4.5". The boat was cut at 3". I ran the card base as well as the top frame layer through the cuttlebug and stamped my sentiment directly onto the sailboat.

Thanks so much for stopping by my blog and looking at my latest creation. I really appreciate it. Don't forget to stop by Cooking With Cricut to see what the rest of the amazing DT came up with to inspire you as well as entering the challenge yourself. I look forward to seeing your creation. Have a great crafty day!

    Love this card, Stacey! It is so soft and sweet -- the embossing is wonderful. Great job!

    Like the sailboat. I grew up E coast of FL & crewed on a sailboat. Was hard work but was fun nonetheless.
