DIY Hello Card


Sometimes it's nice to just send a card to say Hello, rather than waiting for a special occasion. With that in mind I decided to create this gorgeous Hello card using the Maggie Holmes Carousel paper & ephemera pack.



To make this card you will need
  • Maggie Holmes Carousel Fun Fair Papers
  • Maggie Holmes Carousel Ephemera Pack
  • Gold glitter card
  • 5" x 7" card blank
  • Paper cutter
  • Double sided tape

To start making the card you will need to cut a 5" x 7" rectangle out of the cream & gold pattern paper and stick this to your card base using double sided tape.

Next cut out a 6" x 4" rectangle from the yellow floral paper and 6" x 2" rectangle of the pink pattern paper.

Stick the patterned gift tag from your ephemera pack to the cream & gold paper and then layer the two rectangles you cut over the top (refer to picture for placement).

Now cut out your 'hello' sentiment from the gold card, I used my Cricut Explore to cut this out (image #M364D7 - delete the frame layer so you are left with just the hello) Resize the hello so its 5.5" long, once cut add to your card using double sided tape.

Finish the card by adding on the ticket to give it that magical touch!

First Edition Making Memories Card

I could spend hours just looking through the Cricut Design Space, there is so much inspiration to be had and so many different projects! Whilst scrolling through the Design Space one Saturday afternoon I found the 'Hexagon Quilt Card', a cute card designed to look like a quilt. As soon as I saw it I thought of my mum, she is loves sewing and has recently started quilting classes, and it is her birthday soon. I decided to make the card using the First Edition Making Memories Paper Pad. This fun paper pad has quite a modern palette of pinks, purples and mint green with glitter accents. Adorned with beautiful hand lettering and elements including florals, hearts, love letters, and geometric patterns – it seemed perfect to create this Quilt Birthday Card. Firstly I found the Quilt Card Design on Cricut Design Space (Hexagon Quilt Card) and then picked which patterns to choose. I choose 5 different patterns from the Making Memories paper pad and teamed these up with a lila
