I just bought the Create a Critters cartridge and love it! Can you believe I didn’t own this adorable cartridge?
For my first project I made a quick and easy card that is perfect for a little girl. I never seem to have enough children’s birthday cards on hand and I thought why not stock up.
For this card I used my Expression 2 and cut 2 zebra shadows at 5.6. I used a brad to join the card. You can also weld the cards together, but this time I decided to try something different.
I used all the zebra layers except the flower which is from the George Cartridge and cut at 1.2 inches. I made glitter paste and applied to the flower. Click here to watch my video on how to make glitter paste. I also used glossy accents on the hooves and tail for added shine.
The pattern paper is from Theresa Collins and perfect for adding a feminine touch. The nice thing about this cut is you could eliminate the flower and use masculine papers to make a cute card for a little boy!
I used a Fiskars stamp for the inside of this card. I love their stamps!
Be sure to stop back on Wednesday for a fun new video.

PS Where did you buy your glitter? Love the color!
Diane, thanks for the nice comment! The glitter is part of a package I bought at Jo-Anns. I didn't save the package so not sure what the name of the color is.
Sorry!
Kate, thanks so much for taking the time to comment. I just heard about your basement flooding and your friend's son getting very sick.
Take care and I left you a longer comment on your blog. My thoughts are with you.
