Three Easy Ways to Make a Shaped Card (With and w/o using the Gypsy)

Last week, I had the pleasure of being a guest designer for Everyday Cricut. After I posted my first card, I received several emails and comments asking how to weld a card with and w/o using the Gypsy, so I decided to make a quick video. All three of these techniques are super easy!



In case you missed the post on Everyday Cricut, here is my latest shaped card.



Have a great day and please stop back tomorrow for some fun projects! Hint….one involves a paper sack!

Wonderful tutorial, Linda! You always teach me something new. I didn't think about using the x and y coordinates!

I've never really figured out the Gypsy, so this helped a lot .

I love to make shaped cards but don't have a Gypsy to weld them. Thank goodness for Design Studio. Thank you for your thorough instructions Linda.
