Sophie arrived several days ago but today is the first day I've actually had a moment to sit down and play with it. Out of all of the Cricut Circle cartridges this is the only one I have actually been excited about receiving. Actually, this is only the second Circle cartridge that I've really liked. It's right up there with some of my favorites - Elegant Edges, Damask Decor, and Flower Shoppe. I can see myself using this over and over again.
Without any specific occasion in mind I decided to make some general sentiment cards tonight. I didn't really have a particular theme in mind, but just sort of went with whatever struck me. I picked one of the flower shaped cards from the Card 1 feature I believe, and made several versions using paper I printed from my Imagine. Audrey is my go-to cartridge for paper in seems. I have quite a few more, but I keep coming back to Audrey. I added flowers I quilled from Flower Shoppe, along with leaves that were also cut from Flower Shoppe. You guys know how much I love things to pop. At first I didn't think I was going to be able to add any dimension other than the quilled flower but I was able to work in a bit of dimension with the leaves as well. I don't know what I'd do without my pop dots!! The bling was the final touch. I am pretty pleased with the way these cards turned out.
Recipe:
Paper: Cricut Imagine Audrey; Black - AC Cardstock
Cartridges: Sophie, Flower Shoppe
Stamps: Stampin' Up, Verve
Bling - My Stash
