Cricut Circle Blog Weekly Challenge #1

Weekly Challenge #1: OOH, LA LA! FRENCH MANOR!

Pull out your FRENCH MANOR CARTRIDGE and create a project of your choice (card, scrapbook page, home decor project, . . . the sky’s the limit!). But here’s the catch, your project must also include JEWELS or PEARLS. Project must be newly created for this challenge and must include atleast 2 cuts to qualify.

So for this card, I pulled out the French Manor Cartridge and decided to use the bird, and the twigs, and underneath the bird is a beautiful lacey cut out. I distressed the whole card with Tim Holtz distress ink. Believe it or not I saved his HSN show on my dvr and watch it periodically for his blending techniques. I added a cute sentiment from Pink By Design Go Green Stamp Set. I added some pearls using some glossy accents, since the batteries in my I-rock are done. This was a great challenge and I really loved how this card came out.

Crafty Wishes,
Meriah

I love it, too! I always have a hard time using my French Manor, I don't know why. Very pretty card and the sentiment works perfectly.
