Happy Wednesday everyone! It's been one of those weeks in my little part of the world. My oldest daughter is graduating from Armstrong State this Saturday and wouldn't you know it but at the last minute I decide to go and get sick. Regardless of all the chaos I did find time for this week's fun, fun, fun Cricut Cardz Challenge over at Cardztv.
This week our challenge was to create a card based on our favorite Christmas carol. While I don't have an end all - be all favorite because it's too hard to chose just one - I did choose to use Brenda Lee's Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree.
For my card I used:
Christmas Cheer for the tree cut at 4"
George for the frame - I laid two rectangles one inside the other. The largest one cut at 3 1/2" x 5" and the smaller one 2 1/2" x 4".
In order to get my text to print on the frame I had to use MS Word to layout three different text boxes at the correct size and spacing to print as seen on the card.
And now that you've seen my card why don't you play along? Create your own Christmas card based on a carol/song link it up to this week's challenge.
