Today over at Erica's My Cricut Craftroom the design team was tasked with either using the Imagine, CCR, E2 or the letter "D". I have chosen to use the Imagine. The Imagine is new to me, just getting one at Christmas, but I am loving how easy it is to put projects together that look great. Here is my project for today:
I altered one of the included projects, just a little, to make this perfect birthday card for my adult son. This project is on the Buccaneer Imagine cartridge and is really intended to be used as a party invitation. I cut the card and matching envelope at 10.5, the largest that would be allowed. I then cut both the happy birthday and rum swilling pirate at 3", using the layers feature for both. "Birthday" is pop dotted for added dimension. I cut the pirate twice, one combined and then again using the layers. The combined image was placed on the card base, then I pop dotted all the layers onto the second pirate and placed him on an action wobble to give him a little more movement.
Never heard of Action Wobbles? They are little springs with adhesive on both sides;
Here's a pic showing all the dimension used in this card:
Make sure you stop at Erica's My Cricut Craft Room to see more projects today!
Thanks for stopping by and happy scrappin!

Love this card Liz!! I really like how you cut the images two times to give it more dimension. I am going to have to try that trick!
