sooo much inspiration.
Here's a card I made from this weeks Photo inspired challenge:
And while we’re on the subject of awesome stimulation,
Fantabulous Cricut is full of that daily dose of cricut inspiration.
They’re a new blog site that is defiantly a must see for anyone with a Cricut.
They have tips, tutorials, and of cause a weekly challenge.
This week’s challenge is
Word: Happy
Shape: Flower
The flower on my card is made from the Pagoda cartridge.
Thought about using my Prima flowers but then saw the Fantabulous Cricut challenge and said: “Why not make my own paper flower?”
So I did and I love the way it turned out.
Put together a little tutorial below. Enjoy :)

Thought about using my Prima flowers but then saw the Fantabulous Cricut challenge and said: “Why not make my own paper flower?”
So I did and I love the way it turned out.
Put together a little tutorial below. Enjoy :)
Using the “Pagoda” cartridge:
Shift Lock on
Flower 8
Cut 2 times at 2”
and
Cut 2 times at 1½”
Choose the front of your flower. It doesn’t matter which just, choose the side you like best :)
Ink all sides of the petals on the front.
Then ink the whole back of the petals.
When you’re inking it also helps to shape the flower.
Below I showed the front (on the left) & the back (right).
Next shape the flowers a little more with the ends of the petals pointed downwards, and the inside of petals shaped up.
Last thing is to glue the petals together.
Just add a small amount of glue around the circle in the middle.
Then position the flowers overlapping each other.
Add a center (I used a button) and that’s it.
A great paper flower you made yourself.
