Cricut Get Well Soon

Good morning and welcome to the first Bitten By the Bug 2 challenge of 2021. Our theme is Get Well Wishes and is open for the next two weeks. I always try to begin with about 3 ideas for projects when creating for our themes. Today I am showing you all three attempts.

My first card from Simple Cards turned out to do double time by using the negatives. I used the same navy card stock behind the original cut as the card base for the negatives.

I used the original cut for a stencil prior to adhering the back layer. I tape it to my desktop using blue painters tape. The original was not exactly A2 size but I did cut my negative card that size, hence the navy blue lip sticking out. I centered the stencil before gluing the pieces in place.

Here is the completed negative card.

I also made this whale card. I used more Quick Quotes paper, however, this is from a nautical collection. I felt that was fitting for the whale card.

And finally, I would like to show how not all ideas come out the way I plan. After much consideration about what printed papers to use, I thought this black and white would look great with a pop of red. FAIL. I almost didn't post it, but I decided you should see what cards I would typically not blog. While the first card turned out beautifully (the inside is a nice soft pattern) with the print working for the card...this print did NOT lend itself to the cut.

Ingredients:
Quick Quotes Harmony and Anchor's Away papers

Quick Quotes Deep Sea Powderpuff chalking ink

Basic Grey Spice Market paper (black and white)

misc card stock

Sorry you're feeling ruff...Frantic Stamper Oscar card

I have a friend who is under the weather so I made this precious doggie card for him. I love this die from Frantic Stamper. It pairs great with the sentiment stamp that I just purchased. I was inspired by the cute dog inspiration from The Card Concept, although I think the sentiment and recipient deemed a more masculine color palette.

I found the plaid paper in my stash and it wasn't labled. I used a couple of brown papers to stamp the sentiment and emboss the paw prints.

Ingredients:

Frantic Stamper Oscar die

Creative Stamping Furry Friends sentiment

Darice 12" border pawprint embossing folder

Quick Quotes Milk Chocolate Powderpuff chalking ink

Stampin Up Glossy Glaze (eyes and nose)

misc papers and card stock

Just because...here's a pic of my beautiful boy.
