I made this card using the Christmas Cheer cartridge on my cricut. I hadn't realised there was a card and envelope option on there. It cuts a fab scalloped edge to the card, however due to my superior photographic skills you can't see it.

I do like my Cricut but it takes me ages to make anything. I made two of these and it took one and a half hours. I mean, look at it, it's not exactly rocket science is it?

I have one of those DIY calendars, so I made this to go on it for December. I was hugely excited by it at the start of the year, and my excitement last well into February. But it has hung there, blankly staring back at me for most of the following months. I thought I should make a bit of an effort for the last month. Again, it was cut using Christmas cheer. Again, it took me flippin ages.

I am SO buying that cartridge!! It's fab! Sam, do you buy a new mat every 25 cuts? I am convinced if the card was thick enough you could shove it through on its own. Share more Cricut joy!! xx
