Thanks to You Card

Step by Step Instructions:1. Using the Smart Trimmer Guillotine blade, cut a White piece of American Crafts Cardstock to 10"x7".

Score a line with blade #2811 down the center, making the card base 5"x7".

2. Freehand cut the apple shape, using the Freestyle Mouse #6040 and Straight blade #2801 on the Smar

Trimmer Cutting Mat. If you prefer, you can ink the edges of the apple with Colorbox Inks 'Chestnut Roan'.

3. I used some scraps of Bazzill Brown (textured cardstock) to cut the stem, & Green (dotted swiss) to cut

the leaf shape. Both can be cut using the Freestyle Mouse #6040 on the Smart Trimmer Cutting Mat. Ink the

edges of the leaf, with Colorbox Inks 'Olive pastel'. Adhere the stem and le

shapes, to the apple, using Glue Arts Glue Rings.

4. Cut a piece of K&Co's 'Wild Saron- Notebook' paper, to 4 3/4" x 6

3/4", adhere to White Card Base, using the Glue Glider Pro with PermaTac

Cartridge. Optional: distress the edge of the 'notebook' paper, with a nail

le, or sanding block.

5. Wrap a 18" piece of the 'Journey' Bobbin Ribbon around the left

edge of the card, and tie in a knot. Adhere the apple to the center of the

card using Glue Arts Glue Rings.

6. Cut a 2" letter 'A', and a 1" '#' sign, from a piece of Yellow Bazzill Bling Cardstock, using the George Cricu

cartridge. Trim the '#' sign to be a '+' sign, and adhere the 'A+' to the center of the apple, using Glue Arts GlueRings.

7. Using the Coredinations 'Black Magic' cardstock, and the George Cricut cartridge, cut the 'Thanks' wor

in a 1" size. Adhere to the top of the card, using Glue Arts Glue Rings.

8. With the Alphalicious Cricut cartridge, cut 'to you' & 'I made it through!', in a 1" size. This is also from th

Coredinations 'Black Magic' cardstock. Adhere 'to you' to the bottom edge of the front of the card, and the 'I

made it through!' to the inside of the card, using the Glue Arts Glue Rings.

Tools:Purple Cows 2 in 1 Combo Trimmer #1040

Purple Cows Click Blade Score #2811

On the Road Card

Step by Step Instructions:

1. With a White piece of American Crafts textured cardstock, use the 2-in-1 Combo Trimmer #1040 and cut

1/2" x 8" piece. Use the Score blade #2811 (on the rotary side) and score a line 3 3/4" in on the 7 1/2" side (to ma

card base that will be 3 3/4" x 8" when folded).

2. Trim a piece of the bright & colorful Imaginisce 'Let's Roll- Straight Ahead' patterned paper to 3 5/8" x 7 3

using the guillotine side of the 2-in-1 Combo Trimmer. Optional: Ink edges of this piece with Colorbox Ink Queu

Lipstick Red'.

Supplies:American Crafts Cardstock, white

Inaginisce Lets Roll Collection

Clearsnap Colorbox Inks, Lipstick Red,

American Crafts Tinsel Letters (Cherry Red)

GlueArts Glue Rings, Glue Glider Pro

American Crafts Thicker Letters

3. Take out the die-cut 'Road' frame, from the coordinating chipboard die-cut shee

and you'll need the blue 'vroom!' from the Rub-On sheet. Before adhering these, make

sure they will t in the top left edge of your card front (straight ahead piece). When you

t them to your liking, Rub on the 'vroom!', and then place the die-cut frame over it,

securing with 2 green snaps (or brads, whatever you have on hand!) Note: the die-cut

chipboard stickers are self-adhesive, so you can leave it as is, if you like, they stick great!

4. Take some American Crafts 'Tinsel' letters in Cherry Red, and spell 'on the road'along the front middle of the card. Wrap a double length of Green Oray

ribbon along the bottom edge, securing with a bow along the right

bottom corner of the card front. You can now adhere your embellished

'straight ahead' piece to the white card base, using your Glue Glider Pro

with PermaTac cartridge.

5. Here's your chance to get even more creative! Use the Rub-

On's/Die-cut chipboard stickers to create the rest of your message. I

chose to use the 'cruisin' and some more American Crafts Thicker Letters

to spell 'to success' in black and red (black - Gift Box; red - Tinsel).

6. Cut a strip of the arrows (color of your choice, here I used green),from the 'Let's Roll- Let's Go' patterned paper. Ink the edges, if you

choose. I used Colorbox Queue Ink - Dark Brown. And secured a strip under the 'success' letters. I also used the l

overs to embellish the upper right-hand corner of the top inside edge, along with the 'beep beep' rub on in red

You'll have a hard time choosing from all the brightly colored Rub-On's and Stickers to embellish your card to yo

liking!)

7. Top it all o with a special dose of your own handwriting! I nished the sentiment here, by adding 'Than

for all your help!'
