CTMH Artfully Sent circut cartridge first card

I am so excited to share with you the card I made yesterday. The new Artfully Sent CTMH Cricut cartridge is just amazing!! It took me a bit to figure out what awesome card I wanted to make first. I decided on this beautiful nature scene of a deer and a rabbit. I saw this card from pictures at the CTMH convention and I was just blown away by it. I cut the card with my explore. The background is CTMH kraft paper and then I cut the bush in pear. I added a little detail to the background with Shinhan Twin Touch Markers. I just love all the images on this cartridge!!  

 I filmed a short video of how the card opens. Stay tuned tomorrow for that! I am loving this 30 years of happy stamp set too. I stamped a bunch of cute things. I will try to get that posted soon. I was too excited to wait on this card!
