Exploring Cricut Daily Post ~ The Buzz

Welcome to another daily project for Exploring Cricut. I am so excited that Spring is finally here. The last few days have been decidedly cold here in Kentucky but I feel certain warm weather will return. So in the meantime, I must pacify myself with creating warm weather projects. I found this cute bumblebee (using the blackout feature) on Cricut's Home Decor and went to work! What do you think?

The cherry on top...

I need to use up some old pattern paper. I have tons of it. I love it all but I have entirely too much! I wanted to make an early sweetest card. Immediately I knew I wanted something sappy and sweet on the front. The Cricut Home Decor cartridge has a wonderful image of a cupcake... and thus began this card. The paper is from Chatterbox. I love the soft colors. They remind me of sherbert. The ribbon is from Stampin Up and the embellishments are Robin's Nest Dew Drops. The sentiment is from a new set of Hero Arts stamps. And the cherry on top looks real. I used acrylic dimensional lacquer to achieve the look. The whole card looks good enough to eat!
