Greetings Everyone … This is ♥Carol♥ …
Today I’d like to share a card I made using the new Cricut Cartridge From My Kitchen. As you know, one of my passions, besides creating crafts with my Cricut, is writing poems and short verses … this has turned out to be a wonderful compliment to my greeting cards. Today’s card combines the two. It’s a simple little verse, but seems to fit perfectly for this card.
This is a tri-fold “Get Well” card. The base of the card was made with double-sided paper, which worked out really well when I folded up the two pocket flaps. BTW, I've also included a diagram with the measurements for making this card. (click on any image to see it larger). All cuts were made using the From My Kitchen Cricut cart. The print is computer generated onto card stock. I also added one wiggly eye and a ribbon for closure. A little hand doodling and the card was done.
Here is the face of the card ...

I hope you enjoy this card and will give it a try, it's really an easy card to make, and you're welcome to use the verse as well if you'd like. Feel free to leave comments, I love seeing your thoughts!
Have a great day everyone ... and thanx for visiting my Little Creation Corner
Hugz,
♥Carol♥

Hi Carol,
I have been seeing your work on the Cricut MB and I decided to jump over to your blog.
This card is the best idea! I am planning on trying it out soon and have some ready to go for cold season. I love this cart- I have yet to use it much but I like to know it is there. Thank you for posting such detailed scoring directions for us scrap lifters out here.
Love the card - appropriate for both male and female. I have the From my kitchen on order -- but will have to save as a xmas gift from hubbie.... love your work.
This is just AWESOME!! I LOVE it!! TFS!!
Congrats on the CHIRP Mention!!
LOVE this!!!
