Lamb Easter ATC

Created this Artist Trading Card ATC using Martha Stewart Birthday Cake Art Cricut cartridge Lamb. I like the Cricut Cake cartridges because the images are not overly detailed since they are intended for cakes so they make for easier & simpler images to cut.

Used Kraft cardstock for base of ATC. Embossed the Kraft with Cuttlebug Chicken Wire embossing folder which is wonderful for a farm animal image. I really like this lighter color Kraft cardstock and it embossses nicely. Added a gingham ribbon bow. Stamped an Easter sentiment on sentiment banner tag. Stamped Lamb with a whimsy sentiment reminiscent of Lambs & Sheep branding seen on farms so farmers know who the animal belongs to. Embossed the Lamb to give it a woolly look. Used glitter& liquid Pearls on the Lamb's ear. Added a wiggle eye.
