Coloring Cricut Die Cuts - Fall/Autumn Card Fox "Thanks"

I've created a cute Thank You Card with a Fall/Autumn look to it using Cricut Close To My Heart (CTMH) cartridge Artistry to make the Fox with inspiration from Mary of Cardz TV. You can click here to see Mary's card.

Used white cardstock like Mary and colored the white cardstock with Tim Holtz Distress Inks using sponge daubers. Added red cardstock heart. Added brown pearls for Fox eyes & nose.

Used MISTI to stamp the sentiment on the speech bubble.

Daisy taking a nap after I walked her. Doesn't she look like she is curled up like a Fox?

Pens & Pencils Box

Created this Pens & Pencils Box by recycling a cardboard box with a pencils/school theme so this time I thought inside the box. The box is sturdy & is from PetCareRX/Vets First Choice packages for Frontline Plus & Heartguard that I order online for my dog Daisy

Cut the words "PENS & PENCILS" and label using Cricut cartridge Home Organization which I can use as a subscribed member of Cricut Design Space. Used 'Attach' option to cut the words out of the green cardstock and placed this on the red cardstock for a watermelon look. Added the letters without the fill-in pieces and used a black Sharpie marker to give it the watermelon seed look.

Stamped a pencil. Will look thru my stamps for a pen stamp to add to it later.
