It's Fun to be ONE! :)

I love Emma's videos and blog! This is my first time participating in her "Throwback Thursday" challenge - mostly because I've recently discovered a new love for cricut cartridges. Create a Critter can be blamed for that one LOL. It's so easy and fun to use.

Anyway, back to the challenge - to create a birthday project using Cricut's "Celebration" cart. But, if you don't have that one, it's okay to use an older cartridge instead - after all it is called "Throwback Thursday" ;) I just picked up this oldie (but a goodie) on ebay for just $17! It's A Child's Year - and I love the silhouettes.

I used Basic Grey patterned paper from my stash to make this vintage inspired card!


I cute the boy in the high chair at 4 3/4" and the number one at 1 1/2" using the monogram feature. I finished the title sentiment with an Inkadinkado clear alpha set. Green ribbon along the bottom was the last touch!

Thanks for looking! I'm sure you'll be seeing more of this cart soon. TGIF! :)
