Celebrate Card by Nana Susan

Happy Tuesday!!  Ok, who stayed up late with me to watch the Expression 2 launch on HSN?  Wasn't that fun??  I even saw one of Wendy's birthday layouts on there - woohoo!!  So far, they have announced 2 winners of the design challenge contest.  So the rest of us will have to bite our nails til tomorrow.  And speaking of winners - don't forget to leave a comment today for a chance to win the Elegant Cakes cartridge.  It is gorgeous and will work in any Cricut - not just the Cake machine!

Here's a quick and sweet card that Nana Susan made for her little grandson who is about to turn 2 years old.  See details below...



The card itself is folded to 6 7/8" x 4 7/8". 
The blue mat is 6 1/2" x 4 1/2".
Top animal print is 3 1/2" x 4 1/4".
Lower plaid print is 2 3/4" x 4 1/4".



Cuts are from Birthday Bash cart.
 - the Bear in Wagon is 3 1/2".
 - the number 2 is 1 1/2".
 - "Celebrate" is 3/4".
 - the inside greeting "Happy Birthday Little Guy" is 2 1/2"

Have a fantastic Tuesday!!

    I thought I saw Wendy's bday layout last night!!!! I just posted on her blog asking if it was hers I saw! COOL!

    I would venture a guess that you will be a winner of some sorts because everything you create is fabulous!

    Said "hi" to you at Robyn's live stream last night, but it was moving so stinkin' fast!

    Hope Emily is doing good today and tell Nana Susan that I adore her card!

    WooooHooo! I saw Nana Susan's layout on the 8 a.m. HSN broadcast this morning. Not only did they SHOW it, but they didn't toss it into the pile with the rest, they held it and used it as an example of the amazing things that the E2 can create and went on about her detail, etc. Yaaaaaay Nana Susan!!!!
