Father's Day Card

1st I have to say how much I love my Cricut. It has come to the rescue for many gifts and ideas I have. Thanks Cricut machine you are awesome:) I used the Father's Day cartridge for the card.
Set Cricut to 3 1/2". Start with the green paper and use the "Best Day Ever", save the "Dad" and the background from the green paper. Same settings and use Kraft Paper. Since this paper is a little thicker you will need to use High Pressure to get it to cut good. Save the background and the "Dad" from this. Using the Orange paper keep the Cricut set on 3 1/2" and cut the background that goes with the Best Dad ever, to make the layer. You will want to glue the green background to the center of the green paper. Glue the orange to the Kraft paper, I put styrofoam squares to raise the design off the paper. After that I glued the green "Dad" to the Kraft paper "Dad". I also attached styrofoam squares to the back of the letters. Now glue those onto the front. I added screw brads to each side of the Kraft paper, but I will post a pic of that tomorrow. Have a good night, hope ya like:)
