I finally had a chance to make a card just for fun. I'd received a sweet thank you note from my BFF Becky's niece who stayed with us for a few days before moving into the dorm at USF to study with the San Francisco ballet this summer so I decided to make her a card. I had bought Hello Kitty Font awhile ago just for the ballerina and thought Leslie might think she was cute. I made a simple shaped card by welding the shadow cut using Design Studio. The tutu, bow and slippers were cut from glitter paper I had gotten a in pack from WalMart.
Leslie has been working hard and is very tired from her classes. She says they're even more difficult than the ones in New York where she has studied the past 3 summers so I thought this sentiment might be a little pick me up.

There aren't alot if bells and whistles on this card but I did do a little popping of the layers for dimension. Other than that I think she pretty much stands on her own. Hope she likes.
I'm getting questions on this post that I can't answer personally because there is no contact info or blog in your google account. Not you Julie, but I figure you'll be around again sooner or later. LOL I did cut the mat for the inside sentiment first and then used removable tape to position the cut on the paper that I had already printed with the sentiment, then ran it through again. As far as the welding, I only have DS. To weld the tops you must turn the image 180 degrees and then flip the shapes to get it to match up. Hope that helps. xxD
This is so sweet and adorable Donna!I love all the sparkles!!

This is soooo cute! How did you get the sentiment on the inside card? Did you cut first and then run it through the printer? I really want to learn how to do this, but can't figure out how to match up my printed wording on my cricut mat.....
