A Surprise from Lyrical Letters-Cut files available



I have been terribly guilty lately of buying up a storm and then not taking the time to fully investigate the possibilites of each purchase. (Now don't you tell me that doesn't sound familiar. LOL) So I decided to go back and look at some of my fairly recently purchased Cricut cartridges and was I surprised to find these simple ADORABLE shapes on Lyrical Letters. Sometimes it's best to keep it simple (I never thought I'd EVER hear myself say that) but I made a couple of shaped cards using the penguin and frog. These guys go together in a jiffy and were really fun to make. Besides, I'd been asked to do some less involved cards using fewer carts by the readers on Custom Crops so I thought these filled the bill.

Now I have to admit I couldn't resisit adding a little cap to the penguin which is from Pooh and Friends, but I also included a version without so these little cards can be made from just one cart. Not my usual style, but I hope you like. Click HERE to view the article and download the .cut file if you wish.
Also, for those of you who loved We Are The World, I'm pleased to say the article and .cut file for this card are available HERE.
