I received product at no cost in exchange for this post.
Make an Ornate Frame Photo Card with Cricut Explore Air 2Perfect for Mother's day!
I used my Cricut Explore Air™ 2 machine to make this darling card!
Will I be required to use cartridges with the Cricut?
A long time ago, Cricut machines used cartridges. You had to get all the cartridges in order to get the shapes, fonts or designs you wanted. That is no longer the case! You can use the stock images (most of which are included in Cricut Access subscription) and a few that cost a little extra, like a dollar. If you have used cartridges in the past, there's a place to insert the cartridge still and upload all your images into your account. Then you never need to use your cartridge again!
Now it's simple to use Cricut Design Space to make your own custom projects using stock images!
Go to Cricut Design Space:
Click "Create New Project"
Then "insert images"
Search "frame"
Then scroll until you find this ornate frame.
Then set it to draw it with the pen or "write" icon.
I added some scallop cut lines in each corner after I took this picture too.
It's easy to add layers, make it draw this one first and then cut the scallops.
The scallops were their own shape in Cricut Design Space too.
I love to watch this machine draw! It so mesmerizing!
And the little scallops are perfect to hold a little photo.
Then score and fold in half.
Insert a little picture and give for Mother's day!
Let the kids color it too, if you want!
I love paper projects and the Cricut makes it a breeze!
If you don't have one, look into it. I love mine and use it nearly daily!
