And last but not least, my favorite of the day, and #8 in my Just Because Cards Series, the Sheep cut! How cute is he! I LOVE this paper I picked up from Reminisce, how perfect is it! I love,love, love it! Sad how a card can bring so much joy to my heart:) Hopefully some of you out there can relate!

Okay so this card is cut at 5 1/4 inches but the sentiment seemed to overwhelming for the card at that size, so I recut the sentiment at 4 inches. Much better. My sheepy got the royal treatment with some DCWV glitter paper.
I also wanted to pass on a little cricut tip for all who are maybe newer to their cricuts. I wanted to make sure I got two cards out of my 8 1/2 x 11 sheet of cardstock so in order to maximize my space, I used the fit to page function. I often use this when I want one image to be as big as possible on my card/layout but did you know you can use it for multiple images? So here's what you do...

I often use this when I want one image to be as big as possible on my card/layout but did you know you can use it for multiple images? So here's what you do...
1. Move your blade over to the top corner of your cardstock and press the set paper size button.
2. Press the cut that you want (in this case the sheep card base). As many times as you want out of that sheet. (in this case 2)
3. Your screen should look like this: (sheep)(sheep).
4. Make sure your fit to page button is on
5. Cut away! Your cricut will determine and cut the largest size possible for the two card bases on your sheet. I love this for not wasting cardstock.
Hope that helps someone and have a great weekend!

Thanks for that tip!
