Today I wanted to share with you a card I made using the "Circle Font" stamps! When I first saw them I knew what I wanted to make! I looked at the letter then noticed the numbers! First thing that came to mind was a vintage phone or retro phone! What ever they call it! The ones that if you didn't go all the way to the stop you had to start over again! Unfortunately I REMEMBER these phones! Just shows you how old I am! I miss these phones to be honest! Anyway I used my Cricut and my Gypsy! ! Yes ~ you heard me right! I chose the phone card from the Wild Card cartridge. I must admit this card is one BIG, BIG card! In order to adapt my number and circles it had to be!!! It fits in a 6x9 envelope ~. Huge right but I must say I love how this turned out! The new "Circle Font" stamps fit PERFECTLY in the circle die from the "Build A Banner Kit" stamp set. I used the "Scallop and Stitched Circle Dies" for my center. I didn't want to use the paper phone cord that they had. Good thing I remembered Debbie ( sweet and CLEVER friend) from Bugjuiced is MCT's Friday Tip gal! She had a tutorial about how to make twine or just about anything squiggly!! You can click here and here to see her tip! I LOVE how this turned out too! GREAT idea Debbie!!! It was easy too!! Oh there is another little sneak on this card too!! The will list the rest of my materials below.

So cute.. I have always wanted to make a card using this cut.. Just never could decide who to send it too..I guess I could just make one and someday the opportunity wuold arise for me to use it, I just may do that..I hope you had a wonderful weekend..
ReplyDeleteYou know I LOVE your phone card, Kim! This is just too cute, and the circle font is absolutely PERFECT for the numbers!!! I forgot about Debbie's curly twine tip - it turned out so great!!!
ReplyDeleteDid you just hear me squeal?? I mean...seriously...I squealed when I saw this card! This is THE most darling card! I am loving that pink telephone with all the amazing details you added - I don't even know where to begin! Oh my gosh - those cute, cute numbers, the fabulous twine, the fun sentiments, the bling...this card has it ALL! I Love this Kim!
ReplyDeleteO-M-G! Kim, this is the cutest freakin' card EVER! I'll bet Emma's jaw dropped when she saw what a fabulous job you did incorporating all of those dies and stamps into one AMAZING card! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this! How cool is that twine telephone cord!
ReplyDeleteYOU ARE AMAZING!!!! This card could not be more PERFECT. The numbers totally work perfectly on this card (and yes I remember that kind of phone too, my parents had one for YEARS). The curly twine for the cord is just the perfect accent. I LOVE this SO much!!!! Hugs- Glora

KIMBERLY!!!! I LOVE this card soooo much. I love those retro things and this phone couldn't be any cuter! You did such a perfect job my friend and the twine cord looks awesome! Thank you so much for mentioning me. I unfortunately remember these phones too and at least I am not saying or admitting to seeing one in maybe lets say avocado green or something...or was that just appliances! I believe they coordinated them right?! Well I love all you did to this card and you did a lot of work and it sure looks terrific!
ReplyDeleteBIG HUGS!!!
