The Letter of the Day Is E!


Every Monday at My Cricut Craft Room there is a "Letter of the Day" segment where design team members create a project using a Cricut featuring something that starts with the letter of the day. Today's letter is 'E' and what better to represent 'E' than an elephant?!



I cut the elephant from the Create a Critter cartridge at 2.5" and created some handmade flowers with a flower punch, tacky glue, and buttons. I punched the 1" flowers out of yellow cardstock and layered them on top of one another while folding the petals in towards the center to give them a layered look, and used buttons for the centers. I don't make handmade flowers too often because it can be pretty time-consuming but they do add such a great touch to a card!

Stop by My Cricut Craft Room to see what other 'Letter E' projects the design team has made!

Thanks for stopping by!
