The first project at the top of the post is for my Anna Griffin planner. Anna's planner page for March came with the foil gold butterflies but I wanted to add the radial details. So, I used a sun image from the Cricut Close to My Heart Art Booking cartridge. I created circles 1/2" bigger and centered them all around the central sun in the CMTH image and converted them all to pen images. I then put my Anna Griffin butterfly paper on my Cricut mat and let my Design Space and markers do there magic. Can you see the gold lines, made with the Cricut pen in the photo above? I am circle obsessed! I cut the chevrons by hand and added a few Anna Griffin butter fly dies from her card kits and the dark blue butterfly is cut with an AG die. The flowers are also Anna Griffin and made with the print and cut feature to be the perfect size for my page. I often, use the Design space to layout my page before I cut or draw anything!
For the second project (pictured above), I wanted a lace look in tone on tone, and used Anna's Lace Cards and Embellishment cards cart for the blue lace. Once it was drawn I added some hand doodling inside the lace to look a bit like engraving details and fussy cut the lace piece out, and colored some of the details with a silver Cricut pen to get the look of silver findings and add dimension. I love how the details of Anna Griffin's lace pop now!
