"Baby Arrival" Card

Hey Everyone!

I dusted off my Cricut and got to work on a card for the ICRC7. They are looking for a card that features creatures that are big and small...I used a stork and butterflies.

Here is my entry:

I haven't been using my Cricut much, and I do miss it. I think I'll be able to use up a lot of my scrap cardstock with the Cricut...sounds like a plan
