Cricut Cardz Challenge # 115

Are you ready for another challenge? This week for the Cricut Cardz Challenge, Mary has a super cute challenge for you all.

Cricut Cardz Challenge #115: "Critter Cuties" Make a card using a "critter" (dog, cat, cow, chicken, duck, horse, etc) from any cartridge(s), and using any colors or theme you would like.

For my card I used the Create a Critter cartridge, which is a no-brainier, LOL. I cut the duck from page 31 at 3" and she is on an ACTION WOBBLE.

The sentiment is from CardzTV Stamps "For the Birds", which you can purchase here.

So now for some inspiration come check out all of our design team projects at http://cardztv.blogspot.com

You have until August 28, 2012 at midnight to post your card to Mr Linky for a chance to win a free set of Mary's stamps. Good Luck!!

Happy Scrappin'
