I decided I liked the kite card I made for one of the challenges over at My Pink Stamper on National Scrapbook Day that I would make a set of them and a box to keep them in today.
For the sake of "assembly lining" them (is that proper English?), I did tweek the recipe just a tad.
Below is a picture of the original I did for the challenge. I like the look of the torn paper, but honestly didn't want to tear all that paper for a box of cards today. So I let the Cricut tear / cut my paper for me. ;)
Card bases bright blue and lavender from Value pack pre-scored for easy folding!
Ribbon from Joann's (and this was the last of this spool - so sad, I LOVED this ribbon!)
Pattern papers from DCWV Flower Shower Spring Stack
Solid papers from Recollections
Scotch Photo Splits & Zig 2-Way Glue Pen
