Cricut Lite INSPIRED HEART: Three Wisemen Christmas Card

Photobucket



Hello Everyone!!  The masses have been begging for a religious content cartridge for some time now... well, here ya go.  Cricut Lite INSPIRED HEART has quite a variety of images.  I hope this is not the one and only religious cartridge they come out with, because I would love one that just had a whole row of gorgeous crosses on it.  In the meantime, this one has some very nice artwork.  I could really see this cartridge being used for church bulletin boards and signage.  INSPIRED HEART also had 50 welded words, such as Baptism, God's Word, He Is Risen, etc.


Photobucket

I chose the THREE WISEMEN image for a Christmas card.  My black card is 5"x7" and I matted the image four times.  My only embellishment is the silver thread stitching and a simple white satin bow.

My Hello Thursday teammates have been busy with the new cartridges too!

Nice card. I didn't think I liked this cart when I first saw it. They should use your card to advertise it.

Nice card. I don't quite understand some of the cartridges like this one that have something around the image so your card helped a bit.

Very pretty, I do like the three wise men.
I'm would like to know if the designs are all set in frames and that is the only way they can be used? Can you tell me about that Tammy?
Also does anyone know if only the new lite cartridges will be $20 on Friday or if they will all be on sale?

growing up i did not have a santa for the three wise men. We used to put fresh grass in a shoe box and water in a bowl for the camels, all these under my bed. We celebrate it on January 6.

Hi Tammy!
Your card is beautiful! Finally a religious cart. I used the star card from Joys of the Season for 1st Communion cards. Trying desperately to find a local Walmart that carries Cricut products. I was really hoping to get some of the new Lites(incl this one) on BF. I don't think you can order them online for the $20 sale price&my Walmart doesn't carry Cricut ANYTHING any more! Can't wait 'til tomorrow for the "winners"--hope I'm one of them!!

While I like the card you made, Tammy, I am a bit disappointed by the images for this cart. I'm not drawn to it at all. I am one of those who has been waiting a long time for this.
