Artfully Sent Scrapbooking p. 49
I must confess I am more of a scrapbooker than a cardmaker. The Pocket Card function key has a lot of ideas for scrapbooking. I used the Thursday Friday card in this layout that I call a week in Paradise. THursday pocket card can accomodate a 4 x5 picture and Friday a 4x4.
Artfully Sent p.49 part two christmas/winter theme
Top card push the sleve function key cut at 5 1/2 they will fit a regular card. This card forms a envelope that opens on the top. I added a tab to make it easy to pull out the card.

Artfully sent Christmas/Winter Themed key p. 49 Part one
Top card is a scene card. Each scene card has a sentiment. I backed the sentiment with shimmer tape and a little bit of bling. I cut this card at 7 inches but they also work great at 51/2. There is an envelope with this key and a coordinating liner.. This one is cut at 5 inches which fit the 5x7 card perfectly, tomorrow I will cut one at 4 1/4. The envelopes work best if you cut them out of the lightweight paper. The snowman card was actually cut from a level one aspen kit. It worked great because the white gave a base for the snowman. Last card is a sentiment card I added shimmer tape and backed it with yuletide paper. Super fast card and elegant. I cut it at 5 1/2 so it will fit a regular envelope.
Artfully Sent -Wow 3 more cards from the J key p.27

Artfully Sent Sleeve Cards -Buzz and Bumble
Another type of card on this cartridge is called a sleeve card. The top card opens like a normal card the pattern of the cut out reminded me of a beehive so I broke out my retired Buzz and Bumble paper. The bottom card closes on the side and bottom leaving only the top open so I made a pocket for a gift card . I added a tab so it could easily be pulled out. Both these cards are on page 27. I cut both cards at 5 1/2 so they can be sent standard mail. Top card is sleeve (j) shift, bottom card is sleeve (j)
Artfully Sent Cricut Cartridge Challenge
I watched the Julia Childs movie how she made a every recipe in the book and then blogged about it. Well I am attempting to do the same, except everyone knows I no longer cook so. I am attempting to use every function and every key on the Artfully Sent Cricut Cartridge 700 icons in all. So below are two of my first attempts. If you would like to join. Post your project the page and the function you have used. Example the Card below is on page 27 (j) (shift) sentiment it is cut at 4.25 and it makes a 5x7 card.
Artfully Sent (j-key cards) It Super hero Sentiment Card
This card is made with the (j) key page 27. It is a 5x7 card . It look rather plain on the outside so I added the star and silver shimmer tape. This is a fast card. I lined the card with contrasting paper. and used the extra cut out for the inside of the card. Can be made in less than 10 minutes.
Super Hero Pop up Card
- Super Hero Pop up Card/ Artfully Sent Cricut Cartridge p. 27 (j) Each key has a pop up card (50 in all) This pop-up card was plain on the outside so I cut the card with the sentiment function (j key) They lined up perfectly. This is a 5x7 card if you prefer 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 just set the dial for 5 1/2. I lined the sentiment with metalic paper I found at a garage sale and some silver shimmer tape. The inside of the card is the popup (top picture) I cut out icon (Happy Birthday and his cape says super hero.
