Sweet treat

I get inspiration from everything I see.

The only problem is that I usually have a lot more ideas than I do time to make all of the projects I dream up.

Well, there I was surfing through fun craft blogs when I found a cool site last week called September Ninth.

They like Cricut cartredges AND svg's. That's rare to find these days :)

The Tacky Tuesday Challenge this week is "cool treat" with the word "sweet" on the front .

 It just so happened to have made a cut file for a popsicle that I have not gotten around to making yet...

... what better time than now...



When I first made this file, the shape bothered me because there was a spot that I welded that looked too flat on the card.

Now, that may not bother most people, but you know me and details...LOL

I put a seperate front piece on.

Not a big deal in the whole scheme of things, but it did make me feel better :)

Then I felt the pop needed some "pop"

(ha ha)

And then the "sweet"

Then I started thinking of an envelope. That led me to thinking of a wrapped popsicle...

I used vellum to make an envelope then put some corrugated vellum strips on the end.

The top flap folds down and the corrugated strips hold it in place.

I had fun with this :)

Here is the link to download the svg cut files and pdf templates and instructions.

There is also a popsicle card file without the bite mark. The instructions are the same for both cards.

You're sweet
