Just for Fun

Happy Sunday everyone! Today is our son's 14th birthday! How did we celebrate? He played his Halo game all day and I've been crafty. Poor sweet hubby has been at work for like almost 2 days straight.

Anyhooo....here's a fun little "library card" I put together this afternoon for a Cricut challenge. I've been wanting to make this since I got the Sentimentals cartridge a couple months ago.

I made this with my dear daughter in mind. She LOVES books and ink pots. I know it's a little over the top for a library card, but oh well, I love it! Just so happens the back side of the pink and black diamond paper had a little library book tag, how cool was that?! All the cuts are from Sentimental. The library card pocket originally had a fleur-de-lis cut out on it, I hid that in Design Studio and cut out the ink pot separately. 

Thanks for looking!
