love your card. I finally used one of your new stamps on a card and love them. They are just the right size as you can see on the orange card you just made. Keep up the great work!

Great idea. We give a lot of gift certificate and checks as gifts and this will be so much nicer than folding them in a regular card.

Monica said...

Hi Robin, I love this new orange card! The size is great!

Great card Robyn!!! I didn't think I really wanted this cart but after seeing your "sweet" creation I think I do want it. Thanks for sharing and for enabling :)

Denise-Scrapmouse said...

What a great idea for future gifts of money or gift cards. And I love the half circle punch. I never would've thought of that. Thanks for sharing!

Hestia's Helper said...

I am still pretty new at this, but you make it look so easy!
Quick question not covered in the video: the green tool you use for cutting/scoring... what is it? I've been looking for a new one (the one I have is only 9" long and doesn't work on 12 x 12 paper... what trimmer do you use or recommend?

Thanks.

Love, love, love this card. It is a great all around card. You could use it for any occasion. And the border punch is adorable. Can't wait to get this cartridge. Thanks for sharing your talent with others.

Yummy card!!!

Sheila said...

Hi Robyn. Love the card and especially the fact that it will hold a check and not just a gift card - how cool! TFS!

khattykathi said...

Robyn, I absolutely agree! This cart looks so cool and I can see loads of possibilities!

LiveLaughScrap said...

Robyn,
As usual I love it. I so need to get that SU punch. I have been eyeing it for such a long time.
Lori

texaslady said...

I loved the idea of the punch to hold the ck in.....I will be using that one.
Thanks for sharing

The Happy Stamper :) said...

Perfect card for all the up coming Graduations & Weddings! Super cute & TFS,
Gale The Happy Stamper :)

Lorus! said...

This is a great idea. I love the Preserves cart so far and cannot wait for it to become available! I don't have the punch you used at the end to hold the check, but I thought you could also leave the top of the apricot strip open and slide the check or cash into that.

eskiesmom said...

I love that card, Robyn. I will definitely be using that idea. It's great that it fits into a business size envelope. Sometimes I see really nice cards but then I don't have an envelope the right size.
Karen

Nicole said...

Super idea. Love it.

cindyh said...

That is a great idea, Robyn. I love that little punch! (and your card too, of course!)

jordanbev5 said...

Lovely card. TY Robyn.

Nancy said...

Can't wait to see all the new cartridges. I just bought a new Expressions, and want to get busy making new stuff with it. Thanks for all your ideas. Loved this "check" card, just in time for graduations.

mary said...

I wonder if you "earned" your free punch by buying all the "dimensionals" that you use? LOL! I also got that punch. Isn't it great to earn a "free" product? I Love your cards.

susan said...

Micki said...

I must have this cartridge after seeing this cute card! Thanks for your inspiration!

Doris BCB said...

This is a great idea for a check gift or a gift certificate, rather than a plan envelope!!
I'm enjoying your videos - great ideas and demonstrations! Just bought a Cricut Create for the craft corner!!

cfine said...

Very sweet card for the person getting the check! I was wondering how you knew how much to cut off on the bottom to make the border punch work. I love that look, but I would mess that up for sure!
