Hi, this is Joy and it has been an exciting week here at Christmas with the Cricut! We have been rushing about, making live streams and videos and learning the Gypsy and creating projects! I think I need a vacation! Ha, ha!
Today's 5.5" x 5.5" card was made using the Cosmo Cricket line, Jolly by Golly, this week's patterned paper sponsor. Melanie showed you the paper pack that will be given away this week in her product review - SO CUTE! My cardstock was of course, Core'dinations and I embossed it using the Cuttlebug Snow Dots and Swiss Dots folders, then lightly sanded it to reveal the lighter colors beneath. Now, for the shaped section, often called Top Note by scrapbookers....that shape is found on the new Gypsy Wanderings cartridge, which is bundled into the Gypsy and not sold by stand alone cartridge at this time. It is fantastic! The little bird came from Gypsy Font, another bundled cartridge. See the bottom of the post for a link to those cartridge handbooks because there are some really great images on these two cartridges. The striped paper is cut at 5.25" x 1.5" and the solid green is embossed and cut at 5.5" x 2". Mini-brads were using in the corner and the whole shaped section was pop dotted.
Finally, the word art and bird were made using the Gypsy and the weld feature. The font for "Joy to the world" is from Don Juan (now available on the Cricut Rewards section). I made a video below detailing how to weld using the Gypsy - it is really easy!
To see how to work with the Core'dinations paper, see THIS POST by Melanie! She shows lots of ways to play with this cardstock!

What a great looking card Joy ... I am totally loving that paper, such beautiful pattern designs. That Gypsy font and image carts look like they are great ones! Thanx for the Gypsy Welding Tut too! That's going to come in handy as I begin to play with a Gypsy too! Ü

Wonderful card!
I really like this card. The paper is really cute.
This card is just so cheery and would brighten anyones day. Great job
Okay now you make me want my Gypsy to hurry up and get here. Can't wait. I love the video!
I am really liking seeing the inside of the card to. So often cards are made on different videos and it looks great and then nothing for the inside. I don't mean what you wrote to someone, but a little decorating in there to. Thanks for alllllll the great stuff you are sharing.

Yet another great card, I love the sanding over the embossing. The paper really makes the card. Thanks ladies, great job!
Love it, thank you!
wonderful card. and thanks for the gypsy video.
Super cute card! I love the embossed and sanding elements too!
This card is just gorgeous! I love the 'non traditional' colors of the collection. Thanx so much for the Gypsy videos. I feel we will all be experts with your help before it even comes out! TFS!
great card - like the sanding on your embossing - looks good.
love the card but not totally convinced about the Gypsy. For the money it costs- I just not sure it is worth it. I'll keep watching though. A girl can always change her mind.

Joy thanks for the video on cutting with Gypsy. I have a question for you. When the news 1st came out about the G someone said that if one person bought the G and downloaded their carts to it then a friend could use her carts because she would already have them in her G. Well on your video you said you had to have the cart to cut. It sounds like PC is making it so you can't do that. Did I ask the question properly? Please respond. jeansaporito@yahoo.com
Another beautiful card of course!! I want to thank you for showing more for the Gypsy...if I can watch how to use it I may want it even more!!
Amy V
Your cards just keep getting prettier and prettier. Thanks.

SINCE some of us don't have the Gypsy...You should cut all of these wonderful shapes for us(we don't mind embossing and sanding) then we can do this exact card:)
(joking). Thanks for all that you three ladies do.
This card is great I love the paper. It makes me happy! The Gypsy looks like an amazing tool. It looks like it will do so much. Hmmmm....where is the "do the dishes button?"

Love the card. You ladies are enabling me. I need more products: coorediations paper, cosmo cricket paper, cuttlebug and folders, new cricut cartridges, etc. the list is endless.
Welding is such an useful application to use. I need the Gypsy. Wonderful creations.
I want a Gypsy to make this card
:(. Great cart, paper, folders, and love the videos. Thanks Dianne

Love the card and the gypsy even more! That looks very fun!!
What a cute card! My sister and I are in the process of designing our Christmas cards (we both just got Expressions machines) and I sure wish I had a Gypsy to make things easier. I have ordered the Design Studio and I'm looking forward to playing with that. This is my first post on these boards but I have been following a few of them for a while. I love seeing all the beautiful projects everyone is creating and since Christmas is my fave holiday, this thread is the one for me!
