We're On a Roll Card

Today was my 31st wedding anniversary, so I needed to make a card for my hubby. We recently went roller skating with our kids, and he commented how he would love to have his own skates since the rental ones at the rink were so uncomfortable. His comment must have stuck in my mind, because the idea of creating a skating card sprang to mind last night. The only skating cut file I own says "Let's roll," so I had to purchase a new file to use in Cricut Design Space, but it's really cute and easy to assemble, so I think I'm going to get a lot of mileage out of it - pun intended!

Recipe:
Friendship Alphabet Small stamp set
Stargazer & May/June 2022 Mix-In papers
Ruby, Pebble, Charcoal, Black & White Daisy cardstock
Ruby & Black Ink
Cricut Design Space: Layered Perfect Party Icons
Pattern: Sketch-n-Scrap Card Sketch #233

Challenges: Allsorts #710 Something New (Cricut roller skate cut file); Crafting Happiness #138 Celebrations; Let's Craft & Create #191 Anything Goes with optional black & white (I also added some red)
