I used Jumpstart Designs' Zoofari Elements #2 for this triple stepper card. Her jungle elements are so, so cute. The card base was designed by Sam Calcott at Mixed Up Craft.

 
It turned out very nicely. How many hours did the work take? Is this craft for a child going to school or is it just a hobby? What other jobs are there of the same kind? I'd love to see some more interesting crafts!
 
Nellie, I make cards for a hobby using a Cricut die cutter. I design it in Cricut Design Space, then cut the card and elements and lastly fold and glue it. There are many cardmakers with blogs and tutorials. This one I found at MixedUpCraft.com. Thank you for your nice comment.
 
Thanks for the info. I will look and familiarize myself with the site in more detail. Because the work is really really cool! Moreover, now handmade is in trend.
 
@becktrurn I adore your card! I also have a cricut where I make cards. How do you cut out your digital images?

Route66, sorry I didn't see your question earlier. I upload the images in Design Space and size to fit my card. Then I use Cricut's Print and Cut. It sure beats stamping and fussy cutting! Some images have intricate edges that are hard to cut so I add a white border in Paintshop Pro first. I love combining my digital scrapbook supplies with card making and it's so easy with Cricut.

I bought a new Cricut after seeing your card... and I am SO SO glad I did. You have opened up a whole new world for me. :) I am glad I have more information on how you made the base though :)
 
I'm so glad you are happy with your new Cricut. I love digital scrapping but sometimes just like to get my hands dirty. I'm not sure if you are asking for more info on how to make the base. I used Sam Calcott's measurements to create a Design Space project. stepper cards – Mixed Up Craft. It's basically just creating rectangles and fold lines. There is also a Facebook group called Cricut Explore, Maker and More. They have card designs in their community files for download.
