🎀 Why Card Toppers?
Card toppers are a game-changer in card making. They're versatile, time-saving, and allow you to pre-assemble beautiful focal points that can be added to any blank card base in minutes. I love creating a batch of them to keep on hand for last-minute cards, or to mix and match when inspiration strikes.

Cut Your Layers
Use your Cricut to cut each piece with precision. I recommend using a mix of foil, textured, and smooth cardstock for a rich layered effect. -

Use foam adhesive to layer each piece, giving your topper depth and a 3D look. Add sentiments or decorative die-cuts on top. -

No Anna Griffin project is complete without one of her signature bows. Add one to the corner or center of your topper to instantly elevate the whole piece. -

Attach to a blank card base or store in a clear sleeve to use later. These toppers make excellent gifts for fellow crafters too!
