Learn how to make a waterfall card with a Cricut!
Ready to add movement to your cardmaking? My new free waterfall card design is sure to brighten anyone's day! It's easy to cut with a cutting machine (even a Cricut Joy!) and is totally customizable with different cardstock. There's even an included envelope, so you can make and mail it the same day! You can add a special message on the front or back of the clouds, or inside the card. I chose a rainbow theme, but once you have the steps down, you can customize your own cards using other shapes, too!
