Birthday cards with the Chomas Creations mini gel pen holder

Here are a bunch of cards I  made with the Chomas Creations mini gel pen holder.  By adding a bunch of different tags to draw out, then adding another layer to cut them, I made a ton of tags in no time, with very minimal work!

You can get the file for this design to use with Lyrical Letters here... birthday page
I start with the page to draw and add the Chomas Creations mini gel pen holder to the Cricut machine and draw the birthday sentiments.
Then without removing the mat from the machine, I carefully remove the Chomas Creations mini gel pen holder and add the blade and cut the next page.  Notice the square around the bracket shapes.  It was easier for me to just leave them, and they don't get in the way.  Sometimes easy is good!
You are left with 12 birthday sentiments to add to cards!  While these were drawing, I was working on adding paper and ribbon to all my cards!  This was quite a quick way to get that many cards done!
I had a bunch of birthday decorations that I added to these cards.

Thanks for sharing, Amy. I am going to use my gel pens to make my friend's daughter a birthday card. I will give her the card with her gift- a brand new gel pen holder and glitter gel pens for her cricut!
