Away I spring with a tireless wing,
On a feathery cloud I poise and swing;
I dart down the steep where the lightnings leap,
And the clear blue canopy swiftly sweep;
For, dear to me is the revelry
Of a free and fearless Liberty.
On a feathery cloud I poise and swing;
I dart down the steep where the lightnings leap,
And the clear blue canopy swiftly sweep;
For, dear to me is the revelry

The boys went out driving yesterday and came upon three eagles perched in a tree. Nothing makes me think more about the freedom that I have than seeing the regal bald eagle roam about.
Anywho, a quick card to share for my entry into the Moxie Fab World's Cool Tools Week Die Cutting Challenge. I thought that I'd dare using the Cricut and make use of the electronic sizing and border option of to my advantage as well as working with a monochromatic color scheme and threw in a pun for good measure. (The sentiment and faces were computer generated.) I say "dare" using it because sometimes it shoots sparks.

seeing bald eagles on the bald dragonfly!!! :) awesome photos and the card with speech bubble is a genius idea!
Great photo- it must have been amazing to see. I saw an eagle once when I lived in TX and another time in NJ. It was quite something. Fabulous card too- a lot of fun! And I thought MY Cricut had issues because it takes about a minute to jiggle the power button around to find the right angle that it'll turn on or off to! Sheesh!
Super cute card Karen! Love those sweet little smiley faces!
Thanks for sharing the eagle photos, they look so awesome!
love this, karen:) and how cool are the eagles?!

What fabulous pictures, Karen! I would always get excited when we were in the US and would see hawks or eagles soaring around. They're so beautiful!

Karen, this is SO fabulous! I hope you will use your Cricut more but what do you mean it shoots sparks? That's kind of frightening. Maybe you need an upgrade if you are making amazing cards like this one with it!
