Hi there everyone. Hope you had a great Valentine’s Day!

So, it seems like wrapping cards are all the age at the moment… so I decided to give it a try – with my very personal spin, of course!

While I don’t have a “wrap” per se, I find that the paper doily sizzlit does a fantastic job as a wrap – and it’s a good thing, because I can choose how many I use – and find that 4 are too much… Two seems elegant and do the “wrapping” job, so two it is.

I chose to make the band translucent with vellum card stock and the oh so very lovely pool party seam binding ribbon that gives it an elegant and timeless look…

Inside, I used the DSP from the current Sale-A-bration, coordinating pool party ruffled ribbon and brad…

for the card I wanted, the For Everything stamp set had the perfect image and message…

a little crystal effect and my butterfly has a charming glow while it flutters away…

This DSP was screaming at me for an acetate card to show off its features. the trick with acetate cards is to make sure you don’t show any construction detail… so, with a ribbon and a couple of punched hearts, you are able to do just [...]

12 February 2012 2012

why is that when you have to make a card it seems like all your creativity just goes on vacation? I had to make a birthday card for a boy today and had to have it ready soon. Knowing I could not use hearts, balloons or anything of the kind, I came up with numbers [...]
