I love making cards and have some cute sizzix templates...like the one above which is of the flip flop...I use a pre-printed card and some hot pink scrapbook paper, some printed birthday scrapbook paper, big pink flowers, buttons, and fiber....out of all that I got these cute flip flops to add to my card....thought it turned out pretty cute....
I love using the pre-printed card I get at Michaels..using a 40% off coupon and they cost about $4.50 for 50 cards and envelopes. I add to that close to cocoa (Stampin-up paper) cut in a circle, added lavender ribbon at the top and lavender eyelets, sptamped "It's your special day" and added a strip of the close to cocoa paper, three more lavender eyelets and oh yes, 2 paper flowers one cream and the other brown and the lavender eyelet... another card ready to send out.
All these card are from the same box of cards I got at Michaels...I like variety and these card are great for the background card...I used the left over close to cocoa paper and added pink eyelets and two different pink flowers...simple and fast to make...I am linking up to

ReplyDeleteThank you for linking to the Boardwalk Bragfest. I don't see a link back to the party though. Please review the rules and try again.
ReplyDeleteLois, those are darling! I love the fact that you make your own cards. Such a wonderful personalized touch. I've looked and looked at them trying to pick out my favorite, but I can't choose, though I really do love the sheer ribbon and the color combination of the "It's your special day". I also am impressed with the grommets you've used. You are a very talented lady, Lois, and I'm so glad you linked to the boardwalk Bragfest.
