All occasion card with a 4" x4" photo, a decorative paper background and a strip embellished with eyelets and ribbon

 I have been making more cards with photos which I have trimmed off photo calendars my sister has give me as Christmas gifts over the last few years.  The photos are wonderful and I am so glad to give them another life!!   I started with a large purple card that fit inside a large envelope from my stash.  I trimmed a decorative paper background that coordinated with my photo.  I adhered several purple strips of cardstock to each other, added a short piece of green ribbon and adhered it to my backgound.  Once in place I added three little eyelets on the left hand side before adhering this large element to my card front.  I ran my pattern tracing wheel on all four sides of my photo (4" x4 ") and then adhered it to my card front using 3D foam tape.    Therese
