I am working on cards for my family's special occasions!! An anniversary card for my sister!!
I started with a large blue envelope and made a blue card to fit inside. I layered on a piece of beautiful gift wrap that coordinated nicely. Digging through my stash looking for a white heart shaped paper doily I found this wonderful embossed gift wrap and decided to use it instead. I cut one panel from the piece which was saved off of a gift a while back and layered it with the same cardstock as the card. I glued it on my card front using glue stick. I added a length of coordinating vintage seam binding overlapping my little square and a bit offset. I added two heart punchies (SU) from my stash in silver and one stamped one (SU) in a delicate dot pattern. I mounted them over the square using 3D foam tape. The greeting (Bird's Cards) was laser printed and them punched with the large oval punch (SU). I sponged the edges to coordinate before mounting it below the square with 3D foam tape. It still needed a bit of something to I tied a short length of seam binding to the one on the card using a single knot. Nicely simulates a bow and was just what this card needed to finish it off!! It is off to my sister and her DH in today's mail!!!!! Therese
