Fix It Friday-Sealed with Love

One of the make n takes we made at OnStage in Madison,Wisconsin last November was this cute gift card.  I used a lot of the new items from the Occasions catalog.  At home using my Envelope Punch board, I made a matching envelope.

When thinking about Fix it Friday, I decided to try and take this cute design and turn it into a full sized card.

1. I enlarged the background paper so that is would fit on a full sized card.

2. I chose Crumb Cake for my card base because of the color of the accent piece on the card.

3. I added some Baker's Twine on the bottom of the card.  How did I get that twin around the fold of the card?  I punched a tiny hole in the fold and on the opposite edge so that the strands would be able to stay in place.

What a great week I had getting back into stamping and working with some products from the new catalog. 

 Next week I will be focusing on the Party Animal Suite.  I will use each item that is meant to coordinate. So, come back Monday to see what Miscellaneous idea I will come up with.

Have a great weekend and Happy Stamping!

Wednesday Wow-Sealed with Love

   My wow card today uses the Love Notes framelits that go along with the stamp set called Sealed with Love.  This bundle has oodles of options to make great cards.

I used the string of hearts on the edge of the card.  It is really great because the hearts are attached but on the left side are cut out so that I could slip the Sending Love designer paper underneath the left side of each heart.  Love that look.

I created a cute little envelope using the Love Notes framelit and some Whisper White card stock.  To make the accent piece on the top of the envelope I cut out just the top flap of the framelit.

The doily is found in the new Occasions catalog and is  Vanilla on one side and White on the other.

My husband liked this WOW card and said he may take it from my card box and give it to me for Valentine's Day.

Come back tomorrow to see a template made several different ways for Valentine's Day.
