Tri-Fold 'Thinking of You' Shutter Card

This card came about since I wanted to try another new fold - I'm really happy with the way this one turned out!

The Prima Fairy Rhymes A4 Pad papers I used were too pretty! If you like this card and want to give it a try, search Pinterest or Youtube for tutorials. The ones I saw made it with 12x12 papers, but I really wanted to use the papers I had so I adapted it to suit my needs!

As usual, I did some fussy cutting and the 'bling' I used were from Michaels $1.50 craft bins. I used Tim Holtz' Scattered Straw and Tea Dye distress inks for the edges, and as always I used Martha Stuart Score Board, Fiskers Paper Cutter, and Elmers quick dry craft bond glue - I can't do anything without them! I also made the envelope out of scrapbook paper with my We R Memory Keepers (a life saver!).

Card in a Box Project

These came about after I saw all the cute cards on Pinterest! I decided to try my hand at a spring themed card. I played with the size since I wanted a taller card. I made them out of cardstock, covered them in paper, used a few butterfly stamps, and fussy cut a lot of flowers! I couldn't have achieved the look I wanted without Graphic 45's Botanical Tea and Sweet Sentiments sets.

I also used a birthday stamp and a label dye for dimension. These were a lot of fun to make, and the girls I gave them to loved them! I can't wait to make some more. Click for larger images.
