The original version of my card was made for this color challenge. I used “Joyful Nativity” and “Totally Trees” with a bit of designer paper from the Presents & Pinecones collection. For fun, I also made a Night of Navy version. I was pretty sure I would like the design … Continue reading
I have been making these note card folders all summer with various papers after I saw the idea on Rachel Tessman’s blog. We made this version in club last month. These little totes open to reveal a pocket for note cards and envelopes. We used papers from the Floral Boutique … Continue reading
I don’t use Washi Tape enough, and that is a shame because look at how easy it makes a background. You can add coordinating color and pattern in no time! This Washi Tape, enamel dots, twine, and the paper I used for the moon are from the Halloween Night collection … Continue reading
