a card-a-day {#3}






I took a break to enjoy family time this weekend; that is what I love most about the end of a week... but the new week has begun and I am back at it :) Thanks so much for all of the nice comments on my cards so far, Becky's kit makes it easy to come up with cute stuff! I really ventured away from the original design on this card and did a little bit of dissecting LOL . Sometimes I just enjoy cutting stuff up and turning it around to make it into something new. For this one I cut out the word strips to make a "tree". I tore off the end piece for a bit of a layered torn textury end. Then crinkled/folded two of the enclosed blue strips over the one printed on the front of the card and coiled some wire around it. Simple but happy and fun :)

This card is a great idea - texture of blue strip/wire is great, tree idea is great, snow is great. And all easy. Tx!

Your cards are so cute!
I just wanted to say that I absolutely adored your class in Paris. I loved that you shared so much of yourself and that you spoke from the heart. You're a true inspiration! :)

Yum-o! LOVE the wire, and the "tree" is brilliant! "It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...."

Girl!! This is sooo you!! Great combination of elements and texture. Do you just use brown paper bag for the torn edge? I love the snow!! I may need to steal a little of this idea for tomorrow's card.

Fabulous CD!!
