You guys probably know by now that I'm all about cards. I love making them because they are quick and easy. This week I'm going to show you a new card here on the blog every day. On Friday you can tell me which one was your favorite, and we'll have a little random giveaway just to keep it interesting.
On this card I layered different textured laces in different shades of cream. It was really easy to make. The paper is Pink Paislee's Butterfly Garden.
I used my new favorite tool, a button shank remover. I was amazed at how easy it took the back (shank) off the button so it would lay flush on my card. A while back I fell and injured my wrist, and I still have some wrist pain from it. I wasn't sure if I'd be able to use it, but it worked great.
Beautiful card Melissa. . .can't wait to see what is in store for the rest of the week!!!

that's the kind of card that needs to be matted and framed!
Well done, love it!
Cheers

If you and your offspring, which you chose to have, all get tickets then that's just fewer tickets for another family.
