I went to Michael's Monday to get the yarn for Donna's scarf. While I was there I checked out the Studio G bins. I love all that $1 stuff. I found several packs of note cards (one pictured below. I thought the embossing on this one was really nice.
I've been wanting to make a card set for a friend as a thank you for helping me. I decided this set of cards would make a nice one. So I started. I knew I would need labels, so I turned on my trusty Cameo and looked for a file I could use on these. The one I chose is Stacked Label Set by Sophie Gallo-Design ID#40619. It is a multi-layered label but I separated it and only used 2, one for the wording and a larger one for the shadow. I made a pageful of each phrase to have some on hand in the future. I used a font on my computer for the wording.
Here are pictures of the finished cards. I attempted to color the embossing on one of them but I don't really like the way it turned out. I used ribbon, trim and gems I had on hand to complete them. Super simple cards but I like how they turned out. I hope my friend will like them.
Thank you for stopping by today. I hope you're staying warm. I'm getting cabin fever from being iced in. God Bless You!!! Peggy
What an awesome idea! Your cards are beautiful!!!!
ReplyDeleteI agree what a great idea. I was just at Michael's today and never thought to look for something like that. I am sure your friend will like them. I also can't wait for warmer weather. This the worst winter we had in 3 years. i guess we got a little spoiled.
