simple, little gift certificate holder.

and i mean SIMPLE! i just used an envelope, sealed it, used the scallop edge punch on the top, decorated with razzleberry lemonade designer paper, etc. and voila! i made these as a "thank you" for my club members.

hope you all had a great weekend!

card make-overs.

i decided to take 2 of my recent cards and "make them over" for a swap i was doing. i wanted them to be more "embellished" so this is what i came up with. the first is the "before."


and this is the "after" of this card. i added the circles to the top of the card, the black card stock behind the gray--to help it pop a bit, and the piercing that leads to the greeting. it just "fancied" it up a bit. still just used the 'circle circus' stamp set as well as 'teeny tiny wishes' from stampin' up!

this is the other card i "made-over." here is the "before."

here is the "after." added curry card stock to the left side of the flower piece & behind small flower in lower corner. added a rhinestone brad, and the adorable polka-dot ribbon (love, love the ribbon!).

anyway, just a few little things to add more detail to the cards. oh! and this card uses the 'for all you do' set from stampin up! thanks for looking! Ü
