Card Day With Bree!

I'm super excited to share these projects with you today!

Here's a Valentine Card,

It's a little ahead of schedule.

It was easy to turn wintery papers into a Love note,

with just a touch of red cardstock and a little glitter.

And instead of putting the card IN the envelope,

I turned the envelope into an embellishment on the front of the card.

You could sneak a love letter, a treat, or gift card

into the envelope if you wanted!

And here's my 2nd card

Hello Sunshine,

again i used the envelope on the front of the card, i really loved the way it looks.

This card reminds me of Grandma's garden,

And could be used for any occasion!

And instead of a third card, I made this little frame.

I used a dollar store frame.

It was dark brown, so I lightly sanded it

and added a couple of layers of acrylic paint on top.

After it dried i sanded some of the edges off to give it a chippy look.

I then used the matte that came with the frame as a base

and covered it with cardstock and patterned paper.

I layered some Prima Leaves, Prima pebbles, Webster's pages button, and a flower.

I added stickers to the journalling card to make the title,

and popped it with foam adhesive.

A giant bow, and voila,

a simply shabby chic little frame!

Don't forget to visit on the 12th and 24th of each month
