For You Cards

I made this card for my mother-in-law and stepmother-in-law to accompany a scarf that my mum made for them. The cards were the same and they looked fantastic. I used some of the Stampin Up papers that I bought (I think they are from the Mini Catalogue). The cards looked fantastic (see for yourselves!!!). The colours are vibrant and as per all Stampin Up papers complement each other really well.

What I did: I used a pre-made white card that I trimmed a little. Then I chose 4 of the Stampin Up papers and cut squares of 1 1/2" each. The I glued them in mosaic format. I put a black ribbon though them joining in at the front (i put tape at the front to hold it in place). I used my large oval punch on one the Stampin Up papers again. They I use my new scallop oval punch on black card stock. Used my white gel pen and wrote the message with faux stitching and because I couldn't read it very well, I used a black marker and put dots on top.

The end result! Another card that I'm proud off.

PS. This is the first time that I have used the Stampin Up papers to create something on my own and i have to say that I LOVE THEM. And the response of the recipients was great too. Love it when people appreciate what I do with my cards. It gives me a great feeling.
