ANYTHING GOES /sentiment on front


Our sponsor is Dis digi stamps


Since we don't get images for this challenge we got to use what we wanted. I am showing the third card I made (other two were posted on another dt blog challenge). The products are all Stampin up.. You take 3 or 4 designer papers that are A2 size and stack them, then you cut them and you end up having these images to create cards. If you used double sided dp you have more options of design. I love the fun images and easy fun cards.

BOX CARD


Crafty ribbons

So I have never made one of these before so this was fun to watch U-tube and find one that Sandi MacIver had done that folds up to an A2 size. so it fits the standard !2 envelopes. 
I used some scraps of papers I had. Lil inker dies, Spellbinder dies, Pretty Pink Posh dies My Favorite Things dies, Stampin up punch (to create the candles cutting the banner in half) and Mama Elephant.  I used markers to give color to the balloons. I am looking forward to making the reminder box card for the 15th. This was fun. 


This is the back where the greeting will go.
