Feeling Sentimental Card 2-9-13

Feeling-Sentimental card 2-9-13

I tried the Chalkboard technique for these cards.  Instead of black we used Midnight Muse.  I think the sentimental look works well with the chalkboard.  I’m wondering if it would work better on black, but I like it this way too.  The one on the left was done without a Big Shot.

 

Step it up with Window Frame Framelits and texture with the Square Lattice Embossing Folder.

Did you know you can use Embossing Powder on metal?  I bought inexpensive mail boxes from Target.  We embossed and added a bit of ribbon and punches.   I saw how to punch an arrow with the tag punch.  Who thought of that?  I wish I knew!  The mail box is ready for valentines.  Be mine!

This project was CASE’d too.  Nope.  I don’t know who started it, but I’m glad they did.  If it was you, let me know and I’ll be happy to give you credit.  This was so incredibly easy and so fabulous, it’s hard to believe.  Buy a roll of aluminum flashing at your hardware store.  Don’t be tempted by the metal shingles even though they’re just the right size.  They’re too thick.

This was certainly not my original design but I’ve seen it so many places that I couldn’t begin to identify the person to credit for it.  I know why it’s so popular though.  It’s so easy and so very cute!  Great for neighbors, kids’ classmates, or co-workers.  Merry Christmas!
