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 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!

I made the first box like this for my ornament from the cover of the 2012 Holiday Catalog.  How perfectly glamorous!  I wanted to use the Labels Collection Framelit to cut the middle of the box top, but the card stock didn’t fit through the Big Show without folding it.  I decided to see what happened and I thought the results were wonderful!  Love it!
