You Are a Gift // Card Creations
August 22, 2017
Hey there crafty folks! It's time for another card creation share! It's another simple and easy card today. We all know that I have way too many pocket page cards and this is an easy way to use some of them up! I simple picked out one with a nice sentiment and made it the focus of my card. Grab your pocket page card stash and get ready to make some fun and easy cards!
I started my card by picking out the sentiment I wanted to use. This pocket page card is from Recollections which can be found at Michaels. This is a great sentiment because it can be used for a variety of occasions or as a just because card. I paired this card with a fun x and o background from Pebbles. I thought this was a great way to use up a Valentine's themed paper without it being too themed. To dress up the card more I layered a doily behind the sentiment.
Just using a doily behind the pocket page card added more focus, but it wasn't enough for my taste. I wanted more color and texture on this card. I grabbed some teal embroidery thread that coordinated with the sentiment card. I originally wanted to tuck it under the piece in a circular form like I normally would, but I want the more traditional method by wrapping it around the card front.
To add some final touches on this card I used some silver pearls from Recollections. Lastly, I added a small red paper clip to help keep the interest towards the sentiment. Although this card is simple, it is a great way to use some of those extra Project Life/pocket page cards that are in your stash. I hope you enjoyed. Thanks for stopping by!
