Welcome to my Blog. I have a bit of a squirrel mentality. I love to be creative, but I do tend to get distracted easily. Although this blog focuses mainly on paper crafts, I am also the proud owner of Shirley's Flowers and Friends in Beautiful Three Hills, AB. I hope my posts, inspire you to be more creative, and bring a smile to your face. And if you're ever in rural Alberta stop in at the shop.

I know I say this every time, but
It is very important to remove the protective film from both sides of the card before you adhere anything.
Adhere the 5 1/2 strip to the inside (outside edge) of the card as shown.
(Note if you dont want the adhesive to show, adhere the mat to the back of the card and then adhere the patterned paper on the inside)
| From Dec 12a, 2011 |
adhere the sentiment to the inside of the card as shown
| From Dec 12a, 2011 |
Final Step
Close card, adhere image to front of card.
(center it over the mat on the inside)
| From Dec 12a, 2011 |
View of the card open.
I appologize for the poor picture quality, but my editing software was giving me grief, so I quit fighting with it and just posted the pic as is.

I used the same recipe for this card as I did in the Card Challenge #11
However, I used the
Elemental paper X7141B
Snow Flurries D1384
and cut the snowflake #1 (p.23) @ 2" and 1 1/2"
I also added some sparkles to it

(ignore the scribbles in the corner of the photo)
| From Dec 10, 2011 |
Very, very important....remove protective film
from inside and out of the clear card.
attach the solid colored cardstock to back of card
(about 1/2" from side)
| From Dec 10, 2011 |

Okay,
now find that 1" strip of patterned paper that you put aside, mat in on the cocoa
and adhere it to the front of the card.
(note, if you want to hide your adhesive, adhere the cocoa to the inside of the front cover and then adhere the striped piece to the front)
