A New Begging

I decided to take the left over papers from yesterday and make another card.  The girl I will be giving this to did not pass her exams on the first try.  It broke her heart. 

I used the same carts again too!  I used Elegant Edges for the mats.  It's absolutely the perfect cartridge for that!  I used Give a Hoot for the owl.  It's fun to use carts you haven't used in awhile! 

I flipped some of the papers over and you are now seeing the side B of them.  Instead of cutting out more zigzags, I used the cut out portion from the ones I just made and used it as a mask and smooshed distress ink through them.  Same twine and another sticker from the same K&Co. package.

I don't think I have ever done this type of thing before.  It went quite quickly.  I may have to do this more often!

Today looks so much brighter!  Crafting really is good for the soul!

Thanks for stopping by!

  4. What a sweet card! It is so thoughtful. The red on your mats make everything - the owl, butterfly, sentiment- just pop. TFS
