Special Day


Hey there! Well, today's not a special day, but that's what this card says! It was a simple card put together with embossing templates and punches only! Yep, you read that right - only embossing templates and punches! It's Hump Day! I hope you all enjoy your day! We got more snow last evening and through the night. Winter is in full effect this season! So, here's how I made this card!

  2. Emboss card front.
  3. Emboss orange cardstock.
  4. Cut out label on orange cardstock and adhere it to card front center with foam adhesive.
  5. Add ink to the orange label.
  6. Punch flower, distress and assemble with a circle punch, vintage button, and hand cut leaves.
  7. Round the corners.

It's perfect and very beautiful, sometimes, you need to rest the stamps and play with other materials in your stash! Love that tiny flower center, looks like a crystal.
