Fast Card Friday

Today's card was a super fast card that I honestly made just to get rid of the last little bit of twine ribbon that I had left.  I've had it for years and years and was sick of looking at it.  I kept holding onto it for the "right moment" but that never came so I decided to force a "right moment"!

The rest of the card was super simple, just stamping thank you and punching out some cute hearts.  I think it turned out nicely and it suites the fall season well.  Of course, it wouldn't be one of MY projects without some bling.  

Not only did I get to use my twine but I also was able to use scrap paper that I unfortunately can't identify.

Identifiable Elements:

• Tree paper- "I Love Family" collection by Echo Park Paper Co.
• Thank you stamp- Wacky Wishes by Stampin' Up!

Fast Card Friday

The dreaded orange felt is back.  I promise there's not much of it left. Sorta.

Once again, this was a quick card that I slapped together.  It was for a friend of mine who was kind enough to send me a gift card to Meijer after I found out I am a celiac a few months back and needed to get all new (more expensive) groceries.  

There wasn't much time for digging through embellishments so I used some unlabeled orange glitter glue (it was a gift, I didn't buy any shady black-market glitter glue) to add some more texture and dimension to the piece.

Glitter glues really emphasize the handmade element of cards that I love.

The base card is from a really old (I'm talking YEARS) card kit.

Identifiable Elements:

• Orange paper- the "Melon Ball" paper pack by Colorbӧk
