I will start with the first card...which is my favorite...I cut and folded a 5 1/2"x5 1/2" piece of kraft cardstock for my card base. I had leftover piece of printable large enough to frame the base of the card which I adhered along with a doily to the front of the card.
The leftover bits from the flowers, leaves and teapot I had fussy cut I didn't throw these away but crinkled, rolled up, distressed and inked and added as filler in the pocket. Next I filled in blank spots the fussy cut flowers and teapot. I also added the sentiment in the bottom corner of the card.
I added a couple of flowers, lace, pearl sprays and pink thread to finish off these card.
The next card I cut and folded a page from the kit to create the base for the card. I fussy cut the signage/flowers and birthday cake out and added to a doily and patterned cardstock.
I added Stickles to the cake and once dry I added tiny gems to the center of the flowers that are on the cake. I also adhered a flower, some leaves, thread, trim and a birthday sentiment that I had printed from the computer to finish this card off.
The last card I cut and folded a 4"x6" piece of kraft cardstock for the base of my card and added a piece of leftover printable to the base along with a doily. I then adhered a banner and the chocolate image to the card.
Next I embellished the daisies with buttons, sequins and Dew Drops. The sentiment I printed from the computer and I finished off the card with a flower,thread and a pearl spray.
The cake and chocolate cards are so easy to put together and only took me about and hour (minus fussy cutting) and now are ready for when I need a card to send to my friends or family. I tend to do all my fussy cutting while watching TV or if I have to wait at the doctor's office...it makes time go quicker ;-)
