A Classy Card Set

Let me start by saying a HUGE thank you to each of you that commented on Emma's card.  You've made her head swell a little.  Seriously, she and I both appreciate it!  I love the time she spends with me crafting and I'm glad you enjoy seeing her creations!

This was a fun set to make!  I wanted to make a nice variety for the teachers and Emma's french teacher is "classy".  not that her homeroom teacher isn't, but I'd say whimsical describes her better:)  They are both great so I hope they like their card sets!

This uses the Love Story DSP.  (Everytime I say the DSP I can't help but start singing some good ol' Taylor Swift:)  The quick dimensions on the card are:

• Vanilla - 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 scored at 4 1/4, Decorative Label, 2 x 4 1/4
• Basic Black - 4 1/4 x 2 then torn
• DSP - 4 1/4 x 5 then torn
• Riding Hood Red - 2 1/8 x 4 1/4

Then I used an assortment of ribbons on the card front with a little vintage brad!  YUMMY!  This layout was cased from a card on Kimberly Van Diepen's blog.  It was a Christmas card and really doesn't look like mine, BUT it was the origin of my card - thanks Kimberly!

Alrighty, off to continue my crafting adventures and play with my boys!  Lots to do:)  See you soon!!!

Take care,

Heather

I have to say Heather that it is great Emma does crafts with you. My daughter always did with me and as a college student now and as a high school student, she always puts together great projects. Pictures and illustrations are always mounted and cut nicely and always neat and professional. She is handy and crafty and has the "eye" on putting things together. She and your boys will be rewarded in the future with this crafting skill!

I just use my ATG tape or snail works as well:)

Very nice Heather. I love how simple and classy these cards are. What adhesive do you use to hold the ribbon in place like this? Thanks.
