Hello everyone, Vicki here. I couldn’t resist playing with these beautiful Webster’s Pages papers for the card I created for this blog post. With Mother’s Day just around the corner, I decided to create a card to give my sister for Mother’s Day. I LOVE butterflies, so of course I chose to make them the focal point of my card 🙂
My “go to” adhesive is the E-Z Runner®, its always on my work table. I used it for putting the layers of my card together, but I used white 3D Foam Squares to give lift to the individual die cut pieces with the butterflies off the paper a bit. It always amazes my what a difference just a little bit of dimension can make.
This is just a little something I wanted to share, along with my card. As I was looking at the papers sitting here on my desk, my eye was drawn to this beautiful paper with the rose image. I remember that I had some vintage metal trays in my supply closet that this paper would look so great on. Something as simple as adding paper to this tray… finding a new use for something old makes me HAPPY! The E-Z Runner® did the job, perfectly adhering the paper to the metal.
Sometimes a quick simple project works into the day perfectly. Almost instant gratification:)
Enjoy the process!
