Anyone that knows me, knows that hand making cards is just NOT my thing. They end up as clutter and turn into trash after I spent way too much time on them, so you can imagine my hesitance at making any of Lori’s amazing cards. Don’t get me wrong, they are BEAUTIFUL and inspire me as I upload them into the shop. And this week that desire to play with them over ran my clutter theory, and boy am I glad. These cards were so easy and fast! I think it took more time glueing pieces together than it did cutting everything, and it didn’t take that long to glue them.
I used a few of Lori’s files for these cards as well as her “Note to Self” collection from Echo Park. The “Birthday Button Set” inspired this round of cards. Originally it was just going to be one card, but I had left overs and some other patterns I was dying to try. I also used “Card Base and Envelope Set 2” for the Birthday card. These are AMAZING. If you have not tried any of them head over to the shop and grab one, or two, or three ;). They cut out so fast and beautiful. For the star card I used Lori’s “Belly Band Cards.” I can’t say enough about how quick and easy these were. I definitely see card making in my future thanks to Lori. Glad she has lots to choose from. There is a bit more info on my blog if you need it… happy card making, Lisa
Very cool 🙂
Isn’t the happy birthday card backward?
Deb, You’re right! Lisa accidentally cut her paper upside down and was so bummed. But, instead of throwing it away, she finished the card. I guess she’ll have to use it for a “backwards” birthday party : )
