three super fast cards
My projects today have no stamping, cutting, or coloring! I simply created with the 6×6 paper pack and the two ephemera packs.
And isn’t it just beautiful? The gorgeous 6×6 paper pack has bold designs that really do the heavy lifting to bring a project to life. This first card just needed a simple image and sentiment. I snipped one of the sentiments to get the “just” and paired it with the “relax” sentiment to come up with something new.
I followed the same idea for the second card, except I added in a little more greenery since the background wasn’t as busy. No rocket science here! Just mixing and matching to make a quick arrangement.
The last card I whipped together followed the same basic principles, except that I mixed and matched some of the patterned paper to create more of a scene with sky and ground. I love how the pieces extend off the edge of the card base. This is definitely one I would have to put into a larger envelope, or hand-deliver.
