Gel Pens and Gems Card

I used more paper from the Far East stack by DCWV for this tall card.
There is a faint image of a tree branch and a lantern on the page.  I used my gel pens (some were glittered, some weren't) and traced the images.  I filled some of the areas with the colors.  I then glued small gems and dazzles on the card.  There is room at the bottom for a sentiment and the inside is blank at this time.  



The hummingbird and flowers are a dazzle "outies" and the dragonfly is an "innie".  Paper Wishes has lots of examples of getting the most of out of a sheet of dazzle stickers.
This picture shows the size of the card - 9" by 3.75".

All Occasion Sunflower Card

You know the phrase "Let your fingers do the walking."  Well, this is my version of  "Let the paper do the talking".  The front of this card is made from a sheet of paper in K&Company  Designer Mat Pad (Susan Winget's watercolors).
I trimmed the 4.75" x 6.75" paper to fit the 4" by 5.25" mat on my card.  Embellishments are a small silk sunflower with a splash of shear purple ribbon, and two butterflies that I cut from a second sheet of the same paper then covered them with glossy accents. I placed the butterflies on top of the same image on the paper using foam tape ti pop them out.  You can see the original image on the paper under the raised image.  [clear as mud right?]

Inside is a simple knotted ribbon and rub on hearts.
 I thought it would be either a nice thank you, thinking of you, get well or birthday card.
Thanks for stopping by.  Let me know what you think.

Hugs,
Sue
