Strategy for Simple Cards


I don't know about the rest of the card makers out there but, I never seem to have enough cards for occasions that I need.   ESPECIALLY for Sympathy cards.   One of the reasons is that they are sad cards so, I don't like to make them.   Well, I decided that I am going to try to build up some stock by using a couple 12x12 sheets until I only had scraps left.   here is what I came up with.   There are no Cricut cuts here, just the paper and sentiments, ribbons, or other embellishments.
All of these were made with two sheets from the DCWV Garden Party stack.   

This one has a sheer ruffled ribbon down the left side, from Crate Paper Peppermint collection,  as well as a 'woodgrain' butterfly sticker from Studio Calico.   The stamp is Inkadinkado.

This one has a tag from the stack and a pearl from Core'dinations.   The scallop border is also included with the stack and the ribbon is from Martha Stewart Crafts.

The one features a TPC Studio stamp on the outside and a Fiskar's on the inside, as well as green flocked ribbon from Making Memories


This last one has a stamp from American Crafts; Dear Lizzy ribbon; and the brown solid frame was embossed with the Tim Holtz Regal Flourishes folder.
