Gifts for Friends

 I was invited to a girlfriend's brunch, along with a pan of caramel rolls I brought a few note cards to share with the girls. The idea for these cards came from another demo's blog, but I made them my own with the help of the beautiful Full of Life Designer Series Paper and versatile Saying Something Ephemera Pack.

 This Ephemera pack is chock full of die cut sentiments you can add to any card.


If you love bright colors and fresh patterns you need the Full of Life Designer Series Paper, either side will make a pretty card as these samples show.


I used the Basic White Note Cards for the base of the card as the "cased" fellow Demo did for her cards. 

Enjoy your day!
