I grabbed my leftovers from the recently retired CTMH Life Delights paper pack, coordinating My Stickease, one colour of ink (Chocolate), the brand new True Friends stamp set, some Just Blooms paper flowers and a handful of brads and got to work.
I must say that overall I'm pretty pleased with what I came up with. True Friends was really fun to work with. It's a collection of four decorative frames, 3 curly brackets and a few 'friendship' sentiments that make for some pretty nice card elements I must say. Don't forget though that they would work equally well as a journaling spot or embellishment bases on a scrapbook page also, and I can't wait to put them to use there.
Here are my cards. The first 2 are 8 x 3.5 inches - a size I just love because they fit in a standard envelope. They utilize the same basic design structure, but one is rotated 90 degrees.
The next 2 are 4.5 inches square - again using the same basic design with a simple rotation.
And finally, the last 2 cards which are standard 4.25 x 5.5 inches.
Aren't they sweet?
