Flip the Layout

Take a look at todays layout and then check out the layout from yesterday.  Do you notice that’ it’s the same layout only upside down?  I enjoy reusing layouts but changing them up a bit.  This time around the banner is in the top left rather than the bottom right.  Now imaging turning the card on it’s side and you’ve got another layout.  Versatility, that’s what I’m talkin’ about!

Calypso Coral & Crisp Cantaloupe

Do have a gravitate towards a  color simply because it’s a color you look good in?  I sure do.  My closet is filled with things that are coral colored.  I even have a coral colored purse!  I’ve loved our Calypso Coral from the start when it premiered as an In Color over 2 years ago.  And now we have Crisp Cantaloupe which looks awesome with it, simply because it’s a light shade of coral.  It doesn’t get any better than that!  For this card, I wanted lots of texture so I used a couple embossing folders, textured lace trim and a textured Antique Brads, not to mention oodles of layers.

Simply Sketched Sympathy

 
Most times when need a card we know it ahead of time and can plan for it.  Not so when we need a sympathy card.  I like to have some sympathy cards on hand at all times.  This is a card I made a few months ago and fortunately I haven’t needed to use it yet, so I thought I’d share it with you.
