You can't go wrong with this card!


This card is so simply yet packs a large punch! The brown tag is perfect for a picture on one side and a message on the other. It slides easily into the pouch and is just so much fun!

Okay, so I went back and added a small embellishment. I like it!

An experiment...gone bad in my opnion!


Please feel free to honestly tell me what you think. This project did not go the way I planned. I actually planned to put the Mothers page on this canvas, but I found that none of my adhesives would stick to it! So, I decided to try to stamp on it. I absolutly don't like my handwriting on it, though I love the words themselves. I'm not pleased with this, but I have gotten complements on it. So, I was thinking I'd try again, maybe with smaller canvas's and stamp a few images on each one and hang them in an arrangement. Any and all opinions and suggestions are appreciated!
