Thinking of You by Naomi White

Front of Card

What do you do with one 12" x 12" double sided pattern paper, some cardstock and an hour or two? Make 5 cards.

I used Sassafras "Vintage Lovely" for the 5 cards I completed.

Here is the complete list of what I used for these cards:

• "Vintage Lovely" pattern paper by Sassafras
• Paper Accents cardstock - Light Pink, Bright Pink, Light Blue, Blue (color?) & white
• Pink & blue ink & sponges for edges of the cuts
• Dk. & light pink brads
• Corner rounder punch
• Decorative edge punch
• Cricut cuts for George Basic shapes & Elegant Edges cartridges

Most of the cardstock I used for cuts & borders was in my box of saved extra cardstock paper. I hate to throw out anything larger than 3" x 3".

Check out my blog at inspire-a-tion.blogspot.com I have class photos of past projects and I have been a Cricut cutting fool for the past couple of weeks and will be psoting more of my projects in the coming weeks.
