April Shoe Box Card - Barb


It is not unusual for me to mess up a design. This card has multiple sheets of beautiful papers on the inside to coordinate with the front; and, the ribbon was to be inserted between the various papers front and back to tie the card closed at the blank area near the right-hand side.

You guessed it ... I glued down the layers before I inserted the ribbon so I had to improvise and run mine down the fold.

NOTE: I have one more card to upload but I need to change the color of the flower to better match the cardstock first. I'll finish it up in the morning.

I am just now looking through your recent posts and they are outstanding! I love the "alice" and steampunk ones! I CANNOT believe you got to meet Michelle Z.!! I am green with envy...Those "practice" cards are just amazing!

As the saying goes ... there is no mistakes in stamping! This looks just as nice this way :) Barb can always come up with simple yet elegant cards!

It's hard to believe that you make mistakes or less than fabulous creations Carolyn. I remember France used to have a section on her website where she showed how she "fixed" mistakes. It was one of my favorite features. I'm always telling Jaylene that art in real life never matches what's in our head, so we just need to adapt and find a workable solution. I really like how yours turned out.
