Five Minute Anniversary Card

Hello! Are you always short of time like I am?  Do you still want to send out special, hand made cards to your loved ones?  I know I don't want my lack of time to stop me from commemorating a loved one's birthday or anniversary, so when I'm pressed for time I use interesting stickers that have a lot of dimension or detail.  

It only took me about five minutes to put this card together because I used a dimensional vellum sticker from Jolees for my main image.  Then to add just a little more interest I stamped a sentiment from Crafty Secrets in the upper corner and embossed it with clear embossing powder.  I probably could have added a ribbon or bow on the bottom, but I wanted to be able to mail it with just a single postage stamp and not have any bulk which would require me actually going INTO the Post Office to have it weighed.

 Here is a close up of the sticker.  It even has glitter in the center of the flower.
Have a great day! Amy

  2. It's beautiful Amy. My cards, even the simple ones somehow always take forever to make and the clean up is even a longer process. Might have to check out some of these stickers, for when I need a card fast.
