Cards from Picture My Life

You can make cards from scrapbooking supplies.  This is my April workshop, inspired by my friend Candace, using the Picture my Life -- Be-YOU-tiful (Z4149).  In the workshop, we'll be making 10 cards.  I have a couple of extra Picture my Life cards left over to make one or two more cards.

I like this PML set and how easily the cards combined for the greeting cards.  The PML cards just needed some cutting (and not all of them).  I added a little Tangerine cardstock (X5972), Gimme Some Sugar Paper Packet (X7228B), Blossom cardstock (X5973), and Peacock cardstock (X5958) to the mix.   I used two stamp sets although I could have gotten away with one.  The main stamp set is C1709 - Chelsea Gardens - Cardmaking.  It has the butterflies and most of the sayings.  The second stamp is M1187 Thinking of You.

Other accessories include Bashful Pearls - Z3369
White Twine - Z3216
Thin 3D foam - Z2060 or Z3341
Peacock Stitched Ribbon (also out of here at the end of the month) - Z4144
Whisper Thick Twine - Z3095
Rose embossing Folder - Z3343 and colored pencils (ours are being updated and aren't available for purchase at the moment)



There are several flowers that were cut out (thanks again, Candace, for the inspiration!).  In fact, the butterflies and some of the sayings are the only things stamped on these cards.

Here are six of the ten cards closer.

The bummer part is that the stamp set and the PML card set - Be-YOU-tiful (and the peacock stitched ribbon) are only available through the end of the month (Seasonal Expressions 1 is retiring)!  The good news is that there is still time to shop and purchase the materials you need to make these cards!
