Coin Evenlope Mini Album

Make Time to Play Cover

Hi Friends, I'm sharing a playful mini coin envelope album that I created in a swap for my dear friend Lorna. I was really challenged with the construction of this little album as it has a four way function that requires some really unique cuts.  Each piece of cardstock is cut to make a pocket, a page with a flip up feature and a flip out feature.   Let's have a closer look:

Find Your Song, ... Nature Tag

Hi Friends,  Today I'm sharing a nature inspired tag I created for my friend Martica's birthday.  I don't make tags very often, but Martica loves them so I decided to give it a go.  The papers are from my stash of K and Company's classic Nature collection. 

I fussy cut the bird and nest, then popped them up for a little dimension. I used matting gel to add some Tim Holtz musical note tissue paper to the base of the tag.  Then I added a little random sewing and punched the edges to frame the tag.  To embellish, I added a Prima pink vine spray, some Wild Orchard roses, a few butterflies, some bling and lace trim.  Vintage seam binding slips though the back to create a bow tied hanger for the tag. 

Thanks for stopping by, I hope you found a little inspiration here.  If you enjoyed this post, please "Follow" and "Share" my blog with your friends.  Until next time, make it a happy day!  Hugs ~ Dawna

Dove Sympathy Card

Hi Friends,  Today I'm sharing this beautiful sympathy card I made for my sweet friend Debbie.  A bit of tulle and Prima's filigree flower die make a delicate base for the gold tipped red roses.  I love this simple design and its heartfelt sentiment.  Here's a look at the inside:
