Good Morning! I am going to share something a little different with you this morning. I love to do fancy folds and I came across something a little different on Pinterest the other day so I thought I would give it a try. This card is folded like a business envelope and I used buttons and string to make the closure…
Over at the Use it Tuesday blog they are challenging us to use the supplies that we hoard and avoid using because we just can’t part with them. I’ve got lots of hoarding going on with this creation. The glitter paper is #1… I used it to die cut my little dragonfly. Also the paper doily… I covet all doilies and my friend Carol gave me these doilies and I know that once they are gone I won’t be able to get anymore. 😦 Notice how I only used half the doily? LOL! Yup, I take hoarding to a new level. Also, the paper I used is by My Mind’s Eye Collectable “Today” Now I know I can get more of this paper… but I have to wait until the weekend until I get to visit The Cutting Garden again to replenish my stash. So there you have it, it is a little different but I am happy with the finished project! I hope you like it too!
Have a great day and Thanks for stopping by!!

Just gorgeous, Miss Lisa, what can I say, I am seriously loving that dragonfly, yes very nice, and it is a die cut, hmmmmm might have to get my silver paper out and look at my drangonflies….. you always make me think 🙂 Love the things you do!! Hugs
Oh Lisa, you have done it again! A great idea. It is unique and pretty and a wonderful idea. Thank you for your hard work. Between you and Lauren–you girls pique my interest and inspire me on a daily basis. I look forward to opening my emails because of the two of you. Have a great day.
I forgot to mention I love the dragon fly!

This is another stunning creation Lisa – the dragonfly is super cute!! I, like you, hoard a lot of things but am getting better – I just see it as making room for new and exciting stuff!! Thanks for sharing!
So, so beautiful. I also only use 1/2 of my doilies, when they’re on the edge like that, no need to waste such a beautiful product, haha. Thanks for joining us at Use It Tuesday.
What an absolutely gorgeous card! Love all the details and colors and sweet embellies!! 🙂
Lisa, as always – this is gorgeous! I too am a hoarder… love that you used your ‘special’ papers too.
