CIRCLE CARD

Here is the CIRCLE card that I created.

I ued my Coluzzel to cut out the circle shape. Layered it with pattern paper. The letters "hi" were stamped with VersaMark Watermark Ink and then heat embossed using black embossing powder.

I hope that you like it. Enjoy and thanks for stopping by!

HEART CARD

Hello all-

Let me first apologize about not having the HEART Card uploaded. I am not sure what happened, but I uploaded it...twice, and for some reason it came up as "done" but when folks viewed the post, nothing was there. In any case, I think the issues have been resolved after much help.

Here is the card with the Coluzzel Heart as the focal point.

Enjoy, and thanks for stopping by!
