Greetings with a Card
by Deborah
Let's get back to using snail mail with these quick
and easy beauties. YOU KNOW you love getting cards
in the mail. START SENDING THEM TOO!!!

These cards were created using Creative Memories decorative papers and
some amazing CM tools...you TOO can create these greeting cards


 Border Cartridge Punch (Film Strip) and heart punches


A little Digital will do ya!!! Using Artisan software I created
this clever greeting to personalize this card. 


5 x 7 greeting card, 5 x 7 decorative paper
cut a small slit just about half way at middle
and fold back edges to revile your sentiment

Photograph by Deborah Gonzalez, personalized using
Artisan Software, mounted on a card with a colorful mat
and decorated with the "Flower Chain" border cartridge detail.

Dress to Impress!! 
Engagement, Tea Party, Prom, Wedding day...
you decide what special occasion 
wins honors to land on this 
simple yet creative page layout!

1) pick your favorite cartridge from 
the "Border Maker System" and decorate
one edge of the paper you have chosen.

2) Cut 9 strips x 1" of this decorated sheet.
Set aside two strips at 12" for the sides of your page.

3) Take the 7 remaining strips and cut 6 1/2" off
each one, this will be the skirt portion of your dress.

4) With the remaining portion of each strip
measure 3 1/2" and cut. These pieces will
be the bodice (or top) of your dress.
(do what you like with your left overs) 
5) Arrange on your page in a "fan" design, 
skirt and bodice to meet in the middle (see example)
6)  Create a coordinating color for the belt.
When you use my Creative Memories paper
you will have the advantage of reversible paper
for all of your page designs as each and every 
paper pack have coordinating colors on both sides.
7) Finally, add the 12" decorative strips to the left and right
sides of your page. Add photos/mats....AND YOU'RE DONE!

Enjoy this clever and fun 
way to create the page you
always dreamed of to highlight...
"THE DRESS"
