Love Birds

 The sponsor of the Outlawz Progressive Freebie Challenge for March is Sheepski Designs, called Love Birds.  I digitally coloured the back ground, layered it onto a card base, then added some heart ribbon and paper flowers.  I was thinking of an Engagement card when I made this one.

Snail Mail Border

Having so much fun lately, I have found a FB page called "Use those Scrap Papers and I am getting so many ideas.  This card was made for a weekly challenge, this one called "Mail Letter Border"

Check out Face Book, you just may get some great ideas. The background paper I found in my stash, just the right size.  The envelopes was a graphic I printed on different coloured cardstock.  I printed a few extra, so they will turn up on future cards.
