Just a note

I've been making more note cards this week. I'm still limiting myself to using what I have already but it's actually a much easier way to craft because there's less time thinking about what to pick out. I'm also reusing packaging to make the note card bases and I've got a pile of off cuts for the purpose too. I love the nice dark kraft colour of this packaging though too. For inspiration I turned to this weeks challenge on the American Crafts blog. This week the challenge is to pick something inspirational from the American Crafts blog and scraplift it. That's not much of a challenge really as the blog is full of yum stuff, check it out here, http://www.americancrafts.typepad.com/
I picked out this project and this project and here's what I came up with.....

I used lots of lovely American Crafts papers from my stash leftovers a piece of the lovely Dear Lizzie Fabric too and Thickers. There's also a fun Cosmo Cricket tag, I think it's from the Girl Friday line and I think it works with the American Crafts Dear Lizzy and Letterbox lines really well? After that I made two more...
Used some Flair and some miniMarks on the one on the left and another one of those Cosmo tags mixed with more American Crafts papers.
