GOOD MORNING & welcome to another THROWBACK THURSDAY challenge!;)
For my card I used "Gift Card Sentiments" for the stitching line. The cartridges are "Art Philosophy" for the base of my card & the butterly is from "Everyday Pop up cards"! That ADORABLE embossing & sentiment is just a little "Hint" of what you are in "store" for next week!!!;) I CAN'T WAIT!:)

*** Link your project up to Mr. Linky below, then leave a comment!
*** Deadline for this challenge will be on Wed, Feb 15th @ midnight!
*** ONE project per person please!
Here is my video showing you how I designed this in my "Gypsy Girl"!;)

  2. I just laughed at myself and I watched your video. I seriously didn't know that you can just use the arrow to move up my card base to make it even, LOL. I also just moved it that's why I could never even it up. I always learn something from you my friend. Can't wait for the new release and wonderful inspirations from all the DT.

    Hugs,
    Kate

  16. I was wondering why I wasn't getting anything about your new posts!! I tried to resubscribe but it said that I was already subscribing. But I'm not getting notified about your news posts. Don't know what is going on, but I noticed that I missed out on a lot! I guess I'd just better start checking everyday!! I love your butterfly card, so cute. The DT did a great job as well, I'm always so impressed by what they do!!

  26. I love learning new things from you Emma! Because I still have the little 12 x 6 Cricut, I always need to do my matting on another layer on my Gypsy and I could never figure out how to copy one shape from layer to layer. Thanks for teaching me, Emma! Your card is FAB! Simple and Adorable. My favorite!
