Welcome to Makeover Monday!!

Today’s card is a “stepped up” version of yesterday’s Simple Sunday card. I kept the color palette the same, however, I added some designer series paper, some embellishments and a die cut. It is amazing how you can enhance the look of a card by just adding a few elements.

I added some designer series paper and baker’s twine on the inside as well.

Here are the dimensions:
Real Red, 5-1/2 X 8-1/2, score at 4-1/4
Basic White, 5-1/4 X 4
Basic White, 5-1/8 X 3-7/8

Welcome to Facebook Live!! Every Wednesday at 7:00 pm, ET, I am live on my Facebook Group Page, Stampin’ Gala Stampers Group. If you miss the presentation, you can always watch the replay. All past videos can be found here. Keep in mind, you must be a member of my Facebook Group.
I always create two cards and one 3D item.

This week, I am sharing a new Hostess Only item. It is the beautiful Designer Series Paper, Pattern Party. It is a large pack of 24 sheets with awesome designs. One side is very colorful and the back has black and white patterns. I am sure it is going to be a big hit.

The sentiments on these cards can be changed to celebrate a child’s birthday.


The 3D item holds a large pack of gum.

Today’s card focuses on some of my favorite things that are on the Last Chance List.
To create this card, I used the following retiring products. They are only available while supplies last.
2019-2021 Subtles DSP
Silver Foil Sheets
2″ Circle Punch
Stitched Be Mine Dies
Stitched Shapes Dies
Silver Edged Ribbon
Snail Mail Twine Combo Pack

I stamped the image with VersaMark and heat embossed with Silver Embossing Powder. In the new Annual Catalog, the embossing powders are only sold in groups of three.

I also “dressed up” the inside of the card.
