Before and After

I redid this one and I like it a little better! I love the simplicity but I just needed more to make it POP a little. So here you go for the before and after :-) The changes are as follows:

I swapped out the retired vintage brad for Fire Rhinestone brad. I colored around the "frame" edge with a Copic marker. I added some Heidi Swapp rhinestones (which came in a Costco pack I got awhile pack) before the punched out sentiment which I also edged with a marker.

I do think the changes make the card pop a little better and I am so appreciative to my stamping/blogging friends in my attempts to learn and improve in this craft.

Thanks for visiting!

  1. I really like the additions you made to the card. It truly does pop more. The first card was nice too, but this one is definitely more "wow".
