Need a quick but interesting card?
This stamp from Elusive Images called Tulip Script suit the task well. I used Promarkers to colour the image and distress inks to colour the background, then added 1 layer of embossing powder. The corners are actually two big scallop squares. Job done!

Another simple idea which is very effective.
After reading your tutorial for extending Nellie Snellen rectangle dies, I had a go myself and it was so easy. Here's the link Click Here
Thank you for sharing your ideas so freely - you help to make my stash so much more versatile.

Hi again Eileen,
Would love to be featured again in your gallery ... if that's allowed of course. Have been a follower for a long time now and regularly pop by to check out your latest creations and tutorials, although don't always leave a message (shame on me!)
Love your fold back card idea too and may have to have a play with my border punches - will let you know how successful - or not - I am LOL!

So clean and elegant, thanks for a great idea!
Hi Eileen.
You left a message on my blog about being featured on your blog - oh my that would be such an honour. i've added myself to your follower, but can't understand why I wasn't there already cause I do follow you. LIke Max I'm a bit lazy on the commenting side though.
This is the link to the card you liked...

and this is the first version I did in vellum quite a long time ago but I thought you might like to see the black and white contrast.

Reading my post for that date I must have seen someone else do it somewhere so it's not totally original, but then what is - all ideas travel round and round. We would be very poor crafters if we didn't share.
Thanks for making my day by admiring my card.
