I'm working on the 2nd Million card Challenge for Operation Write Home,






So here are some Thinking Of You cards for the Challenge


Card One



This may be the simplest card ever!

To Make this card:
You Will Need
  • Black Card stock
  • 4 brightly colored scraps
  • White A2 Card
  • Thinking of You Stamp (or Other Sentiment)
  • White Studio g ink
Cut
  • Black Card stock to A2 size (4.25in x 5.5in)
  • Using a CM Rotary cutter with a straight blade, cut inside the A2 rectangle 1/4in on 4 sides creating an inside rectangle
  • Trim the smaller rectangle 1/2in vertically and horizontally so that it is 3.75in x 5in
  • Using the Creative Memories Pocket Butterfly Punch, cut one Butterfly from each color of scrap paper

Adhere & Stamp
  • Adhere the black "frame" to the edges of the A2 Card
  • Using White Studio g Ink, stamp you sentiment in the lower right corner of the black rectangle
  • Adhere the black rectangle in the center of the "frame" so that there is a small white strip showing between the rectangle and the frame
