Carta Bella Words of Love Collection - Greeting Cards

Hello, Carta Bella Paper fans!
I'm up on the Carta Bella Blog today with a two greeting cards using the fabulous Words of Love Collection!

Love at First Sight Card


The Carta Bella Words of Love Collection is absolutely amazing...and not just for Valentine's Day projects!  It is also perfect for anniversary and wedding projects, or just LOVE, in general!
The sturdy texture of this collection is second to none!


Designer Tip:  Simple Embellishing

I love to add a few sprinkles of sequins, enamel dots or buttons and baker's twine my projects for texture and to create movement!  I keep my twine bows to one or a double bow and the sprinkles scattered in odd numbers...here as a trio!
