If you have arrived from Joyce's blog you are right on track.

If you ever need to create "Quick & Easy" cards...you may want to give Close To My Heart's Picture My Life (PML) pocket cards a try!! 





Let's take a look at my 2 cards today...and then we'll chat MORE about what PML cards are all about.  
  
  

Our PML cards, are a pack of (12) 4x3 and (12) 4x6 pocket cards.  Yes...they may have been created for our "pocket scrapbookers"....but I know how much I ADORE them as a cardmaker too!
Here is just a SAMPLING of the 24 card designs that are included in this pack. 



I cut down & trimmed the different PML cards and added some of our Mix-In papers to create card fronts using our BULK White Card Bases & Envelopes....love these!!  

Here is a look at the Cedar & Pine PML cards & the Complements I used to create these cards.



The complements are chipboard TAGS....and by adding them into my card design, I was able to add more dimension to my card.  A HUGE thanks for my dear friend Gina Brandstetter & her inspiration for these cards!!  I actually created 15 cards with the entire pack of PML cards....I'll be sharing the rest of these cards on my FB page over the next couple of weeks. :) 

I added a few more products into these card designs...
*Gold Glitter Paper
*Skinny White & Gold Ribbon
*Clear Shimmer Brush
* Loose Gold & Holiday Sequins

I tried to capture the beautiful SHIMMER that the shimmer brush created on the trees.  Can you see it on these photos below?? 





 It was the PERFECT, sparkly accent to adding "snow" the trees, printed on the PML card! 

Thanks for stopping by today!  I hope you enjoyed these fun & easy cards. 


Happy Crafting & have a LOVELY evening!!!

  2. Lovely cards - and so quick and east too. Love the "snow" o the trees. I really like the evergreen color - I have to start using that color more. Thanks for the inspiration.
