Laced with Grace Card Set with Laurie Schmidlin

Hi there!  As June comes to an end, I thought I would share a few more flower filled cards all wrapped up in a custom box!
I not only love to make cards, but I love to give card sets as gifts!  In fact, it's one of the most requested item from friends and family!
GD Card Box
I created a little box to hold several mini cards using several goodies from the Laced with Grace collection!  The front of the box is decorated with a Laced with Grace Cardstock Sticker, buttons, trim, and a matching flower.
GD Card Box1
Each of the cards are 4" square and come with an envelope.  For embellishments on this card, I added a Cardstock Sticker and Glitzer (all from the Laced with Grace collection).
GD Card Box2
For this card, I started by stamping the background (with the Laced with Grace Clear Stamps).  I then topped it off with a Glitzer and a sentiment!
GD Card Box3
For this card, I wanted to the beautiful rose frame stamp (from the Laced with Grace Clear Stamps).  Because I was going for a softer look, I thought a chalked look would work nicely.  After stamping the image with Versamark ink, I added some color using my chalks and some cotton swabs.
GD Card Box4
For this last card, I added a background layer using some of the Laced with Grace Paper Layers!  A stamped sentiment surrounded by a decorative Glitzer completes it.
GD Card Box5
Here's a photo of the gift box, cards, and envelopes all together.  I just love how all of the items from the Glitz collections work so well together!  It sure helped me to whip up this gift in no time flat!
I'm so glad you joined me today!  I hope your day is filled with creativity!  ~Laurie
