Valentine card for a friend
For this sample, you'll notice a unique look to the card’s heart by highlighting individual letters in different colours of ink and paper-pieced them together — so colourful!
Now, you'll also see that the 1/8" skinny Red tafetta ribbon was stapled on the card. I have found in the past few years that staples have a polarizing effect on stampers: you either love the look or you hate it.
One thing you CAN do with staples is colour them -- yup, grab that funky neat Sharpie marker in the uber-cool colour you love and colour the top of the staples themselves. Pretty neat effect!
