Three Easy Pieces

I found a three-panel layout somewhere, I think it was Ali Miles at Gingersnap Creations, but I could not find it on her blog, but I am giving her credit for it anyway!  This is a wonderful easy sketch and I broke into some paper I had been hoarding to make some generic birthday cards:

and then a Christmas one for an upcoming hostess:

You can't get much simpler than these!  If you have any questions, shoot me an email!

On a different note, here is a little Faux Alligator Top Note purse I made as a raffle prize for the recent upline meeting I attended:

DSCF5306

This was made from Melon Mambo cardstock, using directions from Donna at Butternut Sage.  I also have a written tutorial--it you'd like it, just shoot me an email as well.  It is fun and easy!!!

that first card is just beautiful - simple yet oh so elegant. Did you stamp that image on the first card or was it already there on the paper?

You really don't get much simpler than that really - I love them - can I CASE them!?

Love the 3 panel card. What a simple way to bust out a few cards. I love the Faux Aligator in Melon Mambo, too cute.
