Hi there everyone!
By now, I'm sure that many of you have started working on your Christmas cards already. If not, finished them altogether! (to be honest, I haven't even started!! So I've got a bit of work ahead of me! Yikes!)
When I received some of the Epiphany Crafts Bubble Caps I knew right away that I was going to create some cards with them. They were the perfect shape for the ideas that I wanted to create on my cards.
My 1st card, "Celebrate the Season", I decided to make a Christmas Tree shape/design using the Epiphany Bubble Caps. I used 5 of them and staggered them into a triangular shape.
My 2nd card, "Walking in a Winter Wonderland", is again a simple design. I wanted to use the button stickers from the Simple Stories Handmade Holiday sticker collection along with the Epiphany Bubble Caps. They make the stickers look so glossy and raised up - looking like real buttons almost.
I created my card with some stickers, patterned papers & ribbon. Then finished it off by adding the button stickers with the Ephiphany Bubble Caps. Super easy & super cute!
Thanks for looking.

I am a great fan of Simple Stoires and love the paper, the journaling cards/tags and layout ideas. I have a little girl who is a real little tomboy and the paper + page layouts are brilliant for scrapping her on... love the card ideas. Not a big fan of card making, but your cards have inspired me.
Guess what i will be doing for the next 2 weeks... making cards. Thank you Simple Stories xxx
