Day 4 Using Old Greeting Cards

Some cards may need a little more creativity. Don’t be afraid to collage over the image or text on a greeting card. Here is a blog post about my using items from my stash including an old vintage greeting card.

Select scraps of paper, like mixed media pages or gel prints. Using stamped images is a great way to add something pretty.
