Today is my final day showcasing the Ephemera packs. I kept my designs very simple and basic, to show new stampers how easy it can be to make cards for your family and friends.
For more experienced stampers, you could absolutely add in more layers, fun folds and techniques to give the cards more of a wow factor....but I believe sometimes simple is better.
I hope that I have shown you the versatility, the value, the economical aspect, and see what beautiful cards you can create using the pieces from these packs.
I truly cannot emphasize enough how FABULOUS and economical the ephemera packs are! Here is what is currently available: !
Washes and Floral Tags
Time For A Celebration
Spring Celebrations
Something For Everything
Saying Something
Labels and Layers
Greetings For All
Good Times
Fully Flowering
Foiled Frames and Labels
Celebrate Love
Birthday Treats
And here is an end of the week roundup of all the ephemera cards that I shared with you this week:
