This first card I used the Love Birds image from Digital Stamp Oasis (have you been there yet? Fabulous, FABULOUS images...they are all too cute!). I printed this image out on my printer and then colored them in with colored pencils and gamsol (and I used really cheap pencils...those Rosearts from WM). I then cut them out with my Nestabilities Circle and then cut out a Nestabilities Scallop to put them on!
I mounted them on my card sticking about 1/2 off...the card is a square 4 1/4" X 4 1/4" and the part sticking out makes the card 4 1/4" by 5 1/2" so it will fit in a regular A2 envelope! I got this idea originally from Michelle Wooderson and she calls these Table Tent cards (like you'd see at restaurants).
I added ribbon and my sentiment towards the bottom...recipe is below the card, make sure you see all THREE!

Here's my last card (again some of my blog followers have seen this one also)...this is actually the first card I made. I added my papers, my lace border and ribbon, stamped my sentiment and floral motif, cut out using Nestaabilites and mounted on the top of the card. I threaded a ribbon through my button holes and added that to the bottom...quick and easy!
