Think Angella said she wouldn't be able to host, so I'll fill in this week.
I love the look of punched out parts of cards. Let's see what you can come up with. Here are some I found on Pinterest. If you don't have any punches, just cut away part of the top part of your card so you can see the inside when looking at the card. I'll post a sample later of what I make.
