Another Stash Item Eliminated

I mentioned in my last post that I had a kit I'd been shuffling around for quite a while. I hadn't even really looked at it closely enough to realize what it was. Lo and behold, it was a kit of everything need to make a set of 5 all occasion cards! I thought it was just misc. supplies!

 So, I sorted it all out, and started creating cards. There isn't much to it when everything is cut and punched  and pre-matched for you!  This one is a Valentine card.
And here's the finished card:
This one is a "Just Because" card.
 And here's the finished card:
Next we have a Happy Birthday card with fun stitched panel and embellishments.
 And here it is finished:
Here is a "Family Is The Best Kind Of Friends"
 And all put together:
 And last is a "Friend" card:
 I enjoy making cards but it usually takes as long to make one card as it did to do all five of these, with all the work already done!  I have several Valentine cards that I've created, in my Etsy shop, Toletally Painted and also some in The Vintage Dresser shop, if you'd like to take a look.
I've gone back to the bird shapes and have been creating a few Valentine or "just because" ornaments. I'll be sharing those shortly---stay tuned!
