"You Made my Day" Thank you Card by Andrea Amu

You Made my Day Card
Curtsey Boutique Designer
Andrea Amu

Outside my window this morning dozens of butterflies are flitting about and quite literally making my day. The wonders of nature never fail to bring a smile to my face.

  Andrea's card most assuredly did the same for the sweet friend it was intended to thank.  I love her monochromatic blue palette with just a pop of orange.

Altered Score Pad with Jenifer Cowles

Game Night Score Pad
Curtsey Boutique Designer
Jenifer Cowles

We don't watch a lot of TV at our house but we do play a lot of games and we are always savaging around for some scratch paper to keep score on.  

When I finished up with a big project I noticed that I had a bunch of perfect sized papers for a Score Pad.  I quickly bound it all together and put this fun cover on it and now we are ready to go.  

Now playing games is even more fun and the kids fight over who gets to keep score.

Framed Winter Decor with Andrea Amu

Framed Winter Decor
Curtsey Boutique Designer
Andrea Amu

This project uses the same easel frame concept that Andrea used around the holidays for her Christmas decor.

Again she  removed the glass from her  frame and inserted an embossed 5x5 cardstock base to embellish for an updated Wintery theme.  

For this framed decor she used a variety of Curtsey Boutique notions including, mini glitter snowflakes, white felt doilies and baker's twine.
