Phoning in Some Cards

Last year my kid sis gave me a bunch of Xmas stickers, borders, printed vellum, etc.  Really nice but they've been gathering dust as I'm not much of a sticker person and then it occurred to me I could put them to really good use for the Caring Hearts Card Drive. Ding, ding, ding! 

These are just a sample of some of the cards I made using the gifted supplies.  Honestly, I felt like I was phoning it in because the borders and vellum do the work so I stitched the elements on and/or added dry embossing to make the cards more handmade.  The stitching was a no brainer since I already had the machine out after I whipped up a new bed for Frankie, having tossed out his fleecy flea-ridden one (ewww!).  He loves his new craft table bed and I love his flea meds.  Win, win!
