Cork

Good morning!  I have a simple card to share today that has a fun little embellishment, cork!  Several months ago I bought some cork sheets from Michelle Wooderson's Etsy shop.  I looked everywhere to try and find them locally, but had no luck.  I have only used the cork sheets once, horrible I know, since I bought them from Michelle.  I'm afraid to use them all up ;) since I can't just run right out and buy some more.

Imagine my excitement when I was at Michael's Sunday and I ran across the cork sheets...ON CLEARANCE!!!!  Now I feel like I can use cork until my heart is content!



This cork slides right through my Cuttlebug with my dies like butter.  Love it!  In fact, I was so excited about the cork, I didn't realize how plain the base of my card looked until I uploaded my pics.  Ha!  We'll just focus on the embellishment for today, okay?  :)

That's it for me on this lovely Wednesday.  We had a busy night last night so I'm looking forward to a nice relaxing evening tonight.  Thanks for stopping by today and I'll see you tomorrow!

  2. Great card! I have a sheet of cork somewhere - it's probably packed at the moment. I need to use it on some projects too. Good to know it goes right through the cuttlebug - that's what I will use! :)

  3. Very cute! I just did a card yesterday using cork that I bought at HL. I also bought some from Michelle, but the one from HL is adhesive backed which I love.

  8. Such a pretty card.
    I have yet to try using cork, maybe a Michael's visit tomorrow ;)
    I think it may be the popular embellishment as I saw one on a couple of projects today :)
    Yup I think I need to get me some, teehee.
