This card uses the Sneak Peek release set called Enjoy the View with today's set. The scene is from On The Fly.

I used a scrap of printed paper for this card. I found it in the rubbish bin at the local scrapbook store! It measured 1" x 12" I have a bit left for another card. Buttons were cut off clothes I found for 25cents or less at garage sales.

This one here was made with Tweet That. I cut 10 pieces of paper 1/2 inch by 8 1/2 inches and wove them together to make the frame. I had to trim the edges to make it fit in the black layer.Top knot feather is a piece of frayed ribbon that was left over from my card for Tuesday's hop. That frame is from Christmas Music stamp set. Inspiration was from a plate I seen at Cracker Barrel.

The local mini mall allows our church to hold the fall festival in the parking lot on Halloween.  I am making Thank You cards for the managers or owners of every business that is participating this year. The printed scrapbook paper was given to me by a friend for the cards. I don't usually use this type of paper. An advantage to the paper is less stamping is needed!

I used ribbon on this card that was easy to fray with my fingers. I made a tutorial for Easy Fraying Here.
