Just Because Cards Episode #2-Rooster Card

Updated to add the link to share your version of the rooster card. Can't wait to see what you come up with....

Lovin' this Rooster....

Today we are working on the Rooster card....LOL I thought this one was going to be hard for me to come up with a design, but it kinda just came together as I was picking out the papers.

Here is the video...


Under "Video Series" at the top you will find the first two videos in the JBC series...

Hope you have a great day....I'm heading out the door to volunteer at my son's school.

I loved the Rooster Crowing at the end. You should mention that there is a product out there for putting stickum on the flap. It is called LICK & STICK. It is a roll on tube. You roll on the adhesive on the flap and let dry (open). Then when you are ready to seal the envelope at a later time; you just moisten the clue. (just like a regular boughten envelope). I don't sell it or know where it is sold. I just have a tube of it.

Great card, great video (nice addition at the end). I really like your use of the patterned paper, as well as the bling!
Interestingly enough, I've had that QuickStik for a very long time, and never, ever used it, until...after I watched you use it in your last video. Thanks for reminding me to actually use some of these products I just had to have. :)

I loved how the envelope and card matched so well--the little seal was a nice added touch too. The paper and colors all went together so nicely and the added bling was just the right touch to finish everything off. Thanks for making the video and sharing all of your knowledge.
