I haven't mentioned this yet but, I started Weight Watchers (again) on January 1st. I only mention this because I have eaten at least one Lean Cuisine every day since and I can't bear to toss the boxes! That's good, FREE, white cardstock! So they are my first "go-to" cardstock when using all my new dies. This week I cut out lots rounded corner cards (about ATC size) using a Sizzix die, that I can use for doodling and/or adding bits and pieces that I have piling up... like the leaf below and the stamped doghouse on the card below... I just like doodling on something that size because any larger blank white paper intimidates me... I figure anyone can fill up this much white space, right?

After I got several cards done (doodled on) I decided that I wanted to hang them together but I didn't want to punch a hole in the top, just in case I decided I wanted to use them for something later. Sooooo, I punched out a fancy little piece using Spellbinders, Parisian Accents (seen in the middle of samples below).
I only added glue to the back so I could easily remove it without messing up the front of the card...
I'm showing you a close up of this next card because I love the gingko leaf. I made that by putting aluminum tape to the front of a piece of box then cut it out...the die has built in embossing lines. Love it.
Below is a quick card I made using one of my cards... quick quick because the work was already done.
