A Beautiful Peony Seed Packet

Hello to all from a very, very HOT Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Heat like this doesn't hit us too often, but when it does, it sure knocks us fair weathered souls off our feet - me especially! So the best place to be is inside, where most of us do NOT have central air, but very, very grateful for a kitchen window A/C unit! 

I am, however, feeling a breath of fresh air from the card Karen Letchworth is sharing with us today using sets we are featuring this week as our Product of the Week at 20% OFF! Be sure to check out all the details near the end of this post.

Isn't this just absolutely STUNNING in a simple, vintage theme.

Pretty Poppies Fun Fold

Good morning once again! Fun folds are always fun to make and though they can sometimes be quite intricate, we have one to share today from Deb Felts that just could not be any more simple! Her card has one extra fold that adds a ton of extra interest. We like simple around here, and this is surely it!

Deb used one of the sets that is featured this week at 20% OFF as our Product of the Week - Pretty Poppies. It's on sale for this week only, so be sure to read the sale details further down.

This is the very striking card front.

You will note that the only extra fold on this card is the front that is scored right down the center to create a back fold, so to speak.
