you are ... business cards:

I wanted to come up with some fun cards for the stationery show last week - these were quick & simple, but I snapped a few shots to share them with you!




The supplies on this card were very simple - I just used blank business cards, rubber stamp, labels, message tape, and dried flowers (picked up at the los angeles flower mart)
 
I used a couple different kinds of ink jet labels - brown kraft round & gold triangles.


On one side, I placed the gold label and stamped with our today stamp.




On the other side, I cut a couple of the dried flowers and taped it with our message tape.


All done! Super simple & easy. The only thing about this type of card is that it's more novelty, it doesn't provide a ton of info. Actually, I only put my .com address. No email address, no other information... Email probably would have been good to add.

  29. Wow I love this! I've actually been wanting to do business cards for my blog and somehow incorporate actual dried flowers rather than printing my blog header (which is a photograph of my dried flowers). These ones you have are quite perfect, do you happen to know what kind of flowers these are?
