To continue to go along with the challenge over at Practical Scrappers this week, I've decided to share some cards that have received make-overs!
***
First, do you remember this card that I posted for the January SOTM Blog Hop? Well, I decided to re-do it with different colors/papers for a club gathering project - I like this one much better! We used the Felicity papers and True Friends stamp set. I love how the Barn Red ink looks on the Desert Sand cardstock.
And then do you remember the house card that I created for my November Workshop? Well, my original card just had a simple little house, it was nothing special. And then I saw Karen Pedersen's DARLING gingerbread house cards so this card got a make-over as well. Thanks to the online clearance sale I also was able to replace my Festive Thoughts stamp set that got lost. I just knew that this sentiment from that stamp set went perfectly - on the inside it says 'from our house to yours'. I also made my own glitter brads (using clear embossing powder mixed with glitter) to add to this card. So much cuter than the original!
Thanks for looking!

Adorable! I love how whimsical the gingerbread house is :).
These are both very beautiful. I don't know what the originals looked like, but these ROCK!! I really love the elegance of the first card & the whimsy of the second one. Thanks for sharing with us at Practical Scrappers.
Oooh, terrific job on the makeovers. I really like how the Barn Red looks on the Desert Sand, too. I'll have to remember that. And I like how you glitterized the brads. Cool idea!
Thanks for sharing, Jena! Hope all is going well with you!
Brilliant cards! I love how you did the buckle look on the first card! Both are fantastic! Thanks for playing with us this week at Practical Scrappers!
Blessings,
