On the 14 card, I used the canvas borders as a border on a pocket.
The butterfly on this card was an old chipboard butterfly from my stash. I layered 3 pieces of canvas, starting at the bottom. After covering the butterfly, I turned it over and trimmed off the excess. I added a little bit of brown chalk to the edges of the canvas, so you could see the different layers.
Here I gathered the canvas every inch or so to create pleats! It has a sticky back on it, so it stays right where you put it! Kind of looks like a little rainbow here.
The hole is punched with a 2" circle punch and then I added a felt Doodad from the Sweetness line on the inside of the card.
Everything you see on these cards is from the Sweetness line! Love it! Stop over to the Pink Paislee blog to read more! :)

I created 2 tags for my page to use this gorgeous yellow paper. Glue Arts makes a great adhesive for embellishments which I used to attach the buttons to the stars...it's called Extreme Adhesive Squares and they are just like Glue Dots, but I think they are even better and stickier. I've always used Glue Dots, but I think these are terrific!
This photo was taken of Kati the day before she started Kindergarten this year. We had a "meet the teacher" night, and I took a few pics of her before we left!
