Today is Papertrey's July 2011 Blog Hop!!!
I made a little tissue box card today.
I've wanted to make one like this for awhile.
I cut the "tissue box" with an oval cutter and then put an acetate square behind the hole.
Then I cut an "X" with a craft knife and pushed some tissue through.
Thinking tissue would be too cutesy for a sympathy card,
I thought a good book....the type that makes you cry... would be fun.;)
I am making this post short so you can hop along.....
Here is the inspiration photo:
