Here is my card using staples. I made a few sketches that used a lot of staples, but I decided on this design. I was thinking it could be for someone who is heart broken, sick, having heart surgery ... or just to encourage someone who is feeling blue.
White + black, Michael's c.s. Blue and pink cut from scrap box c.s., with EK Success punch. Ranger di to distress hearts, sentiment and edges of card. MFT sentiment stamped with Ranger di.
THANKS for looking! I enjoyed looking at your creations in the Gallery!

What a great card to send to someone whose heart has been broken by some unforseeable event. I'm thinking of all my fellow Texans who have lost their homes to these horrible fires. We are thankful most lives have been spared.

ahhhhhh, this is what i like. so creative, not just using staples to hold something on, which is cool, but this is so much better. excellent, into my favorites.

Nothing else but staples would have worked for this- what a great way to use them on a card! The handmade feel of this makes it really sweet and heartfelt. Nice job!
