Tissue Paper Cards

I've finally gotten around to putting stuff away from Christmas. I had a bunch of printed tissue paper that I was folding nicely and putting away for next time I might need it. As I was working with this, I realized some of the pieces had gotten torn in such a way that there wasn't much sense in keeping them. However, they were so pretty I hated to just throw them away.

SO . . . I took a plain piece of cardstock and glued the tissue paper to it to create a focal for this card. I did something similar for the next card. The final card has printed tissue paper glued to the card for a background, decorated with gold stickers and ribbon.
