Damask Yo-Yo

Hello! I hope you all had a great weekend!! It is cold and snowy here and while I'm glad for moisture, I'm not a huge fan of cold or snow!  But, we'll manage!  LOL!

I have a quick post for you today.  I made another card with a yo-yo and I think I'm going to be addicted to these for a while!  They are SO FUN to make!


I loved this material the moment I laid eyes on it!  Brown & turquoise...one of my favorite color combos!  I love it even more as a yo-yo on a card!  I kept this layout very simple so it wouldn't distract from the yo-yo.  This card was fast and easy to put together.  I took my ink pad and ran it around the outside edges of the card to give it a little bit of color and additional visual interest.


I used some more glitter paper on the banner die.  That stuff is so fun and easy to use! I love the no-mess results!

Thanks for coming by today!! I hope you have a great day!

    Very cute. I have never heard of a "yo-yo" but I love it. I need to figure out how to make my own.
