Sending Smiles!

Hi Friends! I hope you're having a great day! I'm headed off to the dentist in a bit so I'm filling my head with happy thoughts and pretty things before I leave! Honestly.. I really am happy to be going back to the dentist again.. he's someone I've been seriously in need of in these past few months. 
Today I'm playing along at Freshly Made Sketches because you know I just can't resist a sketch challenge. For me it's like following along with a recipe.. just create the layout and embellish it with your favorite images. 
That striped side panel had me immediately thinking of the Pretty Pink Posh Stitched Strips. They come in a set of four so you can cut lots at a time. I have a bag I keep with all the spares for different projects. They also come in stitched and plain. They're great for sentiments too!
I adhered the strips to a piece of scrap paper and then trimmed it into a panel to fit my card face. I added a pretty Scallop Circle in white as the focal point and topped it with pretty Flourishing Fuchsias that I colored with Copic Markers. 
An Everyday Sentiment is stamped directly on the card to keep it CAS and a sprinkle of sequins adds a bit of eye candy!
Sending you smiles to make your day brighter!
