Pretty Little Studio - Follow Your Heart


Hi Friends! Thanks for stopping by! I hope you're having a great day doing something you love! Maybe you've snuck in a little crafty time today? It's my favorite way to relax - a sweet escape to anywhere I want to go!

I love all of the Pretty Little Studio collections, and I think they all have their very own personality and style. Today's card is made with the Shine Bright Collection that I think is probably the most "romantic" collection in the shoppe.

The pretty florals and stripes in shades of blue adds lots of drama to the soft pastel florals. The focal point of my card is a Be Loved Tag topped with pretty Simply Floral Blooms. I adhered them with adhesive foam tape for dimension.
Along the bottom of the tag is a triangle border from the Chasing Dreams Die Cut Pack. A sprinkle of shiny sequins adds a little sparkle to this dreamy card.
Have a great day and remember to follow your heart. Hugs!

Simple Stories Sunkissed Collection

If your mind’s been wandering a bit lately, I’m here to tell you that you’re not alone. This time of year I find myself thinking of warmer days and a summer get away. I’m ok with a trip to the beach or a staycation in my backyard.. just bring on the sunshine, a little music and the good vibes!
The Simple Stories Sunkissed Collection totally satisfies! You’ll love the bright colors and fun images that capture perfect summer days.
Summer loves like fresh florals and juicy fruits at the peak of freshness have me dreaming of my garden and watching the bees travel from flower to flower.
Seagulls, shades and buckets for sandcastles make me remember days at the beach watching my kids play, and watching crabs dart about at low tide.
A Ferris wheel, pinwheels and iced pops have me thinking of the annual summer town and church festivals that bring us together as a community. I can almost smell the popcorn in the air!
Don’t forget the lemonade stands on the corners! And if you can’t find one there.. I’m sure that your favorite drive up’s will have added it to the menu as a Summer Favorite.
I’m smitten with the giant blow floats I see at the pool store. They always have them put on display outside and I joke about brining one home even though we don’t have a pool.
What I’m trying to explain is that this collection has it all! I mean every little detail that make your memories come to life.
This collection is ideal for documenting your perfect Summer Days, or for card makes like mine, to send smiles to friends with Summer Birthdays or just to send a sunny hello across the miles.

Reverse Confetti Stock Your Stash - Birthday

Hi friends! Are you ready for a Party? This month at Reverse Confetti the Stock Your Stash Challenge Theme is BIRTHDAY!!
I love the challenge because it's a great way to see my favorite Reverse Confetti Stamps and Dies in action, and when you play along you not only have another great card added to your stash for sending, but you're also entered to win a gift certificate to the store.
I'm playing along with the Party Pals stamp set and coordinating dies. I love all the cute animals in this set and just couldn't decide on a favorite so I USED THEM ALL!!!!
These cuties each have their own personality!  I arranged them on a panel that is inked with Distress Oxide in Mustard Seed, Carved Pumpkin and Candied Apple.

If you look close you'll see that some of the images are adhered flat on the card base while others are adhered with adhesive foam tape. This adds dimension and helps bring the scene to life.
I sure hope you'll join me for this challenge! I can't wait to see what you make!
