You Can Never Have Too Much Hugs

The past few days I've been showing you all the different color palettes within the Sarita paper packet.  We've gone from Cotton Candy and Goldrush to Lagoon and Outdoor Denim (scroll down to see those examples).  Today I am showing what I think is the most unique paper in Sarita, and the primary color is Gypsy.

This paper reminds me of a funky 60's or 70's theme.  With this card and the last, I've used alcohol markers to color the seam binding.  I love coloring with my markers!

I told you in my giveaway (be sure to enter!) that I would show you example from the Laughing Lola Cardmaking Kit stamp set this coming week.  This is a great set, and it's fun to combine all the images. I've used five different stamps from the set on this card - the banners, the paint splatter (my favorite), the tag, and the two sentiments.  The purple gems are also from the Laughing Lola Cardmaking kit.

I have really enjoyed sanding again, so I sanded all of the edges to bring out the white core.

We are off to the Minnesota State Fair today.  We LOVE the fair and everything about it!  Have a grand day no matter what you do, and thanks for stopping in!

Pin It

Just a Little Prayer

As long as I had my Florentine paper out, I thought I would make another card with it.  It's just so pretty that it's hard for me to put it away!

I used the Cricut Art Philosophy cartridge quite heavily on this card.  The card base/layer, butterfly, butterfly layer, flowers, and banner strip were all die-cut.  It's so fun and easy to put a card together using the Art Philosophy cartridge!

Again, I sponged some color-ready seam binding ribbon and finished it off with a couple of foundry pin clips.  The stamp set is Card Chatter-Sympathy and the gems are from the Mocha collection.

Ok, I promise that tomorrow I will put the Florentine away and pull out one of the other new papers!  Maybe I'll put out Victory - a nice masculine paper - to balance things out.  Thanks for stopping by today - I always appreciate the time you spend here!
