PPA256 Times Three

DSCF0591

Happy Saturday, peeps!  I haven’t played with the Pals Paper Arts challenge for a while, and when I saw their sketch, I knew just what a wanted to do!  I loved Linda’s use of the new Greetings Thinlits, and I love ALL the new DSPs, so I went to work!

I am always in need of quick little thank you cards for my customers, so I made some 4.25” square cards to tuck in with their orders.  The first one uses bright papers from the Schoolhouse series; the “thanks” was diecut in Garden Green twice and glued together, then I added stars in Pool Party, Garden Green and Tangerine Tango:

This one uses the same line of papers, different colors; I cut out two “hello” diecuts, one in white and one in Pacific Point, and staggered them for a different look, then added a little flower with a pearl center:

I punched out the centers of the e and the o, just for fun:

Lastly, I went for a subtle neutral look using the papers from Timeless Elegance and Tip Top Taupe, heat embossing a sentiment from All Boxed Up on a vellum banner and mounting on top of some Jute ribbon and adding a punched heart:

I just can’t decide which one is my favorite!  Which one is yours?

Cassidy & family went to a new Greene Turtle restaurant in Bel Air, MD, for dinner and had her picture taken with their mascot!  Check out her boots!
