It’s Hip to be Square

DSCF2050
Happy Saturday!  I’ve got two square cards today!   The first is for The Kraft Journal’s Make it Monday and CASology 25, which both are looking for something NEW!  I got some new goodies so I made a fun little card to just say “hi”!

This is also for the challenge at A Blog Named Hero, which also is looking for new stuff!  

The next one uses the Freshly Made Sketches sketch #67:
and this card uses some new goodies too!

I finally got some Core’dinations cardstock, so that was diecut, embossed and sanded; I added some other hearts in pink, white and Twitterpated; and my scalloped piece is from a pretty little SU doily!  I added some pleated ribbon I snagged from the Clearance Rack along with a retired felt flower….so sweet!

As always, if you have any questions, please feel free to email me!  And be sure to stop back tomorrow for the first Paper Players challenge of 2013!
Cassidy came down to Grampy’s office to check up on him and get a cookie!

Isn't it fun to get new goodies. Nice to see that you use them. Great cards. I tend to put my stuff away and sometimes forget to use it.

Ah So sweet. I don't see the chocolate.
Love the cards! Did you stamp the back of the Hi one? Is it four stamps? Love that vintage pictures.
