Happy Sunday, stampers! I am back after my blog break, and I wish I could say that I got my entire craft room neat and tidy, but unfortunately, it's only a wee bit better! I sure do have a lot of stamps! I will keep chipping away at my stash and keep working on the "tidy" part though!
Claire is our Paper Players hostess with week with a lovely sketch, and I pulled out a die I hadn't used for a while to bring it to life! Here's the sketch:
I dusted off my Sunflower dies and some retired Flower and Field DSP for my bright and cheerful card:
I diecut the sunflower from some Whisper White and Bumblebee cardstocks, and colored the center with some Bumblebee ink:
I polka-dot stamped and diecut some Granny Apple Green leaves, then stamped a sentiment in Granny Apple Green and fussy-cut it to layer on top of a stitched banner:
Cassidy was invited to her friend's birthday party and they went ziplining! COOL!
Enjoy your day and be blessed!

Welcome back! The craft room is always the hardest to tidy I think - but if you need more practice, you know where to find me! Now to your card - I just love this! That big flower is so sunny and cheery, this is totally the card I wish I’d made this week!! Your crisp flower suits your DSP perfectly. I love it!
ReplyDeleteI don't remember this sunflower, LeAnne! But I cannot imagine you not using it before - it's just the sweetest - love the two-piece center! Another beautiful DSP, too!
ReplyDeleteIs this a before, or after shot? They look pretty excited!

ReplyDeleteLeAnne, I can't put into words how much I LOVE this card! That DSP is perfect to showcase your gorgeous sunflower! I wish I owned this die. I would never take it out of your stash! Sunny, happy and full of color is the perfect card! As for as cleaning my craft room-----hmmmm I wonder if mine will ever be clutter free and clean. I will worry about that tomorrow, Scarlett!
ReplyDeleteLooks like Cassidy had a great time. What a fun birthday party idea!
