You're So Sweet


Last summer I ordered a couple of stamp sets from Love Cynthia.  I had planned to use them for thank you notes for Ellie's birthday party, but then the Lawn Fawn fairies set was so perfect for her Fairy Garden party I couldn't not use it, so these languished.

This week I decided enough was enough and pulled them out.  

One of my favorite things to use in putting together a card is a scrapbooking journaling card. Whenever Studio Calico has a sale on their Documenter kits I'll pick up a couple.  They really simplify card making, providing a natural anchor for your focal point.


I also pulled out some older embellishments, some acetate elements from Basic Grey's Spice Market collection, and some even older BG papers.

The stamped sentiment is from Ellen Hutson's Warm Fuzzies set.  

This card just makes me smile, hope it does the same for you!

    You are so right, Papertrey is having a big sale on their patterned papers and I just picked up a few of their monthly journal card sets thinking they would be great for a quick start to a card. So adorable! Glad you got the set out.

    Definitely made me smile! Loving how you're using the journaling cards! I need to take that inspiration--between those and patterned paper, I decided I need to use more--and use them up! :) Such a cutie lil card! :)

    I love this just because you used BG paper!! They were my favorite company and I miss their papers. This image is so cute on this card!!
