Butterflies and Flowers :)

For Simon Says Stamp "Flower Power" and "A little paper":

I LOVE floral backgrounds. I think they look so pretty and feminine. There's tons of cute papers in the Kneehighs 6x6 paper pad and I couldn't settle on just one. So I reused the paper strip technique I used in my previous card to showcase two different floral patterns.

I couldn't help but add some butterflies to the field of flowers. Spring is here :)

Pink and blue

For Simon Says Stamp "Things With Wings" and "a little paper".

I love all the pinks in the Kneehighs 6x6 paper pad. So I cut a bunch of strips to form a hot pink to pale pink background gradient. The bird journal card and the manuscript print card tucked behind are cut from a cut apart sheet included in Carta Bella's Take Note paper pad. I stamped the sentiment on the bird card.

great things in small packages...

...need petite cards to go with them.

I really wanted to showcase this horse and carriage stamp for the Simon Says Stamp "Passport to Fun" challenge but it's teeny-tiny and I worried if I put it on a larger card it would get lost. Instead I built up? out? what I mean is, I use a lot of foam adhesive on this one! It's a small card but it has tons of dimension. There's no chance you'd lose it!

Even better, it was just the right size to pair with all the pretty paper scraps I've been too frugal to throw away. Add in some rhinestone stars, some silver glitter and a touch of bronze metallic paint pen and you've got the perfect card to send a little joy to a princess (or princess-at-heart) in your life.
