Oh Happy Day!

Using the Freshly Made Sketch this week for a Birthday card with a little interaction! I kept looking at this sketch thinking that it could possibly swing open and become more interactive. It turned out great and now I want to experiment with more ideas!

 

Opening the card to reveal the inside message!

How fun is that! Sometimes a flat card is just boring!

...and in high heels!

Today's card was created for the Inspired By challenge where I was not only inspired by the photo, but Laurel's "work it" card as well! I pulled in lots of blue from the photo, but just a touch of green too! I liked the sassy gal on Laurel's card and wanted to use this great sentiment from the new Women Scrapbook Statements stamp. The high heel is from a much older stamp set that maybe, possibly has never seen ink before?!?!

A Spring Hello!

I'm so excited for warmer weather, colorful flowers and Spring break vacation!! I pulled out an older irresistible chipboard flower and inked it up to coordinate with some fun new Chantilly papers and fabric! My goal was to use the Freshly Made Sketch to create a fun and bright card! Now that's a "happy" hello!

 

Chantilly & Dotty papers, pleated fabric and a chevron stamped tag....so many of my favorite things!!
