Can you believe I have only recently discovered the wonder of embellishments? Don't get me wrong, I love ribbon like there is no tomorrow, but to be honest that was pretty much my ONLY embellishment go-to standard. Sad, I know.
However, I am happy to report that my embellishment lacking life has been kick started to a new fun level!
This is a fun card that I made using a Cork Calendar Sticker from Freckled Fawn, a fun resin camera and cute little sequins from Pretty Pink Posh.
My cousin Courtney had an adorable baby girl on the 28th of August and I thought the Cork Calendar sticker would be PERFECT as a fun little card to send her. I thought about adhering a sequin to the day or circling it, but the Heart Resin Camera was FABULOUS in outlining the birth day. I wanted to keep incorporating the heart from the camera so I did a heart punch border on the top of the white layer. Not sure I am thrilled with the outcome, but I don't necessarily HATE it. (Plus, I already put the calendar sticker on the paper when I did it. Oops!)
On the inside, I used the new Toes to Tickle stamp along with my ever favorite Wedding Dress stamp for the swirls to frame in the sentiment. I must say, the Happiness Is... series has got to be a favorite of mine. It's so stinking easy to customize a card with it!
So how fun is that?! I used 3 different types of embellishments in my card where normally I would have added a ribbon and been done with it! I am moving up in the world!!!
Here is the BEST part! You can actually find MOST of the embellishments on our website along with Flower Soft! Woo hoo!!!!! I am sad to say that we are not carrying Pretty Pink Posh sequins yet, but a girl can hope, right?
Until next time,
Happy Stamping!
