Smile

I had this idea in my head for this card, so I just started putting it on the card. Sometimes (much like everyday life) things just don't come out as you'd hope. I'm not quite sure if I like this card or not yet. I like plenty of the elements - especially the banner (handmade, yes.) Hhmm . . . Let me know what you think - Is it a craft fail?

I inked the banner, flowers & letters for some added detail

& to match the dark purple in the trim.

The letters are stickers that I gave a little "lift" to, so they

would all be the same height across the trim, which is kind of thick.

This card was inspired by one challenge - See below for the link & details, so you can join in the fun & share your own creation:

Here Comes Baby!

This card is so sweet & perfect for any "baby" greetings. Think: announcement, congratulations or shower. Its color scheme is mainly blue, but it can be used for a baby boy, baby girl or unknown. It features sweet elements in soft colors & can even be framed to display in a baby's room.

This card was made exclusively for Hand Stamped Sentiments for their design team tryouts :)

Buttons & Daisies

I have lots of buttons. I bought them to use, but then I never used them. Waiting for something to use them on - for something in the future - for something else. I always think "I might need them for another project." Well, enough with the waiting & enough with the storing!

I decided this circle card is perfect for these buttons. The handmade flowers add doses of bright color & actually look quite well with the soft blues of the buttons.
