Hello Dear Friends
It's a new month and that means it's time for a new challenge over on our
LOVE THOSE PRETTY PAPERS blog.
Today, our OPTIONAL theme is
Summertime.
Diane & I
will be sharing a Themed pretty paper card as well as an Anything
Goes card.
Here's my card using today's THEME:
I bought these fun Summertime papers while visiting BFF Diane (Nellie's Nest) several years ago and thought they were perfect for today's card. The popsicle paper is a full 12x12 sheet also but I simply fussy cut a strip then matted it with a scrap of card stock and fussy cut again.
I created my sentiment by die cutting the letters then laying it out crossword style.
Now for my 2nd card (anything goes) ...
This card is simply an A-6 size panel cut from one of the MANY 12x12 Heartfelt Creations paper packs I purchased when they closed down their brick & mortar store in Indiana. All I did was add the Picket Fence sentiment. Easy Peasy!
I hope you've enjoyed what I created to inspire you today! Please come join our fun and show us what you have created using pretty patterned papers.
Thanks for stopping by and as always . . .
Your first card brings back memories of buying popsicles at the corner store when I was a kid. What a treat that was! Thanks for the memory, Darlene. The second card blows me away. I'm not sure I could have cut into this gorgeous paper even for a card this beautiful!
ReplyDeleteWonderful cards, the first one is super yummy with its citrus tones
ReplyDeleteI have to say it... what pretty papers! I'm loving the citrus colors, especially this summer since I got a new citrus die set. And I don't believe I've seen those Heartfelt papers before, but they're gorgeous! Papers like this really need their day in the spotlight, and I'm glad you're giving it to them.
ReplyDeleteTwo gorgeous cards with gorgeous papers, the first one screams sunshine and summer and the second is all about the pretty flowers of summer, great job!!
ReplyDeleteFun summer time card and I love the flowers in the second, neat sentiment!
ReplyDeleteLove both your cards Darlene. The first themed is so summer- the popsicle images look great. Thanks for another fun challenge.
