Lucy's Inspiration Week Day 5

Just popping in to share a quick card I created from Lucy's Inspiration Week, Day 5 photo.  You can read more about it here but here's the photo! 

It's a photo of her adorable daughter's playmate.  Fun, huh!  

And, here is my card.  

I went with the baby theme and used some scraps of paper that I had in my stash.  

The adorable lion is from Papertrey Ink, Sweet Baby and the sentiments are from Glory Be.

Very fun! 

Thanks for the inspiration Lucy!  

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day! 

Star(dust) Shell-ebrate

I can't stop myself. 

I just had to use this little turtle!  

He's (or She's) just so darn cute!

I went back and forth on this card.  I must admit it was in pieces on my desk for a very long time.  I couldn't be happier with the end result.  I love the non-traditional sparkle behind the star and the fact that nothing besides the ribbon is straight.   

(Even the star is just slightly tilted.  I did that on purpose!)  

Everything is adhered with dimensional adhesive to give it extra interest, although it's a little hard to see in the photo.  

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!  

It's Your Baa-thday

Hysterical. 

Paper Smooches Party Posse cracks me up. 

Every time. 

Without fail. 

I'm obsessed. 

Anyways, here's my baa-thday card.  

I've really been trying to get away from what I am comfortable with... incorporating different design elements and layers.  I'm having so much fun.  

I love clean and simple but I am loving this too. 

It's so much fun to branch out and try something new.
:) 

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.  

Huge Birthday Dino Wishes

I'm back again with another card featuring one of Paper Smooches latest stamp sets, Party Posse.  

I've used this stamp set way more than I ever thought I would have.  Oh my goodness, I LOVE IT. 

I had planned to paper piece the t-rex but after I started out, I just loved the way he looked completely untouched...  and I never could bare to cover him up.  So, he's naked.  :)  

I found THIS card and had to try something similar.   I took what I had already finished, made a few tweaks, and made it my own.  

The handmade button is by Jane.
